i finally received my crowdfunded copy of Earthborne Rangers, which due to its environmentally friendly goal, made all their cards without the plastic core cards usually have in order to spare the environment. they’re all floppy and fragile, so they definitely need sleeves. only… there’s around 1300 cards.

buying cheap card sleeves from china would run me around €16 plus import duty, but all the ones i can find in local stores are like €5 for 100… that’s a lot of money. and i don’t even know where those are produced.

so, any recommendations on where to get sleeves? preferably with some rigidity if that’s a thing that exists? i think the cards are like 88x63mm.

Edit:

Turns out Arcane Tinmen, from Denmark, make some of their sleeves in-house! so Dragonshield sleeves are indeed european, except the really cheap ones.

    that’s very fair. thanks for soothing my mind a bit on the issue.

    …now i just have to get six more packs to cover all the cards. and the box is already starting to bulge a bit.

      You could look into 3D-printing a new box or getting a wooden box off Etsy or something if you find the cards not fitting anymore. If you find one in the size you need

        yeah i am doing that, since the sleeved cards take so much space that the other components don’t fit anymore. problem is i feel like i’ve spent too buch money ot this already. the game with expansions and wood upgrades was already like €280.
