Putting cards in sleeves and toploaders

[Matt11111]

So last night, an order of 500 sleeves came in, and my mom had me put all my Pokemon and baseball cards in them (yes, even the commons and uncommons). So I sleeved a little under 200 cards last night. While she wasn't home today, I took a majority of cards out of the sleeves, but left the reverses, holos, ultra rares, and a couple of my favorite Pokemon in sleeves. Although I'll probably have to put them back into sleeves later. My mom had me order toploaders for the cards as well, and she'll probably want me to put as many cards as possible in sleeves and toploaders.

I'm making this thread to ask you guys, which cards you put in sleeves and which ones you put in toploaders. Sure, my mom wants me to keep all my cards protected, but some of them are clearly already in bad condition, so there's no point in putting them into sleeves. I want to make the sleeves last as long as possible, and since I'm new to collecting Pokemon cards, I wanted to know what your standards are for sleeving cards.

Thanks. :]

I tend to sleeve my reverses, holos, ex/gxs, and full arts mainly. I put the cards that have more value into top loaders. The rest I put in a portfolio.

I would recommend a portfolio for commons and uncommons and keeping one of each in there. ^^ @Matt11111

I would like more info on your goal. Are you collecting or just accumulating cards?

I only sleeve my decks, but I keep GX/Break/EX cards in a deck box.

I wouldn't bother any card that is common or uncommon, unless it's a promo, since the re-sale is pennies st most. Protect any rare cards, promotional copies, misprints, anything that could have resale value.
