Something I suggest for those who like to use binders, use a zippered binder such as the ultimate guard zipfolio, or the "case it" series of binders. Will help to keep dust out, which is what most binders seem to be a magnet for. I actually don't suggest the use of a toploader binder for two reasons: dust being the biggest issue. And the second reason is they don't last very long when loaded. The weight of the pages once loaded becomes so heavy that the actual pages will start to rip, even if you don't move the binder frequently (literally left my binder on the shelf for a year, several pages ripped). Thanks for your opinion on best ways to store cards Jordan. Those of us in the PSA game like to see what others use.
I have a different way. It really works, but you have to buy three different types of sleeves, toploaders, and team bags. Step 1) Take an Ultra Pro: Pro Fit sleeve and put your card into it, leaving the bottom unprotected. Step 2) Take an Ultra Pro: Deck Protector sleeve and put it over the Ultra Pro: Pro Fit sleeve from the bottom, making the entire card covered. Step 3) Take an Ultra Pro: Deck Protecter Cover sleeve and put it over the Ultra Pro: Deck Protector sleeve from the top, so that the top of the card is covered twice. Step 4) Take a Premium Top Loader and put your covered card into it, regularly. Step 5) Take a Resealable Team Bag and insert your fully covered card into the Team Bag. Step 6) Like this comment. (totally helps to protect your card)
Lol, I'm 22 but only started collecting again like a week ago. Back when I was a kid I only knew there were special Pokemon binders (neighbor had one) but never saw an individual sleeve back then. Now I'm double sleeving my cards.
I really hope this video gets big and reaches a large audience. It'll be great for new collectors to keep their cards pristine, as well as positive news for anyone out there who trades with those collectors. :)
youre suggesting the hard sleeves over penny sleeves, when these actually give more damage moving it out of the sleeve than penny sleeves. These actually keep space between the card and the edges. I have penny sleeves, kmc perfect fits, and the mewtwo sleeves you are talking about. Least damage with penny sleeves, maybe into a toploader.
awesome video man!! I protect my cards by using Ultra Pro fit sleeves and ice leave the cards carefully upside down and then I put the card sleeved with a perfect fit sleeve in to a Ultra Pro sleeve the normal way so that way it is double sleeved and prevents any dust or debris from getting to the actual card and then I put it in an Ultra Pro binder similar to yours so that way the card is protected three times over lol.
About that ultra pro pro binder you showed in the video, have you tried monster's binder that looks kind of the same? If so, which one do you prefer and why?
Sir Jordan what sleeves do you use for your cards in your ultra pro binder?i have troubling deciding which cards sleeves will i use for my cards when i put them in a binder cause other card sleeves are too bulky.
You don't have to put a sleeve upside down on a card if you use a sidelining binder since dust can't collect at the top. Just a little easier to put them in right side up, is all.
We put ours in Pro-Fit Sleeves right side up then we put them in Deck Protectors upside down so NO dust can get in them AT ALL so they are protected all the way around, then they go in their binder pages like that, but we dont send anything to PSA, so yeah..... - Case
Started collecting not too long ago and I got a full art mega charizard ex from my first 5 boosters...as well as a dragoniteEX, slowbroEX and a noivern gx. Been looking up ways to keep my cards as mint as possible...I may start doing the sleeve toploader thing and then keeping them in boxes.
This video is great! Good to see an expert opinion... and yes, you are an expert. I remember how good the condition of the cards I won was! They are still mint!
okay so when I use it I use the Ultra Pro magnet cases and then I have a plastic shrink machine and Shrink plastic all around them so absolutely no dust gets in the OR scratches get on them and they are in perfect condition forever that's the best way I found besides sending it into PSA
question whats the best way to store and keep your cards safe and still be able to play with them at the same time I have all mine in a binder but I feel taking them out and putting them in sleeves each time I want to play kinda throws off the condition idk what do you think I have tons of sleeves should I jst migrate my cards over to them and forget about the binder ?
I usually just put my cards in the ultra pro 9 pocket dividers. I've noticed that when I use sleeves from Elite Trainer boxes and then place them in my Ultra pro binder, not only are they hard to get in the pockets but they always warp my cards. Now I just stick to the ultra pro 9 pocket binder. Do you have a suggestion that is better than just doing this?
I'm not sure on the sizes compared to the elite trainer ones, but I use Ultra Pro sleeves in my pro binder and its fits perfectly. Basically just like he has at 4:42, that's what I'd say you want to do for the best protection. In my experience putting them in a binder without a sleeves can cause the edges to whiten, especially on the back as they do move slightly when your going through the binder. Hope that helps :)
Z3L Thanks. I'll look into that then. I thought about getting the standard size ultra pro pro fit sleeves since they are a tighter a fitting sleeve for Pokemon cards.
+BlueGamer11 Could be because it is an older card. The older cards just start to warp over time and there isn't much that could be done unless you get it in something as sturdy as what PSA uses.
No the cards I got aren't old. They're the nicer ones. I'm talking XY series new. XY Primal clash roaring skies new. They aren't bent or curved when I first pull them but for some reason once in sleeves and to powders they bend or curve
I know it confuses me too! One card I'm extremely proud of polling is the full art mega shiny rayquaza ex is starting to bend a bit. I use those ultra pro sleeves that got the blue background and aren't see through but I may have those trainer box sleeves. Should I try that to see if anything happens?
Or.... A MUCH better way to do it is to send your card to PSA! Once it's in that case it will be in that condition forever! And it's ONLY about $50 a card! Why do it free when you can spend way too much money to make it work only slightly better?
Anybody selling a mega (X) black charizard in English also regular not the gold font ? Also Willing to trade a mega charizard (Y) in gem mint condition
Dude you didn't show it cause it was dusty ?! Bad Idea man you're missing out on a lot of viewers!! Next time just clean the damn binder why so lazy ?? Otherwise it's a great video . You have potential that's for sure
+JordanJapanNintendoFan✪ yep i have jap. cards psa 10 but psa 8 english cards lol i am subbing to ur other channel too !!! please sub to me love you vids keep on collecting but my way of getting psa 10 is using card saver 1's the grading cases
Weak. Printed-on sleeves are fragile. Turning around the cards within a sleeve does nothing. Were you actually for real???? You'd need inner sleeves, called "perfect fits".
It would be great if Pokemon actually gave us gem mint cards out of packs.
Daniel Sierra they're mint until you use them.
Not really half the time out of the pack they have silvering etc.

Can I have ur top loader binder ? I’m poor .

you can use 2 penny sleeves to keep dust, sleeve 1 then sleeve the opposite of the card u just sleeved
About that ultra pro pro binder you showed in the video, have you tried monster's binder that looks kind of the same? If so, which one do you prefer and why?
thanks for the tips jordan only problem is that i cant find any toploaders were i live good luck with the new channel

I know right. I have clefairy holo old-school I pulled when I bought 7 packs last year on March and it still is mint :)
Do all card binders fit the card in with a regular sleeve on as well
You could double sleeve with deck protectors, and then penny sleeves.
I posted vid on channel
What is the name of the green sleeves you have in the binder?
So putting the cards in penny sleeves then in a card binder isn’t the best way you think? Because that’s how I’m storing my cards right now.
okay so when I use it I use the Ultra Pro magnet cases and then I have a plastic shrink machine and Shrink plastic all around them so absolutely no dust gets in the OR scratches get on them and they are in perfect condition forever that's the best way I found besides sending it into PSA
do you recommend top loader binders? or are they unnecessary as there may be other alternatives to store top loaders
question whats the best way to store and keep your cards safe and still be able to play with them at the same time I have all mine in a binder but I feel taking them out and putting them in sleeves each time I want to play kinda throws off the condition idk what do you think I have tons of sleeves should I jst migrate my cards over to them and forget about the binder ?
I'd say double sleeve - perfect fit clear sleeves then colored sleeves over that
what do you think about double-sleeving cards?
What about the dust covers for the top loaders
Still got the top loader binder? They stop selling them :(

Now I just stick to the ultra pro 9 pocket binder. Do you have a suggestion that is better than just doing this?
Ultra Pro Deck Protectors Standard Size + Ultra Pro Pocket Binder. That's all you need really. They are made for each other, so they fit great.
I'm not sure on the sizes compared to the elite trainer ones, but I use Ultra Pro sleeves in my pro binder and its fits perfectly. Basically just like he has at 4:42, that's what I'd say you want to do for the best protection.
In my experience putting them in a binder without a sleeves can cause the edges to whiten, especially on the back as they do move slightly when your going through the binder. Hope that helps :)
Z3L Thanks. I'll look into that then. I thought about getting the standard size ultra pro pro fit sleeves since they are a tighter a fitting sleeve for Pokemon cards.
I actually use a normal sleeve inside a toploader and keep it in this glass book sleeve thing
KMC perfect fit from the top
Then use a regular sleeve
Just search TH-cam for how to double sleeve
is double sleeving and then putting it into the binder good?
Well the thing is is my sleeves are kind of curved so when I put my cards in them I feel like they're getting bent
hey I got penny sleeves and ultra pro premium toploaders could I get a 10 still
I like to take a elite trainer box sleeve and put a penny sleeve ontop
Double sleeved dragon shield that's top loaded and sent to PSA
I ordered completely different sleeves but I got penny sleeves
What set is that Rayquaza from?
XY Roaring Skies
I put my cards in expert sleeves and in top loaders but they still end up bent or curved. Why?
+BlueGamer11 Could be because it is an older card. The older cards just start to warp over time and there isn't much that could be done unless you get it in something as sturdy as what PSA uses.

That sounds unusual I have never had that issue with newer cards unless I forgot to sleeve them
I know it confuses me too! One card I'm extremely proud of polling is the full art mega shiny rayquaza ex is starting to bend a bit. I use those ultra pro sleeves that got the blue background and aren't see through but I may have those trainer box sleeves. Should I try that to see if anything happens?
+BlueGamer11 Here are two explanations. Either you keep your sleeved cards in a elite trainer box, or you are not putting the PSA sturdy protectors.
The sad thing about Pokemon cards is that not everything is in GEM MINT condition. :(
Are Dragon Shield sleeves good?
+TheRebel Doctor™ Any colored sleeves usually will be good! (:
+JordanJapanNintendoFan✪ tnx good.
+JordanJapanNintendoFan✪ Do you make trade/sale binder videos?
+TheRebel Doctor™ I do but haven't in a while. I'll have one up soon (:
+JordanJapanNintendoFan✪ Thank you.
Now i know where i can put my mega rayquaza ex full art, and all my other ex rares in. Thanks :D
i want that binder at the thumbnail
Fantastic basic video thank you.
how do you do psa
Or....
A MUCH better way to do it is to send your card to PSA! Once it's in that case it will be in that condition forever!
And it's ONLY about $50 a card! Why do it free when you can spend way too much money to make it work only slightly better?
Lolz, not $50. You can do it for $6. If you want it back in a week it would cost less than $50, normally. I certainly hope you were being sarcastic.
PSA also helps resale. You can make tons of money off of them being a grade 10.
Lol.
Wait, Woah woah woah! Skul, commenting on Jordan? Duuhuuhude!
good advice im going to spend all my money to send my card to PSA. Just got my card back and got a 4 :D great waste of money! PSA SUCKS
Sadly you can't put your cards upside down in regionals and that stuff
+FinalRage yeah this video is more for collectors
+FinalRage yeah this video is more for collectors
+JordanJapanNintendoFan✪ where I can buy a toploader album
Dude I am a 10 year old I use sleeves toploders and team bags I love Pokemon cards!
Jordan Nice video=Awesome!
speaking of PSA i want to send some card in but it to expensive
love the video!
I put mine in a binder in trader card slips
Penny sleeves are actually made for top loaders...
That doesn't work for me?? It's to danm big
Anybody selling a mega (X) black charizard in English also regular not the gold font ?
Also Willing to trade a mega charizard (Y) in gem mint condition
Can I just put the card into a penny sleeve before putting it into a binder? Or do I need to use a deck sleeve?
i thought i was the only obe who puts the cards in upside down
i don't use toploaders ijust sleeve and in a binder and don't really care too muchunless its an ultra rare
love you vids
Dragon shields blows everyone out of the water
I don't use this system. And I've gotten plenty of Gem Mint 10s from PSA.
+LucarioFan 2005 You mean you don't sleeve your cards? lol that is basically the system
I mean I don't use your specific system. Lol. I have my own system.
Thought I herd the corn man
ive got penny sleeves
Where are toploaders?
Wal-Mart
You can also put the top loader in a Ultra Pro Team Bag if you want to keep the sleeve the right side up. amzn.to/1Q05KkO
I'm only 12, and I can't stand it if my "ultra rares" are not in good condition.....
same :P
this is great because i JUST pulled a riachu BREAK!!!!!
+Coldkids04 Gaming nice congrats! (:
+The Blue Swalot Little tip, NEVER put cards in your pocket. Always put them in a safe place.
