Forgive my ignorance! I'm brand new to all this! I see these videos with PSA graded cards in the fancy-assed acrylic cases. Where do those cases come from? Is that done as part of the grading? I've got cards going back to the early 70s; but have no idea what they're worth so now I'm trying to educate myself! :)
If you see anything like “PSA” or stuff like that with grading, that has to been sent to graders and they grade your card. If you do have cards like that I suggest looking at eBay and see what the prices for them and see if it’s worth grading 😁
You should put your good player hits in a mag even if its a lower end product like a tom brady auto patch from a lower product but its still expensive and he is a good player so it would go in a mag but still nice vid
Hey new collector here. I bought a bunch of contenders basketball blasters and im unsure of the size top loaders/one touch mags I should use for the Jersey relic from that product. Can I ask you which size toploaders/mags I should use? I know the cards you used were football so I'm unsure If it be the same for basketball.
Usually jersey/RPA’s are 100-130 point. The best thing you can do is get a measure card that can measure the thickness. If not i suggest using your regular base cards. A regular base card is 35 point and you can stack them up and see how your card matches up with them.
Why don't you use 35 pt one touch cases for regular sized cards only 75 pt? The 75 pt has wiggle space in them opposed to the 35 which has none you don't mind the wiggle room then?...just curious because I am in transition of swapping out my cards from a 75 pt to 35pt one touches....
@@CrazyCards12 so bottom line it doesn't bother you and you feel comfortable that the cards have some space to move around a bit in the 75pt one touches then
Relive the Hobby trading cards and more if you look at his ebay how to sell on ebay he mentions that screw downs damage your card La Collections has a video on screw downs Wax packs briefcase had a video on how to store cards I asked him in the comment section he was saying he would never use screw downs right now I have my 1974 Parker rookie, 1975 Brett rookie , 1979 Ozzie Smith rookie and 1980 Henderson rookie all in screw downs Superior fit sells them , my card store sells screw downs? I don't know what to think?
I wouldn’t worry 😁 my suggestion is to keep them in what they are in now, and if you do plan to get them graded just leave them in the current protection that you have now
@@CrazyCards12 I can grade my own cards and those gradings are somebody's opinion I've seen and heard that some collectors have said a card is a certain number and they seen better conditions with lower numbers I can grade my own card.. thank you for the suggestions the last day and a half.
@@CrazyCards12 hey I have one more question Should I get one touch’s or a regular top loader. I don’t really have any insane cards but I just want to keep them safe.
Hey so I am kind of new to football card collecting and I have a few nice autographs how do I tell what point they are so I can buy the right one touch?
Usually when you buy a box that has a mix of different size one touches, it comes with a measure card. That card will have all different sizes on there. Most typical autos will be a 35 point, but your thicker cards would be between 75-130 point depending on the product.
Thanks for the video. Do you have any pro mold one touch cases for Jersey cards. I have a couple but the perimeter of the case is too big for the card and I didn't know if it was just my cases
You’re welcome! I don’t have anything special for jersey cards for one touches. I mean what I usually do is if it matches a one touch with the same size than I just use that. Hopefully that helps 😂
I disagree with you on the one-touch cases... Buy the case that fits your card, they make every size. I also place a vintage penny sleeve over the top of my card in every one-touch.
Jason Brooks agreed! That’s why they make different sizes. If you’re going to spend all the money on Cards you might as well get the appropriate size mags
I have an impeccable auto card, and national treasures rookie patch auto. Not sure what is better? They measure 100 pt on the chart. I placed a penny sleeve over it, and it was snug. I placed it inside the 130 pt one touch, since I was scared of surface/auto rubbing. The card noticeably moved around in the case. Not sure what is better? Snug fit which can lead to rubbing, or loose fit that causes the card to move around. The good thing with one touch is that they have diamond cutout corners, which prevent the corners of the card from getting dinged.
One tip u need to put a sleeve on the top of the card before u mag it if it is a chome kind of card it helps your chome card surface not to get scratched
Got a few things. #1 My younger brother played H.S. ball with Sidney Jones out here in West Covina, CA. Awesome to see his auto well protected here. #2 This sounds like if Mike The Situation from Jersey Shore was informing us on how to protect our cards. Lol. #3 Awesome video overall, thanks for all of the info.
Normally regular cards fit perfectly in a 35pt. I know when you buy mags that come in like a package it usually comes with a card ruler. It can measure the thickness up to I believe 350pt.
Thanks for all the helpful info. Are you ever afraid of too much protection? Penny sleeve into a top loader followed by a team bag to seal it? I was just curious because it seems safe, but I'm afraid it may build condensation without any airflow to the card. I have my cards protected like this now should it be a problem?
Hey I know this is random, but I just ordered a bunch of the 35pt ultra pro one touches, and I held them up to a bright light and I notice they all have these streaks in a curved stripe pattern on the outside of them. I wonder if anyone else has noticed these streaks on their brand new ultra pro one touches, like is it a manufacturing defect, or did I just get a bad batch? It would be nice if someone else could check to see if theirs has it also.
Just recently started collecting rookie football cards I have some coming from the 1950s and 1980s do you recommend storing them in top loaders or one touch cases? Eventually I’ll send these cards away to be graded and Encased I just want to keep them in as good condition as possible until then :)
I think if the value of the cards is greater than $50 than i suggest the one touches 😁 I have some mahomes rookie cards and I keep them all in one touches
Crazy Cards 12 thank you :) I’m looking at some mahomes rookie cards too as a bit of an investment piece being from the uk though it’s hard to sellers in the uk most of my purchase have to come from the US with high shipping costs haha I’ve so far only been able to find one shop in the entire UK that sells packs and boxes of cards of football etc
Top loaders are really hard plastics me and my friend we use to do shows back in the 1990's and if walked over to the supply table in the box it was labeled hard plastics the hard plastic is the correct term? one touches came around later ? what makes your video more proper? I have questions what do you think about screw downs? I've heard from about 3 people that they say that screw downs damage your cards is there any evidence or are collectors trying to give a new protector called the one touch a chance? then in the Chat May 8th a couple were saying that screw downs are fine and protect your card if it did damage nobody would sell them what do you think about screw downs?
Well I don’t know about the 1990’s but the plastics are what are known as “ top loaders” and the glass is known as “ one touches”. I have a few screwed down one touches however I don’t see them around anymore tbh. The magnetic ones are easier and less of a chance of breaking the glass. I’ve never heard of screw downs damaging cards but the trend today is definitely the magnetic ones over the screw downs. Whatever you decide to use is perfectly fine 😁 I hope I answered your questions.
@@CrazyCards12 you may know them as top loaders but I would never lie to you the original term is what you go by and it's hard plastics? when Chase created that credit card called the sapphire preffered back in 2006 the reserve was not around the Freedom unlimited was not around today you can only get the basic sapphire by downgrading so when referring to the Sapphire preferred can we call it the regular sapphire of course not because somebody named it the sapphire preffered same with hard plastics somebody named it Hard Plastics and that's what we call it?
What kind of sleeves and top loafers should I use for cards with jerseys (UD 18/19 NHL Artifacts Collections)? Sleeves - 130pt and toploaders - 180pt ? Help me please
Okay so if you’re doing this in Chronological order 1st layer penny sleeves 2nd layer top loaders 3rd layer team bags OR 1st layer penny sleeves 2nd layer ultra pro touch 3rd layer ulra Pro team bag
Good video I have heard of people putting a penny sleeve inside the one touch not sure if it's around the card or just on top of it like under the lid, to protect the surface, have you heard of this
There’s absolutely nothing wrong with having a card in a toploader! However if it is a really expensive card, there’s better protection with a one touch and if you ever have to remove the card from a one touch you won’t want to worry about pulling the card out of there 😁
