Recently, my Walmart carried Ultra Pro brand protectors, sleeves, and pages. However, around three months ago they stopped carrying any kind of card supplies.
Two weeks ago, I noticed supplies were in stock - only this time, it's an offbrand. These are "Card Collector's Sleeves" and "Card Collector's Top Loaders". They are manufactured by "Noteworthy - US". The sleeves work fine. The loaders, however, are a completely different story.
I purchased two packages last week, but finally tried one today. You cannot fit even a 2011 Topps base card into the toploader without risking corner damage. Without a sleeve around the card, you encounter resistance not even halfway down the toploader. It's impossible to fit a 2010 Bowman Platinum base card (sleeved) into the protector.
I was planning on using these for an upcoming trade, but that won't be happening. I wish I had checked these earlier so I could have added loaders to my DA Card World order yesterday.
