- Description
- In 1985 Algonquin Records sold almost all of the CDs at the same price- $12.98. At first, the manufacturers shipped the CDs in long, clear plastic clamshell cases to highlight the shiny discs. Later they were housed in printed cardboard longboxes. After a while they just shipped them in shrinked wrapped jewel cases. If the newer jewel cases were shrink wrapped inside the longbox there was an 'X' sticker placed on the outside of the box so dealers knew if they could take the merchandise out of the longboxes as sealed jewel cases for their own displays.
