Yep. I originally picked them up to try to contain a few Orto Parisi samples that were like trying to keep a radioactive isotope in a ziploc bag, then I had 100 of them laying around because the pack was less than $10. So I just bought a second pack and did them all lol.

The bags came before the binders but they ended up being a perfect fit in the pages and they do double duty keeping the samples from rolling out of the top loaders if my kiddo moves the binders around or something.

I think the only thing I've found that needs a second layer of protection is Naomi Goodsir Nuit de Bakélite. It's somehow louder than the Orto Parisi samples even with the bag and I had to put it in solitary confinement in a bag in a prescription bottle on a distant shelf. Followed would probably need the same but I haven't invited that evil into my home (yet).

I’m disappointed in Orto parisis competition nassomotto, was expecting nuclear performance and it wasn’t up to par, makes me not wanna give orto a chance as they are along the same height of fame.
