Who did you order from??
I got my set from DigitalEyes.net. I've ordered from them before in the past and have always been pleased with them. The tins and another DVD I ordered had all been packed securely; the box had no dents or damage when I got it.
Annnnnnnnnnnnnd, I have good news.
What I thought were scratches on Disc 1 of the WWII set weren't scratches. I noticed that I could feel them when I ran my finger on them so I put a little water on the disc, and after some gentle rubbing, they were gone. I guess some sort of crud got on them during manufacturing. I really did think they were scratches, and I'd never had a disc that had "stuff" on it before. Oh well, I'm just glad it's not scratched up.
As for the tins themselves, I really do think the dents were made before the retailer received them. My tins arrived shrink-wrapped together, and it would seem to me that all four would be dented. As it were, the dents were on the second and fourth set in the stack, and they look almost identical. So, I conclude it was a manufacturing thing. I'm not upset about the dents; they're noticeable but not terribly so. I also forgot to mention that, with the exception of the WWII set, none of the tins close securely.
As for the cases, I thought I would contact Disney DVD support and ask if they can send replacements. Otherwise, I will check Tower, as I know they carry empty cases. However, I don't think I've seen double keep-cases there.
. But at least I've learned my lesson for the next treasure wave
