Re: Card Sleeves
Have another question.
Are there any sleeves for the dungeon cards? Those are pretty big... (I went with the Mayday Games sleeves!) They have a promotion going. 25% off, so if anyone is interested.

Re: Card Sleeves
Already asked and answered during one of the chats. Answer is: Maybe. Depends on the sleeves, but the boxes are designed to fit the cards as SJG specified, not all the sleeves out in the marketplace.

Re: Card Sleeves
I use Yu-Gi-Oh sleeves with opaque backs. I use two different colors, one for treasures and one for doors. They cost nearly as much as the cards themselves, but I like the benefits.
1) In a blended set, don't have to worry about different card backs giving away hints as to what a card might be. 2) I can tape errata to cards, or tape an image of a whole new card on a blank card, and it still shuffles okay. 3) For the German cards that I have, I can write the translation on a slip of paper and place it inside the sleeve. 4) There's a wide variety of colors and styles. For Munchkin Booty, I have pirate-themed sleeves. 5) Easier to shuffle. 6) When playing with kids, I don't have to worry about sticky/gooey hands.

Re: Munchkin-size card sleeves
Thanks for the picture Maydaygames. I went ahead and bought two packs of 100 and they are absolutely the perfect size. I clicked the chart on the site, found Munchkin, and it told me to get the standard USA size. I will definitely buy more Mayday Games card sleeves for when I need more.

Re: Munchkin-size card sleeves
From the picture it looks like a snug fit, I went ahead and bought 12 packs I believe, they had a 25% sale if you knew the coupon code.
Don't know if it's still up there.

Re: Munchkin-size card sleeves
Look, guys and gals, all the Munchkin cards are made "shrink to fit". Toss them into a washing machine and then dry them in the micro wave. They will then fit into whatever size sleeve you want.
You're over thinking this. :) Pat Oh, and for the couple that will think this is serious, IT"S NOT!

Re: How many of you use sleeves?
I hear ya... I have put a lot of money into my collection and I want them to be save... and we get the cards mixed up some times. Having different colored sleeves will cut down on the miss shuffling. and I want to mix other sets into my decks too. I think it would be easier to have them sleeved so we don't see the colored card edges...
