The BVG internal sleeve

Part of the problem is they don't use a super thin high sheen sleeve like normal penny sleeves I use with top loaders. They have to have a border / shelf for it inside for the cards before they go into the hard plastic slabs, so the sleeve they use is slightly thicker, somewhat reminiscent to me of a 1980's album page thickness. Because of this imperfections in the material are magnified, I think. Something you can't really see when the sleeve is new gets pressed against an area of a card that is dark and suddenly it makes it look like the card has print snow when it really doesn't.

Internal or "infernal?"
