My new GOFU card

That's very cool Jackie. IMHO much cooler than the Triple - it epitomises the GOF movie, and the design is 1000x better... but in an ideal collection it's nice to have both

By the way, you reminded me that I recently saw this auto up for auction:



Can you see the bubbles? I think it's because the owner has put the card in a screwdown protector inside a penny sleeve... they weren't designed to hold both, so there's not enough room... and cards can be damaged this way... so just be careful folks.

That's excellent, Jackie!  Congrats!

Roz, I think you're right in what the owner did with the card.  You CAN in fact use a penny sleeve (or slip sleeve - whatever you want to call it) with a snap tite holder, but it's an effort to get it to fit well.  So much easier to leave the card loose inside the hard card holder (snap tite or screwdown or magnet holder).  I only use penny sleeves with top loaders.

Still, I wouldn't mind having that card in my collection... I'm just not a die hard collector or have been lucky enough to pull one.

And that Quad card is SWEET!

I think the bubbles are in the penny sleeve, not on the card. I suspect that if the penny sleeve were to be removed the bubbles would disappear. Of course, I might be incorrect.

[kbmum]

I think so, too, but I'd be concerned that the card (especially the corners) might be damaged.

[Roz]

Oh, I'm sure the bubbling is not the card, but I wouldn't recommend cramming it in like that.. there's always a chance of damage, it's just something to be aware of when trying to protect your own cards... a penny sleeve always seems like extra protection.

Another new card for my collection:



Now I have to stop buying other cards since I want to have some boxes as soon as the OotP set is beeing released.

Here are my two new cards. I'm really pleased with them as i only had a single box.





I thought the material looked quite dark compared to the dress so i think it might be from the belt. I took the first photo with the flash on and i thought that this was the reason that it looked quite dark so i took one without the flash and it still looks darker than the dress so i think it backs up my theory that this piece of material is from the belt.
