    That's a great idea!! :) I hate those sticky residue left when i take the tape off.:(

    This is an incorrect statement....cards can still slip out. I just received a card last week that slipped 1/4 of the way out from the "right" top loader.

    People that complain about a taped top loader need to quit crying over it being too hard to remove - cut the tape. If the holder is taped right, the card shouldn't get any sticky material on it. The top loader should be squeezed together with the tape & the card will never touch the tape even if it slides a little. I use Scotch Magic Tape & that doesn't seem to leave any residue on the top loaders. You can fold down one edge to make a tab so that the other person only has to pull up on the tab to remove the tape.

    I also dislike getting taped top loaders. i ship all my cards in team bags. When i get auctions from ebay i spend 10 minutes taking the tape off. here tape there tape everywhere tape. sure one piece across the top isnt too bad but i think team bags are the way to go.

    You should try using labels. You can buy them cheap and you can get ones that don't leave residue. Worked great for me.
