Any recommendations on antistatic sleeves? Does everyone use them?

Thanks!

Using the AoS search facility will bring up all sorts of useful info on that subject.
People have preferences over what type of sleeve they prefer. My favourite is the D-shaped type that slip into a normal paper sleeve and I've yet to find anyone supplying them for a better price than Snow Records in Japan (http://shop.snowrecords.com/accessories/?sort=newest) (even if you include the cost of getting them here).

Yes I use Nagaoka No.102. After washing Lps I give them an Anti-Static blast from ZeroStat and put them in the Nagoaka sleeves.

I buy these 'unbranded' sleeves sold by SRM Tech that are supposedly the same as the Nagaokas for a tenner less. I cannot fault them.

Great, thanks to all for your help!!

It seems that these sleeves have all the advantages of the others, plus the are a bit more stiff so easier to slide on/off.

I buy standard poly linned paper inner sleeves from a company called Cover 33.. I have not had a single issue with static.

Have tried many different types of the years (including those marketed by Nagaoka, MFSL and SRM-TECH, but these are the best I have come across so far http://www.sleevecityusa.com/Diskeeper-2-0-Antistatic-Record-Sleeves-p/9235.htm

Despite the high shipping cost, which is not subject to import duty or VAT, 100 of these excellent sleeves can be had for £30.00 at current exchange rates. Better still, buy some next time you or someone you know visits the U.S.A; in which case 100 sleeves can be yours for around £12.50!

Last time I bought any from my supplier (see post above) they were £13.00 per 100 incl. postage from Japan.
