Who do you guys use for graded card sleeves??
 
I have been using Superior Fit sleeves for quite a while. They fit graded cards like a glove and make them look really nice. That being said, I didn't realize they are based out of Canada. Is there a viable replacement that I can get that is based out of America that is just as good? Pennysleever?? Cardboard Gold?? I want them for PSA and SGC graded cards, but mainly SGC. Who do you guys use?

I've always used Superior Fit. The packages take a bit longer to come now because they have had to actually start shipping them from Canada because of the tariff BS, but to me it's worth it. They make the best stuff.

Cardshellz doesn't sell what I am looking for. I am looking for a plastic, mylar type sleeve to put the graded slab in. Think Superior Fit, but in America.

That’s what Cardshellz sells. Much less finicky than perfect fit. Graded card fit in them snuggly without the struggle and side tearing .Glovefit is the name they sell under- made by Cardshellz….

1956 and back larger style. (these are discontinued according to the site so when they are gone I assume that's forever) :

I second this, I use their premium sleeves for my PSA slabs

There are of course lots of other choices if you don't have to have the "perfect fit" precision. Cardboard Gold, and possibly even another supplier makes the ones with the PSA logo at the bottom. And UltraPro makes and has always made a wide variety of sleeves and bags for everything under the sun, albeit with much less than a "perfect" fit.

Any suggestion for graded postcard sleeves? PSA and SGC?

Those are the ones I bought, too.
I think you can get 100 delivered for about $10 on eBay?

Jeff, I ran into these at the National. The size of the sleeves are on the front so you can measure yours to see if they are a direct fit. Their contact info is on the card. Hope it fits.

For sgc

bobbyw8469 08-05-2025 03:55 PM

I went to their website and the old SGC slab sleeves are cheap but they are discontinued. They say they only work for the older slabs and the newer ones might be slightly thicker.

Lucas..I checked those out. I think they are referring to the age of the slab and not the age of the card. They are saying that the newer SGC slabs are slightly thicker and might tear those. Think older label SGC slabs, where the label looked different.

Ah got it Bobby, my mistake you're correct.

bobbyw8469 08-08-2025 03:54 PM

THanks guys! I bought the CardShellz to go with the Superior Fits I ordered. I will compare them to see which one is better.

bobbyw8469 08-12-2025 12:19 PM

The Card Shellz came in before the Superior Fit even though I ordered them later. Thanks guys. They work just fine!!!

Cardboard Gold
 
Cardboard Gold makes some pretty good graded card sleeves. I am not sure about all of the sizes. I use mine for larger, regular cards...SGC slabs etc...
