I am looking for an external dvd drive case which has firewire and
USB.
so i can use it on my mac and PC (firewire port less).
In 3 months of checking ebay.co.uk i have only seen one turn up.
Has firewire disappeared over in the states as it seems to have over
here?
Do any specialist mac dealers still sell them?
OWC sells a versatile enclosure:

On the other hand, if you are satisfied with FireWire 400, and do not
require FireWire 800, a complete high-quality drive with LightScribe
can be ordered at about the same cost:

LaCie even sells "reconditioned" units for only $45:

I have had very good experience with LaCie "reconditioned" hard drives
and optical drives.
