I just got a new pack of Comic Care polyethylene SA sleeves. I've used these for years and really like them. The package says the sleeves measure 7 1/8" x 10 1/2". I tried bagging and boarding a pile of BA and SA books and they're way too tight. WTH? So I pulled out a sleeve from last year's package and found the new SA sleeves are 1/8" narrower. The size of the boards has not changed from the last package I bought, only the sleeves. First pic shows a narrow new sleeve over the old one, second pic shows the older style sleeve is clearly 7 1/4", not 7 1/8" wide.
Does anyone have an older pack of comic Care SA polyethylene sleeves? If so, can you check the measurements stated on the package? Is the width 7 1/8" or 7 1/4"? There's no way these are supposed to fit. It's difficult to slide the board into the empty sleeve, let alone a comic and a board both. And a thicker book would be out of the question. What gives?
I've tried to find a website for Comic Care to inquire further but no luck. Does anyone know if they have one? Thanks for any insights on this.
