Protector Case for Pins 10-Pack Crystal Clear

Great price .

These protectors are all over the internet as one of the leading names in collectible storage. This is largely because they are the only collectible storage for some items. It has nothing to do with quality. It is strictly the lack of alternatives. The FiGPiN protectors are a perfect example.These are slightly better than the film protectors that fade in and out of existence from FiGPiN. The major difference is that these are essentially single use protectors. Once you bend a tab into place, attempting to straighten it out again will cause the tab to go limp and possible even snap off.These protector are packaged like a wholesale item sold directly from the factory. A single sheet of plastic wrap is wrapped around the center of the set. It is wrapped just tight enough to hold them in place, but also loose enough that a good shake can free some of the protectors. It is also no defense against the tabs being bent before the protectors ever leave their original package. If you recall my earlier statement, this also means those protectors are essentially ruined.Assuming you are able to get a decent set of 10 and install them perfectly the first time, they're not the worst protectors. This is why they received a second star. Remember to pull the film off before you seal them, though. The film does cover all the tabs and you would have to bend them back to remove it later. If you want a tip, the film tears along the hinge of the locked tab rather easily, so you can remove JUST that film.

This is good quality for the price. Locking tab works well to secure your collectible.
