1000 pcs White CD DVD Paper Sleeves Envelopes with Flap and Clear Window

I read all the reviews about these disc envelops. Several people indicated they were much more cheaply made than the Columbian brand envelops I used to buy from Sam's Club. I will not dispute the envelops are much thinner than the Columbian envelops and they also appear to wrinkle depending on the room's humidity, however, they perform just as well as the thicker, much more expensive Columbian brand. First off, the wrinkling issue disappeared within 20 minutes of leaving the envelops in the room to give them a chance to reach the relative humidity of the room. I noticed the wrinkling occurred whenever I bought a new batch up from my cool 50% humid basement to my dry and warmer 35% humid office. As soon as the envelops reached room temperature (and humidity) the wrinkles vanished. While I agree the Columbians did not show any signs of being affected by relative humidity, I assume this is the result of the thinner paper. I no longer consider this an issue since I've experienced copy paper do the same when I'd bring up a new ream from the basement. Although the envelops are thinner, I don't find them any weaker to tears or rips. While handling, they do feel a bit flimsy, but if you are using them to store discs over a period of time and the discs are not going to be handled regularly (ex. they will hold archive archived or stored backup disks) then these envelops are fine. If you are going to regularly handle the discs, then either use a jewel case or a more durable media holder. A couple of positive notes about the thinner envelops: 1.) They cause fewer paper jams in my inkjet printer than the Columbian brand envelops did. I suffer about a 2% failure rate when printing on these thinner envelops, vs. the 5-7% failure rate with the Columbians. This will save me around 50 envelops per 1000, a small but noteworthy savings.(I agree there are many factors that influence failure rates, but so far, in my situation, I'm jamming on around 2 envelops per 100, vs. 5-7 envelops per 100 when I use the Columbians.) 2.)The envelops take up less space than the Columbians. If 250 Columbian envelops takes up 10-inches and 250 of these envelops take up 5-inches, I am getting an additional 5-inches of storage space occupying the same footprint! (5-inches is around another 60 discs I can store in the same footprint.) Another note about printing - I am experiencing no bleed-through or ink bleed with these thinner envelops. (I use the automatic/regular paper print setting on my printer.) The window on these envelops is indistinguishable from the window on the Columbians. It appears to be made of the exact same material w/ the same toughness. The flaps appear to be 1-2mm shorter than the columbians. I had to make a 1-time minor adjustment in my print project to account for the shorter flap. The little tongue or notch that the flap folds into is about 2mm longer and more pronounced than on the Columbian envelop, but this design difference has no impact on performance. The paper folds and glue points are on the outside of these envelops, vs. the inside of the Columbian envelops. I've always wondered about this being a problem over the long haul since if the glue bleeds due to dampness or wetness, the glue on the Columbian would be more likely to bleed on the disk surface since its on the inside of the envelop. I doubt this is a real concern, but I thought I would mention it since these envelops have all their glue points at least a layer of paper between the glue and the written surface of the disk. (Printing over the glue points has been no issue and no envelop has failed, to-date, due to poor gluing. Lastly, someone said the flap folds are not pronounced enough and it caused uneven creases when folding the flap over. While I agree the flap fold is less pronounced, It has not caused any problems for me, like those described by the other reviewer(s) that mentioned it. In summary, I HIGHLY recommend these envelops since they come out to be around 1.5 cents each ($15 per 1000 envelops), instead of the 10 cents per envelop cost of the Columbians ($25 per 250 envelops). Also, if I consider failure rates, the per unit cost of the Columbians experience an additional, but slight, increase, due to higher failure rate I experience when using them. I go through about 2000 envelops per year so the savings is substantial to me. Around $30/yr for these vs. $180-200/yr. for the Columbians. One final thought...I can't believe I've spent so much time writing a review for an envelop! I hope my information helps! My recommendation is to go ahead and order a box. My order was fulfilled by amazon, so if you are not happy with them, you should be able to return them with little or no hassle. Good luck and Happy Savings!

The sleeves arrived in a timely manner and yes they are slightly thinner than the ones that I'm use to, but I still consider them descent quality. I mean after all media fits in them and you get a lot for your money. Some will debate that it feels cheap and its thin and vice versa but you get what you pay for. In my opinion I consider it money well spent. I mean think about how much money you would spend on a 50 pack or a 100 pack of cd/dvd sleeves? I gave this product five starts for quick delivery, descent quality and nice quantity.

The Linkyo CD/DVD envelopes that I ordered seemed like a good value to begin with. When they arrived, I noted that they were not quite as thick a paper or plastic as I have seen on some products, but I have been using them without hesitation, and with no complaints. The material is strong enough that it does not rupture or tear, and I don't expect there to be much of a wearing out problem with frequent handling. The slightly lighter weight might be considered as much of an advantage as not, giving modestly decreased weight or possibly a slight added capacity to a boxful of disks. Really, I would vote any differences between these and other products as insignificant; these envelopes work perfectly as well as any other brand that I have tried. If I order more envelopes, this will be a very satisfactory choice for me.

I purchased this product as I do a lot of recording on DVDs' and what I find in office supply and other stores are just too expensive. The paper is thin but adequate for the job. Most DVDs' are filed away once placed in the envelope and taken out once in a great while. Buying in bulk saved me a lot of money. In this case I got what a paid for, not the best quality product available, but good enough for the job and at a very attractive price.

These are inexpensive and are great just to have around the house. I purchased a large number of these to put DVD's in because I was making a large number of copies and giving them to students or to friends. It is always awkward just giving a disc with no case for it. These are cheap enough that I can keep them around and I am not put out by handing them away. They have a little tuck tab that allows it to close and they stack quite nicely. The CD/DVD fits perfectly in them and are a good fit. I would certainly recommend if you are making a large number of copies of a disc.

Ill be honest, i ordered these without really thinking. It will probably take me a very long time to use 1000 sleeves but ill use them eventually and the price was good. They are thin sleeves that come bundled in 100s. I assume i actually got 1000 because im not counting them. Some of the other sleeves you just put the disc and youre good to go. These, im not sure if its important, but you need to actually fold the flap. There is a crease in them so folding the flap only take a few seconds but form a business perspective time is money to some and you run the risk of human error when folding.

Like others I had doubts about the quality of these sleeves for the price. All considered they are a good buy. What you get is a 1000 paper sleeves broken down into 100 piece bundles. The actual sleeves themselves are thin, but do not tear and serve the purpose I need which is storage in my snap-n-store boxes with labels attached. If you looking for mailing sleeves I'd look on, but for the rest of us these are well worth the money!

Rating 5 stars because it's exactly what you'd expect and at a great price. 1,000 pieces in 10 sets of 100, each set in a small plastic bag. The paper is not thick, nor is the plastic, but you probably shouldn't be looking for considerable durability out of paper sleeves. That being said, I use these for home office use and transport of discs to others or for church and they have always held up fine. I think it will take me quite a while to get through 1,000 of them, but I would definitely reorder.
