Hi!
Was wondering where Y'all get your Plastic sleeves for magazines?
Are there any websites or sellers you can recommend?
I usually get mine at a comic shop around here...The Small magazine-sized ones aren't bad,but the large(Life) magazine size are hard to find and expensive.
Any thoughts are appreciated!

I used to buy them at a dollar store. I found a pack of 15 for $1, (about 7 cents each) which I thought was good, but then I found a box of 200 for (I think) $8.95 Canadian at Bureau en Gros in Montréal. (aka Staples Business Depot). That would be about $5.97 US for the box, or 3 cents each. I don't know if it gets much better than that, and no shipping cost.
I sell a lot of vintage ads too, and brochures, etc. The plastic sleeves put on a really good impression, especially when I tape the plastic sleeve to a thick sheet of cardboard cut to fit inside the envelope. It costs so little and makes such a big difference. For really expensive items I use a Ziploc bag, or large clear bags (sold in grocery stores along with Ziploc bags.
BTW: I may be slightly off on the price, but not by much.
