I made the mistake of putting my cards in the top loader without the sleeves, then I googled this midway through. This is very good and handy knowledge to know, I corrected my mistake, lucky the cards I have arent worth much, but always good to know regardless :)

If you get a clear dragon sleeve, it won’t move around like a penny sleeve

Thank you for this great video.

Something I like to do is put my toploaders in the bags Ultra Pro makes for their one touch magnetic cases. That way you don’t have to store them upside down to prevent particles from getting in. It also ads another layer of protection against moisture and other such things. However, although the bags are crystal clear, they do add a fourth layer of reflective material which may slightly diminish the displayability of the card.

Thank you for video. Just started collecting pokemon cards for my daughter. I have a great high end binder that is ringless and zippered that you side load your cards in. I put the cards in a ultra pro penny sleeve that is pvc/acid free and then side load in the binder. The other day I went to get a closer look at a card and when I took it out the binder and went to remove from the penny sleeve, the card was stuck a lil bit in the ultra pro sleeve. Is this normal or a danger to my cards? Thanks

I use a toploader then double sleeve putting an inner clear sleeve then flipping a regular outer sleeve around the inner one. I like having the seam of the outer sleeve facing up.

If memory serves, i have a 1st edition base set charizard in a toploader BUT without a sleeve. Gotta dig it out but i remember there was already a scratch on the holo 😢

[TheYoungBonsaiGuy]

what two types of sleeves did you use, i use vault x and ultra pro but i cant get them to double sleeve. im asking because its humid where i live and im using desiccants in my bulk box and binders now because im having a slight bending problem.

What top loader binders do you recommend?

[radiomaster]

Do I have to put a penny sleeve upside down if I’m using a top loader binder?

[NitroDonkey]

Great video, thanks for making this only two minutes. Most people would have made this a 10 minute video just yapping

[masterchief]

Double sleeve is absolutely necessary inside toploader if it's gonna be stored inside a top loader binder ? Or sleeve with pull tab only then top loader then binder are perfectly ok ?
Because with double sleeve it's really big inside each pocket

[Phrix]

What penny sleeves, sleeves and toploaders do you recommend? I have toploaders which have a way to big gap for my pokemon cards and the heavily slide around..

[CazDad]

Thankyou for this video dude! always loved pokemon games been recently wanted to start collecting cards very informative I would’ve screwed up so much if I didn’t watch this and I have clinical ocd so it would’ve been bad if I didn’t watch this

[Crypto-Bootz]

Lol, maybe its fake. But why on earth did you use a 1st edition shadowless zard as your example card lmao

[claudst]

I pulled a Lugia card atm and so happy but I went to put it directly on a top loader with no sleeve first. It's a new toploader no spec of dusts inside. My card sat there for a good few minutes and half an hour later, I removed the card and put it back again on the deck packaging so that I'll store it again on a toploader when I already have the sleeve. Do you think my card is already damaged from what I did?


(New to card collecting here)

Should I put my cards upside down in the perfect sleeve when I don't double sleeve them for the toploader?

[rolandosepulveda]

Thank you, now I'll buy Card Savers XD

[BlackMysteries]

is it ok to just sleeve the cards without a toploader and putting them into a album

[DankFrankStank]

Are the sleeves sent with etbs okay to put into the top loaders? I sure hope so 😅
