snapdown size???

[bbguy24]

Hi guys, I'm wondering if any of you know what size of a magnetic snapdown case is needed for the 09 spgu (fives) 5 player patch. Thanks, mike.

I have used 120pt or 130pt for the patches in my collection/traders...I don't think I have seen bigger that that for magnet holders(but that really doesn't mean anything)

I say whatever is the biggest, maybe 120 or 150 if they make them.

promold makes a 180 magnetic. not sure the size of the card though..

UltraPro also has just released the 180 pt magnetic.
They fit all signature stick cards and worked for one of my SPGU 6 player patch, so I think it will work for the card you have.

Thanks guys, i'll give the 180 pt a try. Cheers, mike.

Is there anything bigger then a 180 pt? I tried the 180pt and it's not even close to fitting the fives patch.

for promold, it looks like the biggest "holder" they make is a snapdown box..
180 pt is the biggest magnetic holder..

These snap-down cases tend to have rounded corners inside that will damage cards if you ship them in it (unless you put it in a sleeve before you use the case). I really don't like using them, I had a nice Cup patch card damaged on two corners because the seller shipped using a snap-case and the card moved around inside freely.

no there is nothing bigger at this time then 180pt, i do know they don't fit dual shields from 08 the cup either, here's hoping they make something bigger

If you use the ones with two pieces that slides together than they aren't too bad. But when shipping inside those you need to fill it full with those UD decoy cards. That way the card you are shipping is tight. I have a SPGU 5 patch and it will only fit in one of the 25 count 2 piece boxes. Seems that it fits pretty nice. Not the best thing for displaying cards, that is for sure.

PS:You didn't make the show on Sat.It was a great day for a drive

Someone on here was selling bigger snap cases that can hold the dual shield cards. The corners had the diamond cut outs so it doesn't damage the corners. The name has slipped my mind though.

 

[bbguy24]

I have it stored in a 25 count case now, but it doesn't have the same appeal as a snapdown. Thanks for the information everyone.

Cheers,
mike.

interesting, if the name comes to you, or anyone for that matter let me know please, would love to protect it better

Hi guys, and thanks to nucks4cup to pointing me to this thread.

I sell cases from Japan that are made for cards like the SPGU dual sided super thick patch, and Cup Dual Shield cards.

they are $15 each, delivered in North America to HI members.

Normally they are $15 plus $3 for shipping.

Anyone interested can send me a PM.
