Quality Inner Sleeves for Vinyl?

Posted by: JackRabbitSlims on 13 October 2010

Hi - I'm looking to buy some good quality inner sleeves for my vinyl collection.
What should I be looking for? Paper, plastic?
Where can I buy online that will ship international (if need be).
Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions offered.
JRS.

Mobile Fidelity Original Master Sleeves are the best, by some distance. If you're located in the US, they're easily obtainable, otherwise (are you in NZ?) you'll have to find a local importer, or have them shipped.

PS: Welcome to the Forum! (And have you posted in the best part of it, given your question?)

Mobile Fidelity Sleeves are excellent. You can get them from Acoustic Sounds - add in a few vinyls to make it worth shipping. Used to arrive in 5 days when I lived in Oz.

Thanks for prompt informative response graham55.

Yes, I'm in NZ.
I have been an active member on the Forum in a previous life, but have been "on the road" for the past 2 yrs and could not re-activate my old account - so have started fresh, but thanks for the welcome back.
I thought the "Music Room" would an ok location - the other Forum room seems to be dominated by Hardware / Technical questions.
Cheers.

Bunny, try the Nagaoka sleeves. I think they're the best and unlike the Mobile Fidelity, they fit nicely into the original lp sleeves.

OK - thanks for the info.

Website or good online source that you could recommend at all??

I just buy in batches from whoever is the cheapest at the time, and sometimes Ebay. Just make sure they're the original 102 sleeves and not "Nagaoka Style" or "made in the same factory".

Great film by the way, put me off shop basements.

I love the tyvek record sleeves from Cabco, and I have not used anything else in 15 years.
