Default Superior Fit sleeves make PSA slabs way sexier AKA pants down

Friends,

This is not a new revelation. Indeed, I only discovered Superior fit (was perfect fit before?) as a result of many board recommendations. I finally ordered my own, and sleeved my PSA slabs as well as my top loaded collection.

I cannot believe how much better the PSA sleeves are than any other sleeve I've ever used. My slabs are now sexy af. Slabs should come from grading in these sleeves. They. Are. Incredible.

I dont work for this company but I will note that it seems this is a Canadian innovation? In that case I'm likely blood related.

Buy these sleeves and fall in love with your slabs again!

Skeptical isnt the right word exactly, but I didn't think I'd be blown away with a sleeve.

I would never buy another brand now that I have seen the light. I have the bgs sleeves on order as well.

They're amazing. I ordered some for my PSA cases and for my mag cases. The BGS ones don't fit properly, but I'm sure they're working on it.

That's unfortunate on the bgs fit. They were out of stock on those when I ordered my first batch, so i had to double back a few days ago. Possible they recalibrated them with the new stock? I was definitely hoping for a great fit like the psa/toploader ones.

From my experience with the BGS sleeves, I think because of the thickness of cases and the sharper, 90° edges, that is why there is a little more room on the sides. PSA's thinner cases with rounded edges are the perfect example of what type of cases fit these sleeves well.

Ive had one batch of BGS sleeves that fit great, and one batch that didn't - but always the PSA and toploader sleeves have been great. The SGC sleeves are good too.

I put those things on everything; slabs, one touches, top loaders. They are amazing. Fit great and keep cases from getting scratched up.

I have a ton of the other sleeves and really don't want to double dip on it and have left over stuff... I guess I will have to sell more now and use those up to order these haha

For those that have -- how secure is the seal. Would they protect against potential water damage?

Like a coffee spill? Probably, yes. Being submerged in water? No.

Can also find them on eBay. Just double check to make sure you’re getting the right size.

Maybe just me, but I think they even enhance the visual in some cases. Minor scratches/marks seem to disappear. Love these things and the customer service has been top shelf.

These look nice. Ironic though- the market has now taken us to getting protective cases for the protective case.
