Packaging 09 Sweet Spot?

[bct93]

Hey guys,
I don't have time to get on the boards much but I am in dire need of a helping hand. Just busted a couple boxes of 09 Sweet Spot and I am quite pleased to report that I pulled my first ever Jeter auto, a real beauty out of 299. Anyway, from past experience, I've noticed that the sweet spot autos don't seem to fit even in extra thick toploaders. Any advice on what type of case/how to store them? Any help would be much appreciated.

180pt holders will do the trick! That's what I've used for two of my sweet spot autos...

Sounds good! The garden-variety extra thick is 130 pt right?

Correct, and thats what I tried first only to find it didnt work.

Yep! Those sweet spot autos are THICK!!! I pulled an Upton 1/1 and a Billingsley but am jealous of your Jeter.

I use the 10-count snap boxes for all of my sweet spots

Funny the "sweet Spots" in EEE are only half as thick at the UD versions...

I also use the Vintage soft sleeves for Sweet Spot autos, I find the extra thick ones are too wide and look funny in the top loader.

I use those little 10-15 ct snap cases. The card might jiggle a little inside so just fold a penny sleeve in half and put it behind the card. Or use one of those white decoy cards.

You can even use a "semi rigid" also known as a Card Saver. Not the best option but will protect it.

There are also 180pt magnetic holders. Worth the extra cost to protect your PC.
