BCW 33 RPM Record Sleeves - 100 ct | Polypropylene Vinyl Record Outer Sleeves | 2 mil Thickness | Vinyl Record Album Protectors

As a vinyl collector, I’ve always been cautious about keeping my records in pristine condition, and the BCW 33 RPM Record Sleeves are exactly what I needed. These polypropylene vinyl record outer sleeves are incredibly durable, offering 2 mil thickness to protect my albums from dust, scratches, and other damage. The 100-count pack is a fantastic value, and these sleeves fit perfectly on my 33 RPM records. The material is clear and resistant to static, which is important for keeping my vinyls in the best possible condition. They slide on easily and seal the record inside without being too tight or too loose. I’ve noticed that the sleeves don’t wrinkle or tear easily, providing long-lasting protection. Whether you’re a casual listener or a serious collector, these sleeves are an affordable, high-quality solution to preserve your vinyl collection. Highly recommend!

I ordered these somewhat reluctantly from Amazon after reading a couple reviews regarding the sleeves being the wrong size. I was somewhat perplexed since I had purchased these same sleeves at a local record store and never had any issues (other than occasionally encountering two or three bad sleeves per batch of 100). Happily, the batch I ordered exactly the size specified and work perfectly. They easily accomodate gatefold jackets and double LPs. Personally, I would prefer if they were a little bit shorter than 13 inches as that leaves quite a bit of overhang on a 12 inch LP sleeve, but other than that they are perfect. Even with the extra height, they still fit easily on my Ikea 'Expedit' shelves. The most important thing about these particular 'poly' sleeves is that they are polyPROPYLENE and not polyETHYLENE. In my experience, polypropylene sleeves are superior to polyethylene sleeves in almost every way. In fact, most people who sell LPs use polypropylene sleeves in spite of the fact that polyethylene sleeves seem to be far more available for retail sale. Here are the advantages: 1. Polypropylene sleeves are almost entirely clear and have a nice, glossy appearance. Polyethylene sleeves have a slightly opaque appearance (depending on their thickness). Most importantly, polypropylene sleeves retain their clarity while polyethylene sleeves gradually become scratched through wear and become more and more opaque over time. 2. Polypropylene sleeves are very smooth. This is important when you have many shelves of LPs with sleeves; While polyethylene sleeves tend to grip when they slide past each other, polypropylene sleeves slide past each other easily making removing and reshelving LPs easy. Although these sleeves are only 2mm thick, I have never had any problems with these sleeves tearing or being damaged in any way. I've tried many types and brands of LP outer sleeves. For me, these are the clear winner on both price an quality.

Great sleeves at a great price. Even fit the big double LPs with ease. Look clean and durable. Really happy with these.

I can't write from the perspective of the hardcore vinyl collector who obsessively dissects every detail of every possible thing related to his collection. That guy can probably tell you subatomic chemical composition of every brand of LP sleeve on the market, then argue about it with other collectors until nothing is resolved one way or the other. LOL, 'collectors'. I'm guessing there are a lot of you who are looking at this for the same reasons I was. You have vintage LPs, perhaps you're acquiring new-old copies as you run across them out in the wild and enjoy them mostly for the music inside but are still looking for a product to preserve the vintage covers that are, at a minimum, upwards of 30+ years old now. These fit the bill just fine. The closest thing I can equate these to are the old "penny sleeves" that are the baseline protection for sports cards. Likewise, these are about the same thing as the "bag and board" that you get for comic books. These are a thin, vinyl 'floppy sleeve' (as they were called years ago in the baseball card world) that doesn't provide much in the way of meaningful impact protection so if you have extremely pricey and rare LPs that get handled a lot and you're looking to protect there are other, beefier options. These are good for putting an inexpensive layer of protection on the entirety of your entire collection; to protect them from rubs, needless abrasions, got forbid spills and the like. Seeing as most all records in a given collection sit there on a shelf 99.99% of the time, this is a perfectly good product that suits a need. You can sleeve up a rather large collection for not much money. I have about 500 LPs now in them, all living happily better off than they were before these cases arrived. Five stars.

The sleeves are perfect for album storage- love the 2mil thickness! The downside was that the package of sleeves was folded in half and stuffed in an Amazon box that was not nearly the right size (I’ve had these delivered in a regular album-sized mailer with no problems). Because the packaging was folded in half, it split open and about a dozen sleeves fell out of the packaging- those were just wadded up and used as ‘padding’. So….A+ for the sleeves, but D- to Amazon for the packing…cmon- put flat square things in a flat square box!!

I've been looking for a super clear outer sleeve for my records since I want to start putting them up on the wall. Some of my records come with a signed insert so I wanted to make sure that I can put it in the same outer sleeve with the original record. I was at first worried that these wouldn't be clear and may come out cloudy, especially with how low the price is for 100 in a pack! But after reading and watching reviews, looking for the best sleeves all over the internet, I finally took my chance in buying this pack. I am very very happy with my decision, these are super clear! Although a bit thin and may rip easily, these were able to fit my 3lp records. I have the Ariana Grande "Positions Deluxe" as an example for reference and that record is pretty thick but this sleeve fit everything perfectly. In the photo, the only thing that didn't fit was the black outer sleeve thing that came with it, so I just put the regular plastic that the record came with to cover that part, but the actual sleeve with the records itself fit perfect inside this clear sleeve. My other record you see in the photo "Sweetener world tour live" has 3 LPs, and it fits perfect with enough spacing around on the edges. For anyone who is looking for crystal clear sleeves, this one is the one!! The price is amazing as well for the quality!

Well... I've seen SO many lousy reviews of this product, so I thought it only fair i give mine to add to the pile of confusion. I'm a relatively NEW vinyl enthusiast. I purchased these to get started in properly caring for my records. Saw alot of great reviews on it, and ALOT of UNgreat reviews. My review is, this is great! I've seen alot of people that said theirs are tearing and won't hold gatefold LPs, etc... Well, I'll touch on a few of these points ~ I'm 15-17 in, and not ONE has torn yet. In fact, I TRIED to tear one, and I actually couldn't, very easily. ~ I have quite a few Gatefold LPs, some are double LP 180 gram gatefold, it fit ALL of these without so much as a stretching. I even have one record, Black Sabbath's Live Evil, which is like a TRIPLE gatefold double LP 180 gram release, and it's HUGE. I thought sure it wouldn't fit...and it DID no sweat! I could easily see triple albums going into these without too much worry. So I'm not sure whats going on with everyone else's. ~ I was told by a vinyl efficianado that unless you plan to toss your vinyl in a lake, the really thick sleeves aren't necessary. So I went with the thinner 2 mil. Again, no worries as of yet, although admittedly I don't know exactly what to look for. So all in all, what I think is happening here is that the manufacturer isn't QC'ing their product very well. How can they, at this price? I'm sure some of the heat seals from sleeve to sleeve get botched from time to time, and it simply never goes through any process of verification instead comes straight to Amazon. Will I buy again? Actually probably not. Too many reports of faulty sleeves, although I have yet to find ONE! I'd say if you're a gambler... give it a go! It'll probably be fine!

Order was received timely and in excellent condition.
