Sleeve Kings Sleeves FAQ

These FAQs can guide your decision on purchasing a set of our quality card sleeves.

What is the purpose of card sleeves? 

Card sleeves protect your cards from everyday wear and tear and accidental spills. Card sleeves can also protect your cards from environmental damage caused by sunlight and moisture.

Card sleeves support easy handling as well. If your cards are thin and flimsy, sleeves make shuffling easier. Sleeves also help distinguish your cards from everyone else's.

Do sleeves scratch cards? 

Card sleeves do not scratch cards if you follow instructions and confirm that small particles are not trapped in the sleeve prior to insertion.

How important is double sleeving? 

Double sleeving is not necessary but is highly recommended to provide extra protection against accidental spills.

How do you properly sleeve cards? 

First, inspect your card sleeves for any dust or dirt. Remove particles as necessary. Next, hold your card sleeve between your thumb and index finger and gently slide the back and front sides together to form a small pocket. Slide your card into the pocket and push down until your card is fully covered.

How do you flatten sleeves on cards? 

To prevent bubbling, select a sleeve that is very close to your card's exact size. To flatten your sleeved cards, weigh them down on a warm surface with several heavy books.

What are the best strategy board games for adults?

• Settlers of Catan
• Risk
• Dominion
• Pandemic
• Terraforming Mars
• Splendor

These games include cards that should be protected to ensure that they last for a long time.

What games do adults like to play?

Popular adult games are typically easy to learn but challenging to win. Playtime can range from 30 minutes to three hours. Longer games are usually enjoyed by board game enthusiasts. Most of these games feature playing cards that should be sleeved.

Combined Shipping

If you aren't aware, Swan Panasia shares a warehouse in Utah, USA with both MaydayGames.com and SwanPanasiaSleeves.com.  If you want to order some Sleeve Kings products along with products from either of those websites we can easily combine the orders and refund you any shipping across any of these three sites.  Please just put in your orders from the same email account and be sure they are both shipping to the same address, then email to support@sleevekings.com with the email subject of "Combined Shipping".  Tell us the two order numbers and Curt will combine the two orders in our shipping software and refund you back the difference.  Note that sometimes our warehouse is TOO efficient and ships out before we can get the word to combine orders, but if that happens Curt will still refund your shipping.

Other Items FAQ

Please contact our support team at support@sleevekings.com if you have any questions about any of our sleeves.

EU & UK Orders:

If you are in the UK or EU and want to purchase card sleeves we cannot sell to you from this website.  Doing so would require us to remit VAT taxes to all EU countries and the UK and it just isn't practical for us to do that.  Instead you can order from maydaygames.eu and we will ship directly from our partner warehouse in Greece.  Note that maydaygames.eu carries all Sleeve Kings sleeves as well as Mayday card sleeves.  Please do not try to check out on any shipments to the EU or the UK from our website as we will only have to refund you for the order and ask you to order from our EU website.
