This is a matter about me just being a really picky collector, but I'd appreciate the help of anyone who knows about the deluxe edition reissues. My ABBA CD collection consists of the 2001 remasters (which were released here in the US, unlike the deluxe editions). I've decided that I'd love to replace them with the deluxe editions, but there's one catch - I'd really prefer to have the jewel case versions. I don't really like digipaks in general, and the deluxe ones are especially big and clunky. I know that all 8 (not sure about Gracias) deluxe albums were released in jewel case versions, but looking at American sellers that are selling imports, the digipaks are way more common and cheaper too. Are the jewel case versions super rare or something? Is it a lost cause or does someone know a decent way I could purchase at least a few of them online?

I would like to get the album CD+DVD album sets packaged in jewel case but were they all released in jewel case in Europe? On Discogs I can find jewel case versions of all but the first two albums "Ring Ring" and "Waterloo".
I'm aware that at least for the "The Visitors" set (2012) they used a more recent remaster than for the 2001 CD reissue campaign. The 2012 wasn't brickwalled like the 2001 release. Is this the case for all the CD+DVD issues?

The original (limited) digipack versions were replaced with jewel case versions as soon they were sold out. Waterloo and probably especially Ring Ring apparently didn't sell as well as the other Deluxe versions and therefore to my knowledge weren't replaced yet (while the latest Deluxe version Gracias... was already).
All Deluxe versions except for the first two, Arrival and The Album, were significantly remastered to a sound being more rich which is closer to the first Polydor CD releases.
