    VERY MAD at ultra pro

    please help

    i went to my collection and looked at my orr card as it was on top.
    this card is one of my favorites, and it worth like $150
    it is sp authentic orr and phil esposito /50

    now i look and it looks like it is bent. so the uv magnetic holer bent the card over its time inside. i spent 5$ on this stupid case so that it could bend the card? it was definately not bent when i opened it, and it went directly in the magnetic case.

    now my newest problem is i cant even get the card out, i did originally but set it down for a minute back inside, and it will not budge

    any help is appreciated and ultra pro

    Was the magnetic holder the correct thickness for the card?

    Your were supposed to buy a 35pt. I've made this mistake when I first started so don't worry about it. Since you bought the 130pt, which is made for patch cards, the card had alot of free space. If it was in the wrong kind of temperature it could've bent by itself since it had the room to move. So by a 35 pt and it may become straight again over time.

    it needs to be flat, not bent.
