Your OBI´s

[thinkingoutloud89]

What do you do with you OBI´s? Do you put them into the package or let them outside of the CDs on your shelve? At the moment mine are outside, but I think later on I will put them into the package, only the ones from Kuu´s 12 Singles not^^

[micster]

I have my obi's on the cd's on my bookshelf

I have the plastic foil stuff on my desk with other important packaging

[sexysaucestar]

I keep my OBIs inside the CD case. At first, though, I kept them separate from the CDs...I kept all the OBIs in a drawer. But my friend showed me a better way to store the OBIs hahaha

[shavoingin]

for singles i keep the obis on the case but for albums i put it inside the case

[Annabelle]

I usually put them in a box, but I'm thinking about putting them in their CD case now

[Keishi]

put it inside the case. That's the safest way.

Outside if you can open the shrink wrap cleanly (applies only to Japan version), otherwise, inside the jewel case and between the booklet it goes.

[ohsixthirty]

i pop the cd holder part up and put the obi there behind the cd, along with any stickers or whatever that were on the plastic wrap.

[orenji_jaro]

wow you guys collect obi strip? o.o e? i threw mine

[Piccolo]

I keep mine inside the shrinkwrap, outside the case, where it started basically.

Mine are all in a little box

[realize_!]

outside the CD case but I might start putting them inside the jewel case now.

[elepop]

In the garbage.

[orenji_jaro]

well i still think why some foreign people put so much care on their obi strip? o.o

[shavoingin]

i think the cd looks naked without the obi lol

[elepop]

When I buy a CD, I rip the plastic out, take the obi out and throw it in the garbage. I don't care for the obi at all... XD

singles look nasty without the obi, and the value goes way down, id never buy a cd without one unless its an american release

[Calico]

I just put them on the outside of the case on the bookshelf. If they're different colors, have pictures on them, etc, then a big woo.

orenji_jaro: Well, for one, most western artists don't have OBI's of any kind. So for some people it's a cool and different thing that sort of sets Japanese CDs from others. And sometimes, if you wish to sell them later to other foreigners, some people are willing to pay more for a single/album that has an OBI than one that doesn't.

[BanFan]

Haha. I just threw away all of my OBIs.

^Now your cds are worth less.

I put mine in the case sometimes. I usually just save the wrapper they came in and slip them back in it when I'm done. Looks to pretty when it looks brand new. Sometimes I do slip them inside when using them though.
