Best Graded Card Sleeve
 

So I've tried the graded card sleeves that a lot of people suggest (Superior Fit Innovations), and while they fit good, they scratch very easily. While not a huge deal, by simply flipping through your collection they become scratched up and take away from the experience of going through your cards.

Does anyone know of a brand that is less susceptible to scratching? I have one here (came with a card I bought off eBay) that is much harder to scratch, so I know they exist (different compositions of plastic).

Suggestions?

cardboard gold are nice

Cardboard gold as well for PSA slabs. For SGC, Vault X sleeves.

Do you find that they scratch less easily than the Superior Fit?

Thanks, I really appreciate the feedback.

I think it's a function of the clear plastic that makes them easy to scratch; like how piano black on a guitar scratches so easily.

I also notice that the superior fit ones rip apart easily, while others I have seen stretch before ripping. Very different make to the material.

Just got some Cardboard Good. They are MUCH better.

Thanks for the suggestion guys!

Now to find a decent graded card case...

I will need to try out the suggestions in this thread. I have also found the superior fit ones rip real easy. Mine are all the SGC size. If I don't perfectly get the sleeve around the edges, the sleeve will rip when trying to fit it in. They look great once on though.

I liked the Cardboard Gold PSA sleeves [B]before[/B] they started putting the PSA logo at the bottom. I personally don't like that PSA logo at the bottom of the sleeve so I no longer by them.

After that, I went with the Superior Fit Innovations thin "400" style PSA sleeves and they work great for me.

I switched from Superior Fit to Cardboard Gold. The Cardboard scratch way too easily.

Tried the Vault X, but they were cloudy. Cardboard Gold is the best I've found personally. I'm indifferent with respect to the logo, I'm assuming they are the "officially sponsored" PSA sleeve?

They still offer them without the logo. I just bought a case of them about a week and a half ago.

Thanks for the heads up.I'm fine with the Superior Fit sleeves, but this is good to know! :)!

Still looking for the right PSA sleeve. While the Cardboard Gold is less susceptible to scratches, the nature of the hard plastic (harder, than say, Ultra Pro) means that the sharp corners damage the foam inside most graded card cases.

The hunt continues. May look at Vault X again. Slim fit, not scratch magnets like Superior Fit, and don't have large sharp corners like the Cardboard Gold.

While not as clear as Superior Fit or Cardboard Gold, they are clearer than most. Will order a bunch of options and figure it out within the next couple days.
