[TCG] How to take care of TCG cards?

[TrainerDerek]

Yep, imediatly sleeving and placing them in your binder is the way to go. Just make sure your binder dosn't creass anywhere where it might put pressure on the cards. Some of the flimsy cheaper ones with built in pages do this. I also don't reccomend placing a card in the front and back of the same slip if your going for perfection even though it saves on having to get more pages. For somthing that you want to really protect grab a pack of penny sleeves. A card in them will fit into a binder just a little better then a full sized sleeve you would normally use for play. If there's anything you DO want to use for play, take a penny sleeve and put it on the card with the opening facing the bottom of the card, then slide that into a regular play sleeve with the opening of that faceing the top. 

I was a really big into TCG for awhile and kinda upset I didn't hang onto more when i quit just for collection purposes. Just 2 pages of ampharoses and some EX's.
