Going through my old games, here's a green question...

Are cases from my old PS1 and Dreamcast games recyclable?

They are 10 years plus old and they don't (I think) pre-date the recycle sign but recycling is so much more high profile these days that most plactics are stamped / moulded with the sign.

Just don't want to throw the cases out if I can do the green thing.

Anyone know the answer?

Cheers.

Rob

agreed , those games would be approaching collector status soon enough , I wouldnt throw away the cases and diminish the collector value at this point.

Cheers for the replies.

I have listed some games on Amazon rather than eBay as I know what i'll roughly get in return. eBay is too much of a gamble.

It's the games that i know that are worth nearly zilch that I'm gonna keep in a wallet (for the time being anyway) but throw the packaging that i'm really asking about.

If you've got any old dreamcast cases still which are in good nick i'll be more than happy to take them off your hands for postage costs

Now that's recycling!

OK. Let me double check the cases and I'll PM you. Probably not for a week or so as I'm on leave but I'll definitely you know.

Cheers .
