For the slipcover addicts: Do you keep your stickers on them? - Blu-ray Forum

shinseiRomeo · 08-08-2010, 10:59 PM

I've been fighting myself for ages but have always left the stickers for things such as "bonus digital copy" or "featuring exclusive content" stickers on the front of my slips and even the packaging for TDK LE. I do remove any store stickers and use Goo Gone to take care of any leftover residue.

So how about it, do you leave the stickers on or prefer a clean look?

Kynch · 08-08-2010, 11:36 PM

I take it allllllllll off.

blufellas · 08-08-2010, 11:39 PM

all off

crazyBLUE · 08-08-2010, 11:40 PM

I remove all of mine as well .

MaCruz · 08-08-2010, 11:45 PM

Hell No!!!

Goo Gone, and Q-tips I keep by my side.

rockyoumonkeys · 08-08-2010, 11:50 PM

Definitely take them off if I can.

If it's too difficult, I leave it on with the intention of figuring something out later. My Fight Club still has the price sticker on it, I think that might be it.

All off thank you

I used to. I liked the way it looked on my Iron Man and Incredible Hulk Blus because it made them look newer, but after awhile, it lost it's effect and now I take everything off of the slipcover.

I take the price sticker off. If the sticker has something to do with the movie ("3-DISC COMBO PACK", etc.), I leave it on.

philip74 · 08-09-2010, 12:59 AM

factory stickers stay on, price stickers come off.

Blu-ray Fanatic · 08-09-2010, 01:03 AM

I usually take them off but sometimes I get lazy and leave them on.

jrmac2000 · 08-09-2010, 01:28 AM

Tyger · 08-09-2010, 01:30 AM

All off. Carefully!

shinseiRomeo · 08-09-2010, 01:30 AM

What about stickers that are for store exclusives, such as Fast & Furious from Best Buy with the bonus disc? I'm still kicking myself for not saving the Inglorious Basterds Target sticker that was on the plastic. I did save the glued on backing stating it came with the soundtrack, but not the small Target sticker.

All off. Over time, even the factory stickers will deteriorate, and the remaining residue may very well ruin that slip, so off they go as soon as they get home.

This man is speaking the truth. The stickers will eventually deteriorate and look awful.

hardtosayx · 08-09-2010, 03:40 AM

Price stickers I usually take off all the time, but not always right away. Otherwise I leave them on there.

Minimejer05 · 08-09-2010, 05:18 AM

I remove store stickers. Factory stickers stay. I need to get some goo gone to get rid of the residue.

Trace17 · 08-09-2010, 05:38 AM

All stickers are off when I'm halfway through the exit door.

HDMe · 08-09-2010, 08:47 PM

All stickers come off... but not all are thrown away!

Price stickers go in the trash... as do generic "comes with dvd" or "limited time only" stickers...

BUT... if the sticker uniquely identifies it with the movie... say a Disney movie has a sticker that says "digital copy" and the sticker has Disney character graphics on it... then I peel that sticker off carefully and re-stick it on the inside of the case somewhere for posterity.
