It’s a little bit hard to photograph but lately I’ve been having a problem with a lot of my larger tcgplayer orders arriving with a ton of cards jammed into a single toploader, a single sleeve, or both. It’s hard to photograph but these pics are from an order I received today that had 6 cards wedged into a single sleeve and then the whole sandwich stuffed inside a toploader. You can see the bottom seam of the inner sleeve got split from the abuse of having so many cards jammed into what was meant to hold a single card. Two of the cards are noticeably bent. Even if things aren’t damaged from the ordeal of being shipped this way, it’s also quite challenging to remove them from these sleeves when they’re stuffed in so tightly.
I’ve had this happen with cards up to about $20 in value and it’s really starting to piss me off. Even a low-end IR is worthy of its own penny sleeve.
If they can’t package cards without damaging them then sellers shouldn’t be in the business imo.
