Vault X 12 Pocket Trading Card Strap Binder, 480 cards, Standard, 20 Side-Loading Pages, Folder for Collectible Card Games, Sports, TCG (Yellow)

Hands down one of the best TCG binders you can get.

This isn’t the first time we had purchased this product. This is our FOURTH binder. We loved the first one that we got another, and another, and another. Some color options have been limited stock out out of stock when I went to order, so I would get your favorite color if it’s available!

The yellow gives it a beautiful glow. Very durable and affordable. Came well packaged with no Issues. Fits perfectly in my backpack

perfect

I bought this because of a YouTube streamer. Code was vaultsquad. This is a great binder and I love it. Great quality and fits my sleeved cards perfectly!

This binder is great for MASTER collections! Collections that have the entire sets. I out the entire "chilling reign" master pokemon set in this binder.... Thats 340 cards! And theres lots of room left still! Could probably fit 2 sets in 1 📓

Great for card collections 12 per page - 400 card slots total front & back included

Recently started collecting cards again to update my old Pokemon collection, and that includes upgrading to something less '90s than the massive 3-inch D-ring zipper binder they were in. There are a handful of companies with products that get rave reviews, and I went with VaultX's 12 Pocket Strap Binder. I believe in fair reviews, and now that I have this item in my hands I don't see what all the hype is about. By the way the product is advertised it made me think this was some kind of hard-shelled ringless binder, not just a fancy manila folder. It's not a grievance I have with this brand in particular, this style of binder in general simply doesn't offer the kind of protection a standard chunky D-ring binder does. === The product description boldly declares how much protection and security this binder provides, it even points out how VaultX products are "made by MTG Vault" and "real life card gamers". Alright, am I supposed to know what MTG Vault is? Do they make steel deck boxes or something? And have you ever hung out with real life card gamers? We used to set cards on fire or throw them at cars for fun (pre-internet days were great, right?). Ever see the average real life card gamer put cards into sleeves or try to extract them from a binder? How many Pokemon cards have we destroyed by shoving our fingers in there and pinching a big fat crease across Poliwag's face? Won't someone please think of the Poliwags? Are problems like these what VaultX addressed after having long hard sweaty business meetings with real life card gamers? Let's find out! === The first thing I noticed is how flexible this binder is, in other words, how floppy. Floppiness is not something I want protecting my cards! A $2 D-ring binder offers way more protection than this thing, and even after buying pages for it it's still less expensive than this binder. Imagine a D-ring binder but you removed the hard cardboard covers that offered all the protection, leaving only the soft vinyl, then welded the pages to the inner spine. That's what you're getting here. The plastic covers are stiff enough to hold their shape when upright, but I have no confidence the cards in it will survive in a kid's backpack, or accidentally placing something heavy on it. Even having someone accidentally pick it up by one corner, without supporting the other end, can be enough to bend all the cards in that corner. Without even adding a card yet, I already recommend you don't travel with this binder. If it had hard covers I would say maybe, but without anything rigid to keep things from crushing/bending the cards, this binder is best kept at home. Now let's slot some cards in there! === The black "padding" layer consists of many raised circles on one side of a page and inverted pits on the other. I'm almost 100% sure I've seen this stuff used to separate layers in boxes of chocolates. I guess it does offer some level of cushioning, it probably also helps prevent suction to some degree. The "high-grade elastic strap" does its job at keeping the binder closed. It doesn't deflect bullets or convert toxic waste into Dr. Pepper Cream Soda though, so I'm not sure that "high-grade" tag is completely warranted. I decided to also give VaultX's Perfect Fit Sleeves a shot and use them in the binder, along with some random Ultra Pro sleeves with the annoying hologram. The binder pockets are roomy, I don't think you'll have to worry about a sleeve being slightly too big, it'll effortlessly slide in there with a few millimeters to spare. Taking them out is slightly easier because you have a little more slack to work with. Cool. There are two extra layers of plastic welded to the inside of the covers, and unfortunately they're a little crooked, it's enough to create some sharp stabby bits around the edges of the binder. I was sliding my fingers around the edges to feel the construction and got cut, but instead of showing you that mess, in the one pic you can see how easily they can shred a sleeve. The corners of the binder are rounded off, so why didn't VaultX bother rounding those sharp edges too? The binder lays flat for the most part when fully opened. I recommend laying it on a table when flipping through it, I really don't trust the floppy cover and the sharp bits are constantly in the back of my mind. I think it would be a good idea to leave 2 inner seams unwelded, the ones closest to the spine, that way we can sandwich a stiff sheet of styrene or something between them, the way the elastic strap is. Or, you know, VaultX could just do it for us to begin with. I made something similar when I was a kid, with cardboard, tape and staples, and that abomination worked great for a few years right up until it finally fell apart. I can tell you for sure just adding a little cardboard would go a long way in improving these binders. If you're going to buy a bunch of these, I recommend storing them upright. The problem with stacking them flat on their backs is that the elastic strap creates a raised pressure point that crosses the entire 4th column of cards. If you accidentally put a bunch of weight on that the cards might get imprinted or hotdogged over time. With a few tweaks, binders like these would be a welcome lightweight way to display a collection, but as is, I only recommend them if you're the only one handling the binder and know what to look out for. The last thing you want to do is give this to a kid only to have them pick it up the wrong way and recreate Misty's Tears. (The English version, you freaks!)

Letteralmente una garanzia. L'album è di qualità ottima, abbastanza rigido e le carte si inseriscono nelle tasche dai lati invece che da sopra e sono comodissime. Senza una sleeve protettiva a volte le carte rischiano di scivolare fuori dalla tasca però.

Ottimo raccoglitore, è il secondo che prendo. Ne ho provati di diversi nel tempo e questo è quello che mi ha convinto di più come qualità generale. Le carte non escono dalle tasche, cosa non scontata, sia che abbiano le sleeve sia senza niente. Una cosa da valutare che questo è il modello con chiusura ad elastico, se uno vuole il massimo di “sicurezza” che niente esca/entri tra le pagine può valutare il modello con chiusura a zip, anch’esso veramente ottimo.

Eignet sich gut um ein Set einer Pokemon Sammelkartenspiele Erweiterung zu sammeln. Ich bin sehr zufrieden mit der Qualität und den Preis dieser Mappen. Besitze bereits mehrere und es wird Zeit, das neue Farben raus kommen. Kann ich nur empfehlen. Allerdings immer daran denken die Karten vorher in eine Hülle zu machen, ansonsten bringt der beste Ordner nichts.

Classeur acheté pour mon master set Pokémon EV08 il a la capacité d'accueillir toutes les cartes + les cartes promo. L'ouverture des pochettes sur le côté permet aux cartes de ne pas glisser. Classeur très quali et fidèle à ce qu'on attend de cette marque.

Cards placed in the places "inside" the pages (close to the fold) bend. The whole binder is flimsy. The elastic that holds the "folder" closed bends into the cards on the outside. If the outside was ridgid, and the pages had more spacing, it'd be perfect.
