Card sleeves

[Khalddrogo]

Oh, really? Wow. Mine are in near-mint condition! XP I'm really careful with them. But anyhow, those PR sleeves, (MD, SW, MT) peel easily. Like in half.
It's frustrating! From LA-on, they've been better.

I got shaymin sleeves. Worst choice I made.
I paid like 20 bucks for them (too much) and I played 1-2 games and one or two broke. I don't even think I have them any more.
Best sleeves for me are PR sleeves.
I got blue DS (Dragon Shields) and I had to resleeve because they were too reflective and broken down. The way I shuffle (bridge style) I need strong durable sleeves, PR seem to do the trick.

Hi guys, I'm a newbie. I just started my collection this month, and I'm interested in these sleeve things you guys keep talking about, but I don't even knew what they look like until I googled it right now. My question is: can you use cards inside sleeves to actually play? How do you shuffle? Isn't it unfair that the other player can see that you have a sleeved card in your deck (he/she can safely assume it's an important card)? I'm a little confused by all of this.

If you guys don't what to stray from the subject of the thread, you can answer me via PM.

I'm pretty sure this is still on topic, but, you can't just put 1 card in your deck in a sleeve, you have sleeve all 60 cards, or none at all. Hope that helped.

Oh, I see. That clears things up. But you know what would be awesome? If someone could post a picture of a fully sleved deck "in play". I'm having a little trouble picturing how would that actually look like.
