Toploader question..

[joe johnson hawks]

I need help finding the right size toploader for a couple jersey cards. I got a couple gu'd cards from Artifacts and I bought some "Thick" top loaders to store them but they are way too big. The package says it holds cards up to 138 pt. I'm not sure how many different sizes there are but I'd like to know if anyone could tell me the right size to get? Thanks!

For most game used jersey cards you should get 2 mm thick top loaders. If you have any patches you may need 5 mm thick toploaders. Hope that helps!

just get the 75pt toploaders. they hold 95%+ of all jersey cards i own.i did that. holds smaller jersey cards with a bit of give. no problem though.55pt is probably what you want though. they are for snug fits

very nice info. Thank you for sharing guys =)

For me, I have many various size top loaders.

So I pick as my eyes roughly when I want to keep card then inserted .
(most of case, they are well fit. =) )

sorry i got a question here....

why using "PT" as measurement????? i mean it is Much easier to use mm or cm...

i always want to buy some best fit top loader or screwdown case for my cards..
just Can't figure out which one is fit.... 75pt ? 55pt? = 2mm? 3mm? GOD.... lol

Because the majority of collectors are American and Americans don't use the metric system for fear of infiltration by the evil British Empire. "Point" is equal to 1/1000 of an inch and it's used for the card stock thickness.

Droppin' some knowledge on you young bucks. You're welcome.

yes, thank you.
also if you look at the boxes of the toploaders they mostly use the pt formula. so i give you info on pt instead of mm,cm. its easier that way.

thanks guys... i finally know why USA use pt...

so which one is best fit for Exquisite cards?? 100pt ?

130 pt but you can get the super thick toploader of 180pt
