IKEA Detolf Display Cases

I've been wanting to get a couple of these, but with us not having an IKEA store locally, the cost of shipping is insane ! I just spoke with one of their customer service reps, and whether I buy one or two cases, and even though the value of two cases is only 25% of the $600 limit, the shipping costs to Nova Scotia are $159.00 alone ! That's the same cost of the two cases ! Does anyone have any other suggestions besides these Detolf display cases, or perhaps a better solution to help with the costs of shipping ? I need to get my TF's into their proper place and on display rather than in a storage box. Appreciate the help !

Jysk in Dartmouth Crossing has/had similar cases, I bought one there a couple of years back, though I can't seem to find it on www.jysk.ca.

Yeah same here... I also got one from Staples 2 years ago. Not sure if they carry it still. Only thing is it didn't have doors.

You can get the glass cut from a glass cutter for a few dollars each. Then rip down some wood at Home Depot, dato it with a groove for the glass and presto. Not hard to make.

Those are pretty cool I thought about picking a couple up to display some of my Baseball cards and other related items. We have one in Dallas about 2hrs away. Good luck with your delima
