    I remember years ago.. I would buy pages, with card sleeves that are meant to be put in binders... And I would cut out each individual sleeve, each page would have 9 sleeves, so I would get 9 individual card sleeves. So I would put my card into a penny sleeve, and then into the harder binder page sleeve... It was hard to afford to buy hard top loaders, especially after buying the packs of cards. Then I would store them in a larger box, usually that held like 120 cards or so... Then I grew up, and bought actual supplies lol.

    Thank you so much for this! I heard those are the essential sleeves for NBA cards today. I am a newbie at collecting NBA cards but almost a decade on MTG card game. I use Dragon Shields for outers and KMC Perfect HARD for inners. They are the top notch sleeves for gaming out there. There's lots of shuffling involved so card protection is my priority. I double sleeve every card I have but I heard that double sleeving NBA cards is a big no-no here. Now I have to switch sleeves but then I'll get to use those Toploaders I hoarded before I left MTG!

    If the penny sleeve is too narrow at the opening just use a finger from both hands and pull it apart till it widens the opening. Doesn’t take much force as it widens easily.

    I know I’m a bit late but hoping you see this and reply anyways. I’m new to the hobby and have been heavily focusing on contenders football. Got a few decent hits and don’t know how to handle them. Would you mag the autos or top load them? If I mag them, would you still recommend putting a sleeve over the the front to preserve the auto? Also, do your cards often come out of packs with scratches? Been noticing I’m pulling cards with surface scratches. Thanks for all the advice you give.

    • @PackmanCards
      @PackmanCards  3 роки тому +1
