I notice that one of the slides in my used Dansco 7070 has some scratches. Where can I get new replacements? Thanks

You might be able to get the acetate sheets at a local office supply. Just cut to size.

I watch for good used albums at local coin shops. If they have the
right size slides I need, and are in good shape and the price is right I
picked them up.

These are always notoriously difficult to come by, if the posts I've read on these in the past years are any indication. You'd think Dansco would produce and market replacement slides.
I think any of the above 3 suggestions is a good bet for you.

Thanks, everyone. I'll check a near by office supply store. If they don't carry the right product, I'll try the ebay source. Ham |

That should work. I do not know how thick they are, but I doubt they are too thick for the album. You will probably want to cut them with a utility knife and straight edge. I have had back luck cutting stuff like that with scissors. Make sure you have a good backing board, something you do not mind having some slices.  |

Seems like a good deal - for $10 shipped you can probably make new slides for 2-3 albums since you get 5 pages.

Received them in the mail yesterday. I think the new material is a touch thinner. I cut one to size using an X-ACTO and it fits perfectly. Thanks to all for the help. Ham

Excellent!  I was wondering about the thickness. As long as it is thick enough to stay in place. Too thick might have had issues sliding into place and stretching the outer layer. |

I bought the sheets, used a sharpie to mark the size and used a paper cutter.
Worked great!

Those are acetate and should be just fine, Ham1947. |
