Extracting a card from a Screw down holder

So I won a card on eBay and it arrived today in one of those 1 scree plastic cages. The card seems to be stuck to the bottom pice of plastic (the top plastic comes right off). What's the safest was to get the card off of the bottom side?

Put it in your freezer for a little while. I know this works with new shiny cards that get stuck together.

If it's grooved, a tap on the back usually does the trick. If it's really stuck, I keep some really thin cardstock junk cards around to 'pry' it out.

Freeze it in a ziplock bag. You're welcome

Matt, I've had success removing stuck cards from screwdowns after leaving them in the freezer overnight. Just put it in a ziplock bag to keep the moisture out.
