Record sleeves?

I have been adding alot of used vinyl to my collection, the question I would like to ask you guys is what do you use as inner sleeves. I usually use VRP inner sleeves at $45 per c
it was racking up reel quick (used I have been averaging about 20 to 25 per 2 weeks). So I decided to find a less inexpensive source, I purchase my 3mil outer bags at bags unlimited. I talked to them on the phone about poly inner bags at $12 per c they assured me about the poly bags would not hurt the vinyl. After receiving them I am reluctlent to use them am issues of static and scratching. Do I bite the bullet on this one and continue to use the ricepaper VRP sleeves? David

Should you ever have a fire or excessive heat anywhere near your vinyl treasures, the poly sleeves can melt right into the vinyl. HP lost a lot of Absolute Sound recommended records during a house fire. Nothing is better for your records than good rice paper sleeves. If you love your records as much as I do (fifty years worth), you would not think of using anything else.
