Pretty sure their has been a thread about this but I can't find it.

I have some higher end future watch autos and YG's in my collection that I keep in one touch holders, now I am very picky about condition and all my cards would probably grade at least a 9.5. My question is does keeping them in a magnetic do harm because most have a little wiggle room inside. Would it be better to keep in a sleeve and top loader then team bag? The reason I don't have them in top loaders is because a corner can get ruined trying to put it in the sleeve. Would it be a good idea to get those large screw down cases and have them in their?

Any tips would be sweet.
 
i think the 1 touch is the way to go...they have the corners etched out so no damage. even with a TINY bit of give some of them have, you'd have to shake them ridiculously hard to possibly do some damage?

I've also heard of story's of the card sticking to the top of the magnetic and the surface getting ruined, so that also scares me lol.

I think that's an even bigger issue with the screw downs. I don't have any huge dollar cards, but everything rare/valuable is in a magnetic one touch.
 
My cards from 8 years ago have NEVER stuck to the top of a 1 touch. Yes, there is wiggle room in a 1 touch, but its to protect the corners. You would need to shake them pretty good to cause even a little damage.
A penny sleeve and toploader......First you risk the corners by putting it in the sleeve, then in the toploader. Then all 3 are pressed on each other. Im not saying this causes damage, but it may. Ive had tons of cards stuck to penny sleeves.
Don't use screw downs, you may screw too much and hurt the card

Looks like ill just be keeping mine in Magentics! Also I heard Magentics have like the Uv glass thing so the sun or light doesn't affect the cards.
 
The only time I have seen a card stick to the one touches is when juice was spilled all over the card and case. Thankfully it was not a high price card.
