What it does
Rigid 3 x 4 inch clear PVC holders for standard trading and sports cards up to 35pt thick; reviewed here as the Vault X 35pt toploader this purchase maps to.
- Rigid holder that guards against bends, scuffs and surface damage
- Sized for Pokemon, Magic and other TCG cards plus paper stock sports base cards
- Made to pair with Vault X soft penny sleeves
- Seamless build that Vault X says improves durability
- Also sold in coloured frame versions
A sensible pick for collectors who want rigid storage for ordinary TCG cards and base sports cards from a brand that states archival safe, plasticiser free PVC. The trade-off is that some buyers report bits of loose plastic inside new toploaders, so check each one before inserting a card, and thick chrome or patch cards need a 55pt size instead.

Questions
What cards fit a 35pt toploader?
Most standard TCG cards and paper stock sports base cards. Chrome and Prizm cards usually need 55pt.
Does a card need a penny sleeve inside a toploader?
Sizing guides recommend sleeving every card first to protect the surface and edges as it slides in.
What does pt mean on a toploader?
Points measure thickness; 1 pt is 0.001 inch, so 35pt is the card thickness the holder is rated for.
Are Vault X toploaders PVC?
Yes. Vault X says they are archival safe PVC free from plasticisers and stearates.
What if a card will not fit?
Do not force it. Move up to the next thickness, such as 55pt.
