Recommendations for inner sleeves

I've just bought some Goldring inner sleeves and they are just fine. Not sure where the 'tad oversized' came from.

I've been using the Nagaoka sleeves for 20+ years and have never had a problem with them. They do the job and are reasonable priced.

Alears,

It was one of the many forums I am now frequenting where someone mentioned when you put the Goldring sleeve into the record cover a bit of it sticks out ? If you have no such protuberance issues then that is good enough for me

Thanks, Paul.

The Nagaoka are reasonable so perhaps I will get some of those and some Goldrings and see what I prefer.

Nige, I haven't bought any for years, but if the Nagaoka ones are 'record shaped' at the bottom, rather than square, then I used to find them harder to insert into the outer sleeve.

The MF ones were always the biz, but if there are issues then I'd go with sampling a few.  

I used to get a lot of poly lined paper sleeves from the record companies 'back in the day' before CD, because many liners were paper only.  I see they are still on sale, e.g on Amazon at £3.99 for 20, much cheaper than the branded stuff.

 

I hate the Nagaoka ones for this reason and now, happily, use Goldring sleeves.

I use the ones from Covers33 - very reasonable.

Thanks for all the comments. I think I'm going to give the Goldring sleeves a go for my first batch.

Hate is a strong word. It's a record sleeve!! 

 

 

Don't go there, it's not worth it...

Nagaoka's for me, the shape's never bothered me.

+1 for Nagaoka sleeves:)

It's not just the shape that i dislike.  I find them really difficult to open to put the record back in' it's a bit like trying to open a brand new supermarket carrier bag.  I tend to keep them in the cardboard inner sleeve, if there is one, and the shape means they partially rotate within it.

Hi

Like you vinyl is back into my live after 25 year, who thought that would be possible...

I use the MOFY inner sleeves and love them, my Rega dealer represents them in Portugal so it's easy to me to buy them, bought this week a pack of 50 for 20 euros, each piece at 0,40 cents. 

I'm cleaning myself all my vinyl record, just came across in a Potuguese forum with a cheap and simple solution to wash the records, I might just open a thread to share my findings.

I've tryed so many solutions and this one rocks all the other ones out of the ring!

Really? I did 7 or 8 new ones last night (found a charity shop that had clearly taken in someone's discarded Blue Note collection, 50p each, immaculate!), no issues at all, might I recommend a good hand cream, put a bit of moisture back into your skin? I don't need it personally, greasy enough as it is...

Grab the handles, pull them away from each other, you'll see a couple of pointy bits stick up just inside of the handles, open from there, easy!

They can do, if the original inner sleeve is creased especially but I've always found completely square ones fold at the corners anyway if you try to put them back into an original sleeve, so I think it's as broad as it's long.

Please do, I'd be interested to see that.
