Review: Great Protection at a Great Price! - The Ultra Pro Semi-Rigid 1/2" Lip Sleeves have become my go-to for protecting my valuable trading cards. They offer the perfect balance of sturdiness and flexibility, ensuring my cards are safe whether they're being stored or shipped. The clear PVC material provides excellent visibility, so I can still admire my cards without taking them out of the sleeves. One thing to note is that these sleeves are a bit tighter than I'm used to, which can make it tricky to slide the cards in without worrying about potential damage. However, the added protection and the affordable price make this a sacrifice I'm willing to make. The 1/2" lip is a thoughtful touch that makes handling and inserting cards easier, despite the snug fit. Overall, these sleeves are a fantastic option for anyone looking to protect their collection, especially if you're submitting cards for grading. For the price, they provide great peace of mind and do exactly what they're supposed to do—keep my cards safe and secure. Highly recommend!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it fit Pokemon, Magic The Gathering and Yu Gi Oh cards?**
A: Yes. The inner dimensions ARE suitable for standard (2.5" x 3.5") cards, up to 7.75mm x 10.75mm.

These are not suitable for 180 cards (like the larger Poké-Decks, etc.)

For those, I recommend: Ultra Pro 3" X 4" Super Thick 180PT Toploader 10ct https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002SUP86G/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_GWOFCbHHDNKNB

**Q: Will these work for vintage cards size (1953 topps)**
A: A card of that size fits in the holder but barely.  I recommend the Card Saver I holders.  They’re larger and used by PSA for submissions.

**Q: Are these PVC free?**
A: Sorry. The answer is, no. 

These (and similar Ultra•Pro sleeves) are made of high impact rigid PVC.

**Q: Are ultra pro sleeves good for long term storage?  what about acid & pvc?**
A: Not really, they get extremely scratched and unfortunately they’ve increased in price due to demand. Unless you’re looking to invest in these for grading cards I wouldn’t bother.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Whoa what a deal!
*by T***Y on August 14, 2024*

Sold a bunch of Pokemon cards in lots of 20-40 cards and needed top loaders to ship them out in. Was surprised to see prices on them went up quite a bit since last time I bought them which was 6-7 months ago. Bought 200 of them for $17, but now they're $24+ for 200 and at least $13 for 100.. Luckily I searched long enough where these semi-rigids popped up in my search (thanks Amazon algorithm!) and saw after some awesome discounts were only $11 and change. Thought it was a price mistake, bought some similar ones (BCW I think) in the past for around $10 but that was for 50 of them. You really do get 200 semi-rigid holders for $11! They're the same exact ones that PSA require for grading, no degrade on quality. I do suggest before you put your cards in, to stick a couple fingers in them to stretch them out a bit (kind of like when, youre.. ah, nevermind), otherwise it'll be a tight fit, you'll probably have a hard time getting your cards in. Then you slide them in, but work it slow, don't just jam in there, it'll hurt your cards. Obviously these aren't as thick as top loaders so if you're shipping just one or a couple cards, I'd use those rigid cardboard like, photo mailers for extra protection. This combo works fine for the $1.20 USPS shipping option for trading cards. I've stuck 3 top loaded cards in there many times, so these thinner semi-rigids obviously wouldn't be a problem.
