The writing on the stickers for my 2003 bootlegs is wearing off, especially on the binding. Anyone else experiencing this? Any ideas on fixing it, other than keeping the CDs in different holders?

i only have 1 from 03, but it doesnt seem to have that problem
It happened to me on the spine-sticker for a couple, because the damn things wouldn't stay on and when I rubbed them them to make them stick, the ink wore off easily. Cheap crap. I think one of my tracklisting stickers rubbed off a bit too.

Put packing tape, or nail polish over the sticker.

i have four 2003 bootlegs (Tokio, Perth, PENN STATE and NY I), and i don't know what you are talking about. what are stickers? (sorry, language barrier here...) i only got the cardboard sleeve and the cd.
anyway, i keep all my cds and dvds in individual zip bags; i have a special cd holder for my PJ collection, but i keep the empty covers in plastic bags, i never touch them (once or twice when i first buy the album).

Did you buy them in stores? I think everything you listed was commercially available outside of the Ten Club. If you bought them from the Ten Club during the tour, they all came in identical packaging with stickers you had to put on to distinguish them from each other. Now, I wish I hadn't even peeled them and stuck them on the cases.

tks, i didn't know that. so i was complaining for (almost) nothing that the record company did not release the bootlegs here in my country, because now i see that they have indeed released four out of six... and i'll check if i missed NY2, because until recently i didn't know there were two... a lot of catching up to do, now that i'm a 10C member...

When I got my 2003 CD in the post I opened it up in the car.
Days later I found the little sticker on the floor of the car.
When I received the others later in the post I was very careful opening them up. I wonder how many other ppl lost the sticker when they opened them up?

Rad idea.
Careful with packing tape or sticky tape with age it goes yellowey brown and starts lifting off

The only one of mine that has a lot of wear on the stickers is East Troy because it was the first one i got and the one i listen to the most. But since then i have been careful about not touching the stickers and such, and they are all holding up.
