Raw Card Collectors - Have You Tried CardPreservers - My Review

I’ve been anxiously waiting for these to be available since UltraPro announced them last fall. I ordered a couple hundred when they became available last month and am really happy with them.

For those that don’t know, the concept is a semi-rigid type back and a heavy-gauge penny sleeve type front. The size is just big enough to hold standard trading cards (and you can even fit 1950s larger vintage just barely).

This is the first raw card storage that really left my cards feeling like…cards. You can shuffle through them just like a stack of raw cards and really enjoy your collection.

If you’re wondering how it’s better than top loaders or cardsavers I would say less bulk and true card-size feel in hand. But the best improvement is that with the penny sleeve-type front, I don’t think there will be any micro-scratching on the fronts that both top loaders and cardsavers get when you stack them and shuffle through them repeatedly. You can go through your collection over and over and still retain a crystal clear view.

There is a flap that folds over back and is secured by an adhesive strip made for repeated usage. The adhesive is on the back of the holder and not on the flap, so your card wont touch any adhesive when you insert it.

Anyway, I’d encourage anyone who has raw cards that they wish they’d enjoy more often to try these. Makes you really want to grab a stack of your cards and thumb through them.

Cost is around $5 for a pack of 25.

Looks promising. They already have a similar product for comic books that I use to store my silver age Marvel books.

Sure thing! They make me want to flip through a lot of my stuff that I don't keep out in my main display more often. Been fun.

Thanks! Very low grade on the bigger ones so I don't worry about messing them up, lol.
