Instead of continuing to do what I always do and potentially destroy the sides of cards I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on how to loosen cards in a complete set that are all stuck together. Thanks!

I've heard freezing them for awhile

just sayin'
So what do you guys do? Put these bastards in penny sleeves?
Basically, any glossy or UV coated cards from the '90s until present will do it. And not just sets, but cards in packs too.I hate to bump such an old thread, but I opened a factory set from the early 2000s (Topps), and the cards were a brick. I've experienced this with some of the Score sets from the mid 90s, so I was aware of the issue. I've heard the 2001 Topps set is usually pretty bad.
Is there a definitive period to really keep an eye on stickiness/brick issue? We're talking '93 or '94 on the early side? And when does this generally end? Are the mid 2000 Topps sets ok?
One of the reasons I like Heritage is that this is never an issue (although I store most of my sets in binders anyway), but I'm curious which Topps factory sets this generally occurs.
