Intercept Shield Folders

Do any other members use them? Clevegreg had one at a February show for 1938-present Jefferson's and it looked nice so I decided to try them out. I received my first one in the mail today, kind of a tester to see how they serve my purpose. I started with the American Eagle Silver Dollar MS album and like it so far. The coins fit quite snugly, display well and the outer box affords extra sturdiness and protection.
The irony in going to albums for me is that I had stuff in Whitman's since way back in the 60's until about 3 years ago, so now I've gone full circle to folders again with something that's a bit more high-tech. When I "unfoldered" I went to Capital hard-plastic 2x2's and a storage box. That was good for protection and storage but it got to the point for me where I had so many individual coins holdered that they were always disorganized and it was a mild inconvienience to view them. And the price for the folders is actually quite competitive when considering the long term storage and protection of the I.S. material. The 2x2's were approximately 75 cents each/$15 for the date run and the folder was $24 with space for coins through 2012.
One thing I haven't seen offered anywhere is something for a type set in album form. Any suggestions on where to look or comments about Intercept Folders, either good or bad? thanks.
