    We consistently use Dragon Shield across all TCGs and use a wide variety of colors, but almost always matte as the have the superior shuffle feel. Thanks for the video. ❤️

    I use the clear dragonshields for anything that is for display purposes, such as cards in binders or in a display on the wall, or just expensive cards that are in a box. I use dual matte colored sleeves for decks, trying to match the color to the vibe of the deck. Even if I take apart a deck, I will eventually build another deck that uses those sleeves. At this point, I have more than enough deck sleeves, but I do keep buying the clear ones every once in a while. They cost about 12$ US for a box of 100ct, but occasionally I will see them for 9$. Since I use most of those for set collections, I just include it in the cost of the set, same as the binder they are stored in.

    One of my next projects is to go through my board games and figure out what cards need sleeving. Not sure when I'll get to this as I'm undertaking a far more extensive project now, but it is on the list.
    I buy in bulk -- recently 10k BCW sleeves for outer sleeves for my non-play display Magic sets. As I no longer play much, I have to decide the long-term fate of my play sets. The BCW sleeves will not work for these and I very likely will got the Dragon Shield route. Again, it's not the next project, so not sure when I'll get to it.
    Thanks for the review.

      hey penguinlust! what helps me with my boardgames is eithe bgg->sleeves or a site called sleeveyourgames. there you can check which sleeves you need.
      sounds like you have a couple of ambitious projects, buddy! 😜😁👊🏻

      what kind of inners do you use, handheldgamer? i honestly have around 5000 dragonshield sleeve and they all are fine to double sleeve my cards 🤔. try kmc inners and dragon shield outers, that always works for me.

    Great video, I really enjoy watching your collection progress and the care you take with your cards. Great tips as well.
    I only collect foil legendary creatures, I know kind of lame, but I like them. I use ultra pro vivid zip binders and dragon shield clear classic sleeves. I don't double sleeve because visually, in the binder, it takes away from the foiling too much I find. How do you preserve/ collect foils, and do you think it's a mistake not double sleeving?

    • @NerdAndProudOfIt
      @NerdAndProudOfIt  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      hey andrew! thanks so much for the kind comment! i really appreciate it and i am glad you enjoy the vids! 😁👊🏻
      yeah, some call me lame because i collect antiquities artist proofs or old cards in general. let them talk and do what YOU enjoy! if you like foil legendary creature and that makes you happy, that’s awesome!
      i think double sleeving is important for the longterm protection of the cards. especially old cards, as they are sealed more or less air tight that way and last longer. when it comes to foils, i tend to double sleeve as well, to counter curling to some degree. it helps a bit. i store my foils in ultimate guard boulder deck boxes, the hard plastic ones, and i fill up the box to the brim, so the cards are pressed flat. there still is some curling going on, unfortunately, but that way i minimize it.
      hope that helps! 🙏🏻❤️

    Hmmm are dragon shield sleeves a good fit for Marvel Masterpieces cards? or it wouldn't fit them (either sleeve/double sleeving)

    • @NerdAndProudOfIt
      @NerdAndProudOfIt  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      hey man! i do not have any marvel masterpiece cards, so i do not have the ability to check that. if they do have the same size as a regular tcg card like magic the gathering or pokemon cards, then i assume they fit just fine 😁👊🏻

      @IQerat 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @@NerdAndProudOfIt cheers for the reply. Very new to this and I’ve read that they are standard sized.
      I did notice they don’t have rounded corners so maaaybe perfect fit sleeves may be an issue.
      I ordered the dragon shield perfect fit sealable sleeves to test first then see what to do from there.

    • @NerdAndProudOfIt
      @NerdAndProudOfIt  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      @@IQeratof course! and normally perfect fits are not a big issue, even with non rounded corners. be aware that the dragonshield inners can be a very tight fit, though. i suggest you invest another 3 bucks in kmc inners. those might give you just a little more room to comfortably sleeve the cards 👊🏻
