Default Looking for Graded Card Bags For Postcard Size Slabs

Posted By: Steve



My two cents, I use clear 3-ring notebook sheets. I think you can get two tallboys from one. I bought the ultra clear not the frosted ones.

1. Cut a wee bit wider than the slab -about 3/4". Sandwich the cut end up tight between two paint sticks. It should over hang the paint sticks slightly, about an RCH. Press the sticks onto the counter (granite here), then take a wand lighter and quickly "weld" the open side. They bond together easily.

2. Cut the open bottom end so one side as long as the slab and the other is about 1 1/2" longer, to flap it over to the back and Scotch tape it. Put a little fold over in the end of the tape so it can be easily peeled off.

Haven't done it in a while, but the ones I have that are a couple of years old are holding up fine. Oh, don't burn the kitchen table or you're toast.

With the T3 slabs, I think I used a full sheet for the PSA ones sometime ago. The SGC slabs were simply too wide if I recall.
