Cracking Holders

I know it's come up before, but I just wanted to see what some of the methods were of cracking cards from other companies holders for submission. I had planned on doing a crossover, but now I think I am just going to go with a straight submission. Any thoughts?

  • Crack off one of the ends with either a wire cutter or a hammer stick a screw driver in the hole twist then move screw driver around outside of holder this method has worked for me on literally hundreds of cards.image

    I live on the 7th floor so it is no problem for me. Open the window, aim for the sidewalk and release. Take the elavator and go get your card, I usually pick up the pieces of the case too, just to make sure I am not littering. If this dosn't work I always use the ole "Goodfellas" method with my bat.

    Just Kidding, what Glynparson said is the easiest way. You can crack PSA and SGC with a pocket knife if its an on the spot job and you have no ther tools available. BGS can be done with a pocket knife but you may end up with a 8.5 on your fingers grade.

    OK I said previously I was going to try this. I have a Dremel, some "slabbed" cards and a video camera. Today after work I will operate on a Lebron James card encapsulated in an FGS holder.

    STAY TUNED!
