Default Anyone use Mag Pro (Zion) card holders for vintage?

Like many vintage collectors here, I assume, my PC has a mix of graded (PSA and SGC) and raw cards.

I've been looking for a consistent and nice looking holder option for my raw cards and I've had quite a few other collectors suggest the Zion Mag Pro card holders.

I'm curious if anyone here has used these for T-cards, oversized early Topps cards, etc.

I'm going to pick up a few for a test run and will also share my own experience with them... from what I can see, they do have a nice look to them

Thanks
Jeff

I guess if you want uniformity in size to your graded it would make sense. I personally would not want the additional spot for a homemade label.

I almost exclusively use Ultra-pro one touch, so I do very much like the magnet close option and think they are very handy. Admittedly, if one was dropped from a height, it could pop open and assuredly if dropped on a hard surface. I have never done it myself, but it can be a drawback to some.

Looking forward to hearing how you like these, they do look interesting.

Those do seem pretty nice. How were you going to hold your T cards in place in a big holder like that? There are magnetics specifically for T cards, goudey, leaf, bowmans.

FYI, to close the loop on this thread, I just received my first 10 Mag Pro Zion card holders for my raw PC Cards and I really like it.

I haven’t figured what to put in the open top space, but I really like how clear the holder is and it blends the look of my raw cards nicely with my other graded cards.

Not super cheap - about $3-4 each but so far, I’m in.

Here is my sample card - Eck is looking good!

They missed a pretty big opportunity by not making them the same size as PSA & CGC slabs. Especially after going through all that design work with integrating space for a label and making them stackable.
