Guide: What size toploaders/screwdowns do I need?

[TheTGB]

I wanted this mainly for myself so I can remember how it works, but I thought I would post it here for everyone to use.

Do you have that really thick patch card?
Do you have tons of awesome Upper Deck Black cards but can't fit them in your toploaders or screwdowns?

Well this will tell you exactly what size to buy for that card. All you need is a ruler and know how to read in millimeters (mm).

1.5mm - 59pt
2mm - 79pt
2.75mm - 108pt
3.5mm - 138pt
5mm - 197pt
7mm - 240pt

In other words, 1mm is about equal to 40pt.

Now I need to go measure my Upper Deck Black and other thick patch cards to find the perfect size toploader for them!

Most major card sites carry all those sizes.

I scored in my search for Bowman blasters and they actually had a five pack of the really thick magnetics for 5 bucks. Picked those up in a heart beat.
