I flat out prefer the tight fit penny sleeves anyway. I hate them larger penny sleeves they ripple after a couple days in a binder. So for me, this binder is perfect minus not having a zipper

[@GODSWORD7x7x7]

Where do you get your penny sleeves from? Just curious because I also like the penny sleeves because I can put them in the magnetic holders as well as binders, and they just fit better in everything without that extra lip on top.

[@snorlore]

For basically a five dollar binder, it's really good. I use the ETB sleves, and they fit fine. I know the're not as clear, but I'm leaning into the whole experience that Pokemon is offering. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Also worth mentioning, the binder holds 360 cards, which is the exact number needed for the master set, not including promos or holo energies.

[@nathanrogers8040]

151 has been so good to me. Every product I've bought has not disappointed me. 3 Charizard EX, 2 Erika's invitation, almost a full master set. It's been a good one. Haven't had this fun with a set in a while

[@BrandonKistler7]

Damn man! I thought my pulls were good! I have had 3 erikas invitations, SIR, Giovannis Charisma SIR, 2 psychic golds, and a switch gold. A few Full art EX and SRs. But still no Charizard SIR. Still think my pulls are worth more than what I spent, about 55 packs.

[@dylanfitzpatrick9423]

Same I’ve been truely blessed I bought 1 case of etbs and the only cards I’m missing are SIR zapdos and pikachu illustration rare

[@markcraig-williams7223]

This set is the 2nd coming…bought a etb a put a full rare art veneasuar and now am hooked

[@howdyusa]

Are you still buying 151?

[@drmonstervibes]

The binder product is one of the releases I wish Pokemon company made permanent with every new set! It's very nice and my sleeves fit perfectly. ETBs on the other hand aren't worth it, I had the worst luck with them and if you can find booster bundles, don't bother with them (ETBs)..

[@oldmanjake6541]

Agree 🙂👍

[@behappy-d2z]

Had also better luck with Bundles. 😊

[@SmokeyStee]

Hmm that must be why bundles are 50 dollars now lol. I been buying etbs, im on number 26 and no charizard or SAR so I guess I know my problem. I have seen a couple youtubers pull bangers out of etbs too but after my luck with them I agree with you.

[@nightowl7261]

I bought the binder product. I was so disappointed in the pulls. 4 pack. 0 hits. That I just threw them all into the binder. No sleeves for holo at all. Close the binder up and threw it in a box. Lol So yeah its hog shit alright.

[@MrHinojosa1981]

I keep my cards in the ultipro 9 pocket sleeves and I put them back to back so I can fit 18 cards on one sleeve. Should I put my rare cards in penny sleeves too or is it okay to just put them in the sleeves by themselves?

[@MistahStompy]

The binder issue isn't just a binder issue. The Ultra Pro penny sleeves you are using vary in size as well. I just pull out another Ultra Pro penny sleeve, and it fits fine.

[@mau333gon]

I got two binders and the bottom row on one doesn't fit regular sleeves, only the 151 sleeves, the other binder fits all sleeves perfect, so I think some just have imperfections

[@BrandonKistler7]

Ohhh man, I'm bummed to hear that. I love mine. I'm doing my master collection in it. I haven't seen any issues with it. Besides my bad sequencing 😅😅 but try another box and I hope it works out for you!

[@charliechuckleberry5307]

$25 Binder is actually a good deal, but the $55 ETB is a HORRIBLE DEAL (WHY DO YOU THINK THERE ARE 10+ STILL IN STOCK?) it comes with 2 FEWER PACKS for the same cost as a Pokemon Center ETB at nearly the same price. WTF?

[@VincentYuen]

It happens in all ultra pro binders when using their ultra pro penny sleeves. If using ultra pro binders, use BWC penny sleeves instead since they are shorter.

[@DrApplesauceTwo]

This supports my statement tbh. Lol. Kinda silly you can’t use the same brands penny sleeves

[@hidefstatic]

Also, I use ultra pro standard sleeves and using the 151 binder and I haven't had any issues

[@DrApplesauceTwo]

Maybe mines defective then

[@lostorgins]

All of my big hit's were from binder and poster collection. 6 etb's and everyone was garbage. You're spot on about the binder I wasted 6 hour's of my time and to top it off a master set doesn't even fit in the binder.

[@2736492821]

booster bundles?

[@zibbymw6380]

I would not really say that that is a issue because you could just use perfect fit sleeves instead

[@zibbymw6380]

also the binder is not made for other sleeves, they are made for pokemon's own sleeves which do fit better than the penny sleeves

[@PikaCATsoup]

So I personally use perfect fit sleeves, so I’m sure I won’t have that problem when I find the time to fill my 151 binder. But I had to see for myself if the top row is what you say it is and your right but my top row wasn’t as bad as your binder, it was a tad too small and would hate the binder but again, I use perfect fit sleeves for my master sets, so I’ll give it a pass.

[@thecommoncollector]

I actually like the binder collection box! I wish they would do that for every set so you know what set is which when they’re stacked on your shelf!

[@theyo-kaiguy]

Dude, the binder collection is actually really good, I found a Venusaur illustration rare from that, also I don't think it allows you to use the ultra pro penny sleeves, however I use the sleeves that come with the ETB and they work just fine.

[@cm_0011]

I like the Binder Collection - I needed one to make a complete set for 151. At this point I don’t just go for “value per pack”, I go for things that have exclusives that I like. I agree that the size of the slots varies and not every penny sleeve fits - I put some without penny sleeves, but I’m gonna get the tighter fit ones - they’re much nicer anyways

[@PokeSquirtleBlue]

Love that last pac majic

[@PopLifeToys]

My wife pulled the SAR zard yesterday out of the two etb’s we battled each other with

[@DrApplesauceTwo]

Nice!

[@tacktiician4978]

I use Vault X EXACT FIT sleeves so i never have had an issue. The Binder i got has been great.

[@michaelzawitoski1842]

I used the ETB sleeves for the bulk, and I really didn’t have an issue for the most part.

[@erwinvalmoria5277]

Question: can the ETB sleeves fit on the top row of that bunder? If it fits, the binder is still a great buy imo 🙂

[@jamienava6750]

I pulled a Blastoise EX from the Binder Collection. It's one of the most valuable cards from this set!

[@gmed7652]

Certain card holes have caused issues when trying to fit the card in. Others work fine for sleeves whether it’s a penny sleeve or etb sleeve. No problem at all when using no sleeve lol. Maybe I didn’t fully use sleeves on all my cards because I didn’t wanna struggle. I had been given a couple like exact fit sleeves and no issues with those. I have seen some product in the wild, although majority of stuff I bought was from whatnot, and Pre-order on GameStop. I got 4 booster bundles ( 3 came with 3 hits each , other only 1 hit ). Both etbs with 4 hits each. Binder 2 hits. Poster 1 hit.

[@masterjiraiya224]

I put penny sleeves on my cards when put them in binders as well. I didn’t have any issues with this binder and sleeves.

[@guardian_dcf]

I picked one up for my daughter and like you said it is a beautiful binder BUT the issue I had is it doesn’t fit the entire master set (reverses, energies, and promos). **I may be a little ocd lol 😂** I opted for the white Vault X 12 pocket. Will use the 151 binder for overflow and extra hits. Nice content as always! 👍

[@DrApplesauceTwo]

I might go for that too!

[@emceeRIPZ]

I use Vault X penny sleeves and they all seem to fit just fine in all rows of the binder. Maybe you got a defective one?

[@lxiong1077]

In regards to that binder problem I was baffled when my son and I were trying to insert the cards for the set with standard penny sleeves.. it is hot garbage so I just end up using 151 sleeves sad😢

[@DrApplesauceTwo]

Peopel trolling me for this video, but no less than a dozen people have commented or messaged me with the same issue lol.

[@HitmonLee86]

Pokémon Center vending machine has 151. Wasn't able to find anywhere else yet.

[@shinypuller]

considering packs at 6 dollars a piece online. getting this binder collection for 23.97 at gamestop is a smoking deal. The poster pack has 3 packs and a poster. how is the binder more trash. i get the ultra pro sleeves get messy but still. best deal and product so far in 151

[@Trogdor280]

Now I know Im not the only one that wasnt able to put my sleeve card in this binder lol

[@DrApplesauceTwo]

Dang!

[@ArchDuke519]

I bought the binder collection just to have the binder as well. I put my cards in Dragon Shield Matte sleeves and didn't really have any big issues. It's a little tough to get the cards in and out but it looks ok while I wait for my Dex Protection Zip binder that'll replace it to come in.

[@hidefstatic]

I got a Blastoise god pack and Zapados Ex SAR in one ETB...so I think you're onto something with the stacked or not products.

[@DrApplesauceTwo]

I think so too….

[@ashdouglas9523]

My binder was absolutely fine but my friends is like yours...I think it was the top row as well, yet the middle row has that extra room 😅

[@gtpanda318]

Man’s complaining about a sleeve not fitting in a sleeve binder💀

[@slayerfoxracing1392]

The 151 binder that I got fits them perfectly with the ultra pro penny sleeves, you must have gotten one with bad stitching placement

[@DrApplesauceTwo]

I think the QC on this product must have been iffy. A lot of people are having similar issues

[@kmzano03]

The binder I got seems to work fine. Cards and sleeves fit. Maybe you got an error binder?

[@Iamwillz]

Nah. He just using shitty ultra pro penny sleeves. Who uses ultra pro 😂😂😂😂😂

[@DrApplesauceTwo]

Idk. A lot of other people are commenting with the same issue

[@Boomdiers]

Actually my binder collection had an god pack inside it. So my was definitely worth it.

[@CamaroMan514]

My Best Buy stocked the UPCs today. I tried buying a couple but they weren’t logged into the system yet so I’ll have to wait

[@AvatarKid4]

Wish the energy’s weren’t hits

[@joshphillips1288]

Little late to the game here, but the sleeves you get in the ETB fit perfectly in the binder. Not saying I agree with it, but it’s like they wanted you to use the special 151 sleeves with the 151 binder.

[@solongcmu]

The binder I got only had one top row that didnt fit correctly. Luckily it was after the set had ended and was the page where I started putting the hollow energies.

[@detectivehuxtx5155]

My 1st poster collection was fire (Squirtle and Blastoise SIR's), 2nd was just ok. ETB and Binder Collection had some good hits for me. Binder is a great deal after pack cost ($5ish), haven't noticed any issues with my binder, but I'll check again when I get home.

[@DrApplesauceTwo]

Noice!!!

[@Troutfisch]

151 has done us right so far, 2 Gold Mews, several IRs, and 3 SIRs (including a demigod pack with the Venusaur line). That said I’ve had 2 ETBs where the only 2 hits were both Caterpie IR and Kangaskhan Ex so batching confirmed lol

[@aljosak.1745]

Easy solution, use fit sleeves instead of loose ones.

[@Ben-Jammin1989]

I’ve opened 4 ETBs so far. Honestly, no luck. I had much better luck with my Japanese pulls though. Can’t wait to get my UPC on Friday!

[@luissanchez3146]

I use the dragon shield perfect fit sleeves they fit good or if you just sleeve them with the sleeves the etb comes they fit great as well

[@johnnycostilla1464]

Just got the binder set yesterday and I use the sleeves from etb boxes they fit fine. I pulled a daisys help, ninetails ex and gold switch . I was missing these cards definitely a good pick up for me.

[@katrinaguillou3335]

I know I may be one of the few to do this but I double sleeve so I use perfect fit sleeves then ones that come from ETBs and those fit perfectly…some were snug, but no ripples like yours. I do see how that can happen and its unfortunate though

[@Takar100]

I get some of the smaller sleeves because even in my ultra pro binder, it's a TTIIIGGHHHHTTT fit with a regular sleeve on, so I figured I'd go with the better/smaller sleeves.

[@chaitanyaadiga260]

havent had those issues with the binder. pulls were decent not amazing but the top row fit my cards just fine. cant win them all

[@clemmy.]

151 was no disappointment for me . don't let some one fool you.

[@DrApplesauceTwo]

the set is awesome

[@PokeTr0yz]

I've opened 12 ETBs outta my left over product once I made my money back and I'm still 4 cards out. I haven't opened any UPCs or Zapados or Alakazam boxes and I only kept one Binder and one poster box to keep sealed. I personally love the set but wish I could get the Zard AR in English since zi was lucky enuff to pull a god pack in Japanese and I got it in Japanese but want it in English. But got 2 Erica's Invitation Regular and in SAR

[@erosdemise1359]

I just use tightfit sleeves for my binders, have not had any issues.

[@PokeStacks]

151 has treated me well, thankfully! I do agree though, some videos I watch are very successful, some are very unsuccessful. Seems like the pull rates are completely random!

[@dominickmagoon5731]

2 etb got blastoise alt and weedle and blastoise ex

[@thecommoncollector]

Also, if you use the sleeves from the etbs the cards fit perfect!

[@KillaDot909]

I live in California. They steal Pokemon products all the time. No way I would ever catch on ETB out in the wild at Target like this lol. They only put up a handful of each item at once on a tiny shelf by checkout 🙄

[@ecampa79]

How do I spot a fake Korean Pokémon card?? Is it the same as other fakes? I bot some packs of 151 Korean that did not have the ink line

[@DrApplesauceTwo]

To my knowledge, there’s not fake Korean cards. The ink line I BELIEVE only apples to English?

[@Tousomecollectibles]

4:13 I have the same problem. I bought a binder from Walmart and it’s the same. I can’t even use my sleeves

[@DrApplesauceTwo]

Dang!

[@josephsheppard2542]

I have gotten two elite set and the binder set and in two days will be getting the upc set as well

[@shadowblade8717]

I got the binder collection box I got pretty lucky with it, all 4 packs had a regular art rare or better in it pulse I pulled the card I wanted most from the set in one of the packs also I don't use the peny sleeves on the binder so never really ran into the problem

[@DrApplesauceTwo]

Not bad!

[@ChengAhLang]

only in card shops... Target, Walmart, etc.. no luck.

[@elizag8073]

I found the ultra premium collection and the mini tins for Pokémon 151 at Walmart today. No good hits though. Very disappointing.

[@DrApplesauceTwo]

Dang

[@spencerharper6182]

I’m sorry but I like the binder! Collecting my first master set and even the wife got into it somehow. That is aggravating with the sleeves I don’t blame you. I’ve been using the etb sleeves even though not as clear I want it to have everything 151 in it. Thanks for the video great pool! Be the change!!!

[@DrApplesauceTwo]

Don’t be sorry! If you’re happy, that’s great!

[@derricklavender717]

I use BCW penny sleeves they are cut a little shorter so I use them for all binder cards

[@xESPplayer500x]

I use dragon shields inner AND mid sleeves and they fit perfect.

[@Fg4_daily]

I have the same issue with the binder. I still put them inside for now until I get something else. VaultX all white binder? Idk looks pretty nice lol

[@DrApplesauceTwo]

That’s what I’m thinking about getting

[@Fg4_daily]

@@DrApplesauceTwo and the sleeves are white 🤔

[@johnyseimah229]

who the fk uses penny sleeves on cards in a binder....you use the perfect fit ones for that

[@jaythelion90lions_den_coll50]

U can use smaller sleeves that arnt long dragon shield sleeves work wonders and fit everything

[@MrTacogood]

No wild hunting for me this set unfortunately can't convince myself to buy English lol

[@DrApplesauceTwo]

Understandable

[@chrispike2696]

Feel like it is a problem with the sleeves and not the binder 🤷

[@spunkyrunner_tcg]

Almost 2 weeks in to opening 151…that was an amazing ETB you opened 😬 our first etb was better but everything since has been pure pain.

[@DrApplesauceTwo]

Ouch!

[@LadyHavokk]

funny i pulled a charizard god pack out of a binder collection you just got a shit binder :( too bad

[@hieinh]

I laughed when I saw the evolving powers box. That is the most fake looking box I've ever seen

[@DrApplesauceTwo]

Not a great product lol

[@finalhearts676]

Bro you always gotta use perfect fit slevves for a binder tho, not penny sleeves! Dude, most binders are made like these that I have ever bought! This is standard stuff, nothing wrong with the 151 binder at all!

[@DrApplesauceTwo]

I hav 7 or 8 other ultra pro and vault x binders, high quality ones, have always used these sleeves and never had this issue before.

[@BrandonKistler7]

Binder collections ate actually fire! I have pulled 2 and got 2 SAR and 2 full art ex! It's all luck of the draw! ETB is for sure the worst pulls. From what I've seen and from my experience+ 3 outta 10 of poster boxes but I did get 2 grade 10 erikas invitations. So pull rate is low but again I got lucky! Theres no rhyme or reason. But I did hear UPCs are nice!

[@oldmanjake6541]

I opened 5 etbs….they were trash. 😂 I actually like the 151 binder…a little tight…but works fine with ETB sleeves. 👍🙂

[@DrApplesauceTwo]

Sorry about the ETB luck

[@behappy-d2z]

Dont get it that you saying its garvage and then you love it. Its Pokemon cards from the old days that some people is very happy to see. You open properbly more packs than a normal working person do and the merc products give a nice deal for some. It was a blummer see the first row being smaller but Collectors I think know what they choose to put there card in the best cast. Super good you noticed it and that Venusaur SIR is one of the most beautiful ones. Good luck next time on the Magic. 😊 Looking forward to the UPC.

[@StonedReaper23]

I use the same exact sleeves and they fit perfectly fine…

[@bradensorensen966]

That ATV, at least broke even dude.

[@DarkTruth1]

The ETB sleeves fit perfectly in that binder

[@DrApplesauceTwo]

But the ETB sleeve are Frosted and not clear

[@Vanklin2605]

It would fit those smaller size sleeves or the perfect fit sleeves fine, such a nice binder but I’m also going to be using zippered binder for my 151 set.

[@DrApplesauceTwo]

Great idea!!

[@TheB3n3dictShow]

I had better luck opening Obsidian Flames packs than 151. I got the UPC today so we will see if that one a a game changer.

[@DrApplesauceTwo]

OF was brutal to me lol

[@Krausen2]

The binder product is a great value and i would dare to say it might potentially be one of the best. It's a rare case where the binder is actually high quality and beautiful design. On top of that you get 4 packs, for the price point i think its a great product.

[@DrApplesauceTwo]

I have to disagree. It’s nice. It’s def convenient and beautiful, but is not high quality. It’s about the cheapest quality you can get without going to a 3 ring binder. Definitely a fair price, if the sleeve issue wasn’t there

[@behappy-d2z]

I use Ultra Pro for Collecting but this is nice with 4-packs and maybe dome as a starter product. First binder from the brand. 😊 Its not that bad

[@Ssavva1285]

Bought the binder collection for my kids and my son got the Zard

[@PokeTr0yz]

I used Exact Fit sleeves for the top rows

[@skystoyhunts7225]

Im still going to try to get sll 151 cards stuff and keep them sealed for decades

[@destinyvasquez6849]

Well stop using sleeves for ur reverse cards and use them only on the better cards

[@tylermccoy8593]

All I got from my etb was that same Arbok EX lol and it was damaged in the center of the card. I did get 3 holo energy cards

[@DrApplesauceTwo]

Big oof

[@sarahslone8598]

Every binder I have ever bought has had those size of sleeves bunch up. I use vault x exact fit and they are perfect

[@DrApplesauceTwo]

I’ve never had an issue with these sleeve with any vault x binder

[@sarahslone8598]

Hmmm strange

[@MarketScraper]

Crappy ETB? One of the better one's I've seen 🔥🎉

[@wvoutdoors]

I found a poster collection and bought one Pokemon 151

[@DrApplesauceTwo]

Nice! That’s what I was looking for today!

[@IvanDaWalrus]

It's an eh etb. I've had decent pulls best one was zaptos sir

[@javiertorre7396]

I bought one of those binder bricks even tho I have one coming in from Walmart and got lucky cuz I got a second Erica’s invitation sir. Still searching for blastoise sir so now I have trade bait.

[@finchk.6402]

disappointment? they doesn't fit because of your sleeves! xD just change them :)

[@DrApplesauceTwo]

They’re literally ultra pro sleeves that fit in all of my other binders. Why should I have to buy different sleeves just to use this binder? Know what I mean? 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@brianpavelko792]

can use the bajillion 151 sleeves you get from ETB's lol

[@joseposadas9514]

Hot tip? Sounds like a group of guys who go around buying up all the product to me😅

[@DrApplesauceTwo]

Or perhaps a few people who look out and text each other when they spot Local restocks? If it was your suggestion, there would be no product on the shelf when I got there. Lol

[@thescotchhunter8770]

Yea sucks…mine has smaller rows in the bottom!!

[@DrApplesauceTwo]

Wow wack!

[@akimatthews9888]

i got the UPC and got one hit in 16 packs...

[@DrApplesauceTwo]

Ooooof I’m sorry
