I did for a couple weeks after that. That was then. If you have any problems please see a moderator.

Also if you can prove that I have not been selling toploaders longer with the best pricing please let me know and I will retrack my statement.

Andrew,
Who really gives a rats As@. You seem to make a big deal out of everything.Go list it on the BST side for your buck or two a package and be done with it. That should be the end of it.

Default couple quick points

First of all this probably should be on the BST side so we can just let this be a small, informal, easy-going, warning.....no big deal.

Now, Adam M......you seem to be causing a bit of trouble lately. You are the one that brought that old thread back up (which just got locked by another mod but I approve too) and then started slamming the original poster. Please try to play nicer with folks. Your shi* to equity ratio isn't too good. And that is all I got to say about that!!

If people say they are leaving but don't...hey, that is great. Like Bill said, the more the merrier. If they leave...well, that's the way it goes. This community will survive without any one or two people, me included.....thanks for ya'lls time...

Let's put it this way...if the majority of your posts on the main board are complaining about OT posts and you generally only contribute in OT posts then there's something not right. You also probably shouldn't be bringing up OT posts that have been buried for 5 weeks only to start an argument.

I posted this to find out if anyone wanted any of these before commiting to a large buy. Some people have asked before about these so i though it might be good to find out if anyone was still looking for them. I didn't ask for anyone to come on here and attack me for no provoked reason. If you don't need them then I don't need to know. Only if anyone is interested.

I would be interested as I don't need my cards graded and use the sleeves when I have them framed. 100 to start sounds about right, put me in for them as soon as you get started.

Forgive my rookie ignorance, but I'm not familiar with the sleeve jargon. Can you tell me what the difference is between these kinds of sleeves?

I'll assume that a top loader is what's pictured. You open up the top and slide it in right? So everytime you take the card out you risk damaging the corners, not to mention how careful you have to be not to pinch the card when removing.

All I have is raw cards, so I went to a card store and looked at ways to preserve my cards. I think the screw downs were the ones that made the most sense to me. Those plexiglass thingy's with the screws, right?

The stores I went to didn't have the screw downs that would fit the tobacco cards, they were all too big. I have no idea what a penny sleeve is, but I might want to get some screw downs, depending on the price.

Or maybe someone would be good enough to educate me on what's best, or how to make that determination based on my needs.

Actually it has been done sorry your not the first... here's a bonus it's from a source we all can trust!

http://www.t206museum.com/page/tensizesleeves.html

Also for the record I didn't think Adam was too rough...I agree seemed like a fishing post for a business transaction which really should be in the BST area.

Cheers,

John

P.S. Murray's in London also makes small penny type T-card sleeves.

Even a well known fact, can be considered an attack by those of the tender thin skin. ..... Be gentle.

I have dealt with this guy for years and he is the best suppy dealer I have dealt with. Get him to send his wholesale price list and you can save even more. Sorry Pupster but this is my way of doing a service for the whole community. These guys are great to deal with. Tom is the owner and he is a real good guy to deal with.

Yeah I know I have dealt with Tom many times. Still beat his pricing for product and shipping. PLus didn't you just order a bunch of them from me recently I am 100% sure you did. That doesn't realy make sense to be bashing for no reason. I never gave you or anyone else here a reason for this. Oh well you all can be how you are.

Geez, here is a reasonable question from a newbie, completely ignored.

What you see pictured is NOT a toploader that often ding corners when you insert a card. It's a very thin plastic sheath that you put the card in first. If you bashed your card against it you probably wouldn't leave a mark. After the card is in the plastic sleeve, it can then be slid into a toploader safely - the corner of the plastic sleeve goes right in and the rest follows easily. You then get the added protection of an increase of surface tension within the plastic sleeve that keeps the card from moving around the toploader too much. It's also easier to remove, just grab the sleeve sticking out slightly.

They are often called penny sleeves since you can get a pack of 100 for $1. Well worth the price, all my toploaders have a penny sleeve within.

Default Hello egbeachley

With all due respect, you did a beautiful step by step description of a penny saver.

BUT ... In all fairness, if you were to look at post # 20 ... Click on the T206 hyper link ... you will see a pretty good break down on penny savers, that also includes a description of same.

Sometimes, you have to read the whole thread.
Better yet, let's combine both post.

Yes he did and this rookie found it more understandable than the description on the T206 page. Remember I'm a rookie....what hand does the glove go on?

Thanks egbeachley.

Wow, so are the toploaders from Andrew for stuffing the fish into?

I blinked once when reading this thread and boy did it ever take a turn down the wrong street...now I'm stuck in a land where we talk of coins, fish, 401ks, and plastic sleeves that may or may not be a good deal depending on their source and usage?

Happy 54th birthday to all and to all a good night!

Thanks egbeachley.

I agree with you.
The point of the Wonka post was more to prove that The Puppy was not the first to push penny sleeves, and he selected the T206 site (tongue in cheek) to prove that.
Although it described the penny savers, I agree with you, egbeachley's description was more newbie friendly.
That's why I recommended the combination of both post.

Again,
Welcome aboard!

Now if T206museum would only sell penny sleeves with black overprint bars stamped on each sleeve, then we'd be onto something special...

I should have held back on the crappie. I usually stay away from the dart throwing and the OT but I will admit I am very addicted to my children, fishing and cardboard so every now and then I may let one fly.

cfc1909 means children~fishing~cards from 1909 and in that order...
