advise on glass cube cases

Ive seen a number of beautiful glass cases with crome connectors at shows. Im thinking of adding a few (for higher priced items ) to my booth.  Can anyone give me advise on wether I should use tempered glass or plexiglass  .. Im worried plexi will scratch. but it would be lighter to carry.  Also where to look for these types of cases.   Thanks everyone!    gail See More
