Binder Recommendation

I am a casual collector so I have a lot of questions that I won't get into. One question I would like help on is a recommendation for a binder that will fit Vario sheet approx 9 x 9. The three holes do not fit a standard 3 ring binder due to spacing between holes. Thanks a

Casual or otherwise all questions and info sought are welcome at this forum. Sorry I do not use vario's so I will let someone else answer that.

All the Vario pages I have are punched for just about hole combination you can think of, including standard 3-ring binders, 4-ring binders and others. Without knowing what hole punch dimensions you have, it's impossible to recommend a binder. You say "three holes" but then why don't they fit 3-ring binders? Are you absolutely sure? I'm a bit stumped, I have to tell you. I also haven't ever seen a Vario page that is that small. 9 x 9" is an unusual size. Maybe they're not "Vario" brand pages? Is that a possibility? I think we need more info to help you -- or at least I do.

I'm stumped too. As regards binders, I like Lighthouse. I just wish they had "D" rings in their Classic series.

If Lighthouse makes 9x9 pages (never have seen any), they would also make a binder for it.

The closest would be the Optima range, which is around 8 x 10, but I suspect that the OP's given a rough measurement for Vario.

I use Nordfrim, among others, for Lighthouse binders - you get free postage if you waste enough money.

Ok, Guess I was wrong, the pages are maybe a Vario clone as fr as construction and material but not Vario brand. The sheet measures 9 x9, has three hles , top and bottom holes measure 1 3/4 from top and bottom edge and measure 2 3/4 between them and center hole. I was hoping that someone would be familiar with this odd size and could recommend a binder as I can't find a generic one at Staples or Office Depot. Thanks again for everyone's time and help

I checke Subway's catalog and looks like SAFE makes a 9x9¾ binder but not sure if they make pages like that. You may contact them to see if they know anything.

Thanks for the help. Someone suggested I call Mystic Stamp and they were able to identify a binder that would fit these pages (First day binder)

I'll just tell you what I'd do. Rather than trying to repair a system that needs lots of fixing, it's nearly always better to start over with a simpler system. With these kinds of stamp pages, using the standard stamp pages others use and which are easily available and fairly cheap and which have many binder options available, would be the way to go. In other words, scrap the small pages you have which you're trying to cope with in favor of some actual Vario pages.

You can buy packets of Vario pages very inexpensively on Amazon and ebay that will work out to around 70 cents a page or so. And you can use any of the Lighthouse binders that fit them. The Vario F binder is really nice, but any sturdy three-ring binder will work if you need to save money.

Problem solved, and you won't have your page and binder problem anymore. Good luck whatever you do!
