Just got some dragon shield sleeves. I thought I remember reading someone double sleeving. I was wondering the pros and cons and what they use for the sleeve inside if it was dragon shield.

KMC perfect fits are what I use. The only con I see is the size of the deck.

Noah double sleeves with perfect fits inside of the dragon shields. The deck won't fit in one box and it looks like a PITA to shuffle. I wouldn't bother unless you have real (and I mean really real) value in the deck.

Pro- protects your cards really well

Con - cost of sleeves (spending double! And on dragon shields!)
-sleeving a deck twice. That's 200 cards for EDH
-Pain in the ass to change out

I would say yes if you know it's never gonna change...

Rass

What's the reason to double sleeve though? Have you messed up cards in single sleeves

When you have a playset of foil {jace! the mind sculptor} you do t want to take any chances.

Yea but I figured if it's a pain to put it in two sleeves there is a chance you could mess it up then

I double sleeve. KMC Perfect Fit inside a KMC Super. The deck is bigger, but it fits perfectly in my Leifkicker box (and Dragon shield gaming deckbox before it).

It's the only way to go. All it takes is one drunk maniac to knock a beer/soda all over your cards.

Do you put them in the sleeves the same way? Or put the open side in first in the second sleeve. So the first sleeve will be upside down in the second sleeve.

Yeah you put the perfect fit onto it upside down, put the card with the perfect fit in the correct way. Virtually seals it off completely.

Penny sleeve twice.
I thought that but penny's are tiny so I figured it wouldn't work

I've gotten repacks inside of two penny sleeves.

Magician? :|

But anyways main point is double sleeve. Although watch the cost.

Thanks for the insight. Gonna try one set and see what happens.
