I finally bit and ordered a restock from SC the other day. Hopefully they ship without too many months delay.

Like many of you, I recently got a backordered SC order. Unfortunately, it sound like the doubles might be unavailable for a while (from a SC email):

My order for 100 UO 2.5s and 100 inners placed last week just sent a shipping notice today, so they’re stocked and shipping (for now) unless this is a mean “label created” situation.

So, tracking never updated past “label created” but my entire shipment just arrived. So… yay? I guess?
Anyone got a current spot to order decent sleeves?
I thought I had a good pile of Sleeve City sleeves ready to go, but just saw that all of them are inner sleeves I forgot I ordered.
Sleeve City is backordered to October.

I ordered some of these just to get me through...Amazon says I'll get them later today.

ClearBags has been my go to. Sleeve city’s are nice but I haven’t been able to wait for them to restock. ClearBags are nice and crystal clear.
I'll see how these are when they arrive. But I'll try Clearbags if I need to.
I assume you use these?

Yea pretty sure those are the ones I have. They are crystal clear but I do like Sleeve City’s better. I think @AnthonyI may have given them a shot?I'll see how these are when they arrive. But I'll try Clearbags if I need to.

I like them, they're backups at the moment, I still like the SC better, but have some stock left for now. But ya, the backorder are just crazy now.

I saw these a while back and actually wanted to give them a try, but shipping from Canada was a tad expensive..........unless something has changed.

I remember watching this video. This guy has basically taken the Blake Sleeve(the ClearBags sleeve) and modified it. It’s a cool concept. If my collection was in its early stages I would have considered it, but the price versus quantity isn’t worth it to me. He also make an inner sleeve that’s supposed to be a little sturdier than a MoFi but again you’re spending more.

Dunno, I just spent $44-ish bucks on 125 inner sleeves. I really like them from the first batch I bought. This is the third batch I've purchased now. Since sleevecity is basically dead until October I may just also switch to his 4 Mil outers too.

Damn, MusicDirect just raised their bulk discount prices on their MoFis by a $1
