My quandary? Why is the Ultra Pro brand so prevalent in local hobby stores (baseball card stores, comic book stores) and retail boxes like Walmart and Target, whereas BCW is only available online through their website or perhaps through eBay?
Anyone else have similar experiences?

Ultra Pro top loaders are the industry standard, maybe it rolls over to the binders?
