So I was recently poking around on Amazon looking for Dust Protectors for my Super Nintendo cartridges (I keep them in shoe boxes right now to prevent them from getting dusty and such) and I discovered that the only bulk is six packs.  I have roughly thirty-four to thirty-seven Super Nintendo games.

I'd prefer to buy in bulk.  Let's round off and say I'd like to be able to purchase 40 dust protectors at once.  So here's my question: Does anyone know any good, and low priced, online retailers where I can purchase a large bulk of Super Nintendo cartridge dust protectors?

Thanks in advance.

this site has everything, not just super nintendo...browse their store if you want anything else too, and i've ordered from them twice now, happy with the service and product both times. though be aware that i did find a small number of defective ones, but it was less than 10 in an order of 200.

I second Jim's store.  I've purchased from him several times and like the shiny look of the games when they are in the box protectors. Silent Service never looked better.

This site is great but I think OP is looking for the official dust sleeves that came with every cartridge originally. The ones that cover just the bottom opening of the cart.

Are you looking for official, or third party ones? Lukie Games is running a deal now with 20 for $35, and these are the official ones:

ah rereading the OP now i see that you're probably right, though personally i find that the official ones for nes or snes are pretty much garbage if you want real dust protection. snes is better than nes for that though.

I'm not sure which ones I have just that they seem to work ok.  Right now I'm keeping my games in two shoe boxes but since I have more games on my list to obtain I'm starting to run out of room lol.  It's the ones that slip on like a cap and have that square logo with the four elipses for a logo.

ahh you want the official ones then, i don't know if you could find those in bulk...and the 6 packs that you already found may or may not be reproduction, if that bothers you at all. your best bet is to maybe start a WTB topic in the sale forum here or keep browsing ebay and see if any show up. otherwise i'm not sure...the ones i linked to earlier were different from what you were thinking, but i find them better because they encase the entire cartridge.

Question about Lukie Games.  How often do they stock the bulk of dust protectors?  I'm on a budget so I don't know if I can purchase them this month or not, but I also don't want to miss out if I can purchase at a later date.
