I've been using Yanoman Gunmetal Sleeves forever now...but has anyone tried these "Official Ultra-Pro" sleeves?

http://sales.starcitygames.com/carddisplay.php?product=44520

I get the feeling I should just stick with the product I know...

I played a person who was using these. I believe he called them "just terrible".

I liked how they felt, but they tended to mark under heavy use, so I wouldn't recommend them.

They tear into pieces under any amount of regular use.  I had a friend who went through 20 extra sleeves in a 7 round event.

How are the Yanoman 75ct sleeves?

I've read they aren't on par with the older 100ct packs but how do they stack up against other sleeves?

The Yanoman 75ct sleeves aren't bad...but they don't quite feel the same as the old 100ct packs. I have yet to find better sleeves...but I'm open to suggestions. Once upon a time I used Dragon Sleeves...but I felt they marked up fast and fell apart too quickly. Ultra pro sleeves have been the bane of my existence for longer than I can remember.

clickie!

Has anyone tried these before?  Even if they are shite, can you complain about 750 sleeves for $20?

I would have to recomend players choice/KMC(same thing) in the glossy.  I don't care for the KMC mat-black or blue, they don't shuffle well.

For casual play, I like dragons because they shuffle nice, but they do mark up a lot so maybe not the best for touney play.
