The invention claimed is: 1. A device for displaying goods, said device comprising a set of edge-defining members, each of the edge defining members being configured to cooperate with wall members that have peripheral portions thereof located and retained within recesses of connection portions which each have a generally S-shaped profile and which each contiguously connect a first arm that leads from a vertex of the edge defining member, with a second arm that is configured to press against a wall member, and wherein the first arms define an air gap adjacent the vertex of each edge member, wherein each recess tapers so as to provide a clamping action on each peripheral portion of the wall members located therein, and wherein each wall member comprises indicia. 2. A device for displaying goods, said device comprising a set of edge-defining members, each of the edge defining members having a set of wall members which are each unitary with the respective edge defining member, each wall member having a peripheral portion thereof located and retained within a recess of one of said edge-defining members, the recess being defined by a pair of arms, only one of said arms being located, in use, adjacent the goods to be displayed, the other arm being distant, in use, from said goods and defining an air gap adjacent a vertex of the goods, wherein each recess tapers so as to provide a clamping action on each peripheral portion of the wall members located therein, and wherein at least one of said edge-defining members is resiliently deformable so as to absorb energy from an impact therewith. 3. A device for displaying goods, said device comprising a set of edge-defining members, each of the edge defining members having a set of wall members which are each unitary with the respective edge defining member, each wall member having a peripheral portion thereof located and retained within a recess of one of said edge-defining members, the recess being defined by a pair of arms, only one of said arms being located, in use, adjacent the goods to be displayed, the other arm being distant, in use, from said goods and defining an air gap adjacent a vertex of the goods, wherein each recess tapers so as to provide a clamping action on each peripheral portion of the wall members located therein, and wherein at least one of said edge-defining members is fabricated integrally from one selected from the group consisting of polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene, hardboard, plasticized cardboard, and a mixture of wood or paper pulp and a rubber material. 4. A device for displaying goods, said device comprising a set of edge-defining members and a set of wall members; each wall member having a peripheral portion thereof located and retained within a recess of one of said edge-defining members, wherein said recess tapers so as to provide a clamping action on said peripheral portion of the wall member; wherein at least one of said edge-defining members comprises: a pair of interconnected, non-parallel, first arms being distant, in use, from said goods and defining an air gap adjacent a corner of the goods; and a pair of second arms being located, in use, adjacent said goods, each of said second arms being connected to one of said first arms by a connecting portion to define a half of the edge-defining member, said half having a generally S-shaped profile in cross section; wherein a portion of each of said second arms is arranged in non-parallel relations to the respective first arm to define said tapering recess. 5. The device according to claim 4, comprising an equal number of the set of wall members and set of edge-defining members. 6. The device according to claim 4, wherein at least one of said edge-defining members is fabricated integrally from one selected from the group consisting of a plastics material, wood, and a composite material. 7. The device according to claim 4, wherein, in said half of the edge-defining member, the portion of the second arm that is arranged in non-parallel relations to the respective first arm is a proximal portion connected to the respective connecting portion, said second arm further comprising a distal portion contiguously extending from said proximal portion away from and parallel to the respective first arm. 8. The device according to claim 7, wherein, in said half of the edge-defining member, the proximal portion of the second arm and the respective connecting portion together define said recess that is tapered and open toward the distal portion. 9. The device according to claim 8, wherein, in said half of the edge-defining member, the connecting portion and the first arm are parallel. 10. The device according to claim 7, wherein said distal portion is slanted at an obtuse angle relative to said proximal portion. 11. The device according to claim 10, wherein said obtuse angle is close to 180 degrees. 12. The device according to claim 7, wherein said first arms are slanted at an acute angle relative to each other. 13. A device for displaying goods, said device comprising a set of edge-defining members and a set of wall members; each wall member having a peripheral portion thereof located and retained within a recess of one of said edge-defining members, wherein said recess tapers so as to provide a clamping action on said peripheral portion of the wall member; wherein at least one of said edge-defining members comprises: a pair of interconnected, non-parallel, first arms being distant, in use, from said goods and defining an air gap adjacent a corner of the goods; and a pair of second arms being located, in use, adjacent said goods, each of said second arms being connected to one of said first arms; wherein a portion of each of said second anus is arranged in non-parallel relations to the respective first arm to define said tapering recess; and each of said second arms has a distal portion parallel to said respective first arm. 14. A case, comprising a plurality of wail members and edge-defining members assembled together to form said case; each of the edge-defining members comprising a pair of interconnected, non-parallel, first arms and a pair of second arms, each of said second arms being connected to one of said first arms and comprising a proximal portion arranged in non-parallel relations to the respective first arm to define a tapered recess in which a peripheral portion of one of said wall members is retained; and a distal portion contiguously extending from said proximal portion away from and parallel to the respective first arm. 15. The case according to claim 14, wherein each of said wall members has two opposite peripheral portions each being retained in the recess of one of said edge-defining members. 16. The case according to claim 15, wherein each of said edge-defining members includes two said recesses in which peripheral portions of two wall members are retained, respectively. 17. The case according to claim 14, wherein at least one of said edge-defining members is resiliently deformable so as to absorb energy from an impact therewith. 18. The case according to claim 14, wherein the proximal portion of each of said second arms is connected to the respective first arm by a connecting portion to define a half of the respective edge-defining member, said half having a generally S-shaped profile in cross section. 19. The case according to claim 18, wherein, in said half of the edge-defining member, the proximal portion of the second arm and the respective connecting portion together define said recess that is tapered and open toward the distal portion. 20. The case according to claim 18, wherein said half of the edge-defining member, the connecting portion and the first arm are parallel. 21. The case according to claim 14, wherein said distal portion is slanted at an obtuse angle relative to said proximal portion. 22. The case according to claim 14, wherein said first arms are slanted at an acute angle relative to each other. 23. The case according to claim 14, wherein at least one of said edge-defining members is fabricated integrally from one selected from the group consisting of polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene, hardboard, plasticized cardboard, and a mixture of wood or paper pulp and a rubber material.
