I prefer my method
Thin layer 2 mm foam
5 mm thick card board all sides inc top + bum
In jiffy bag
Not had a complaint yet
But then I don't check my emails so who knows

I think he's not talking about "how to wrap them for shipping" instead he wants to show us how he stores steelbooks at home.

Edit: I also buy those wraps where I just have to put it in.

It is the same company you are buying stuff to protect your steelbooks.

Maybe you will find more of those slipcovers on the official site of that shop.

But for me those slipcovers are better because you can take the steelbooks easier out of the slipcovers if you want to look at the inside artwork of the steelbook for example.

No they are open like slipcovers for ps3-games.

But for me they protect the front and backcover of the steelbook better because they are more robust.

Those slipcases are an awesome idea for all the loose steels. I am going to have to order some G1 and G2 sized ones. I have too many steelbooks, though; it is going to be expensive. :/ lol
