I am looking to buy oversized top loaders to fit some of my oversized cards I currently have and may acquire in the future. I want to buy the smallest top loader possible to do the job. Additionally, I would like to store them similar to normal cards -- i.e. card into soft sleeve, soft sleeve into top loader. Topps makes box toppers that go up to around 5x7 in size. Two questions arise from my needs:
1. When Ultra Pro or BCW gives top loader/soft sleeve sizes that say "5x7", for instance, does that mean the whole holder itself is 5x7, or does that mean it can fit cards up to 5x7 on size? In other words, will a 5x7 card fit into it?
2. I see UP has 5x7 soft sleeves. Will 5x7 soft sleeves fit into 5x7 top loaders? (If not, that seems like a really, really stupid product to me, but I figured I should ask anyway.)
Edit: Never mind, I answered my own question by going to the BCW website and looking at the fine print. 5x7 toploaders will hold 5x7 cards, and 5x7 soft sleeves will fit in 5x7 toploaders, which makes my life easy.
