I have a bunch of ETopps (and some other uncirculated cards) in my collection and some of them have the sticker either cracking or peeling off. I've been toying with the idea of "setting them free" and putting them in penny sleeves and top loaders. Was wondering if anyone else does this or opinions on cracking uncirculated cards in general. Those cases kind of annoy me and the cards just kind of bounce around in there anyway, but I could see how they might lose some appeal if I ever decided to sell or trade them. Opinions?

I did the same with my all of my eTopps with the exception of my Ryne Sandberg autograph. They look a lot better without that sticker on top of the case.

I've noticed the same thing with those stickers not sticking properly over time. Probably for resale purposes it may look like it's been tampered with. Might be just as well to take them out and put them in top loaders.

I haven't decided what to do with my PC cards, but the holders definitely do not look nice with that sticker coming off. For now they're staying in the cases, but I eventually might send them for grading.

I put all of mine in graded card bags and seal them very tight. This is one of the exact things I wanted to avoid(sticker peeling). It also helps to keep them from getting scratched.

I put mine in a team bag. Ive thought about opening them, but i cant bring myself to do it. And I peel my cards, youd think I would just crack em open, but i cant.
