I recall once going to a dealer stand at a coin show where this "solvent transfer effect" was so bad, and the 2x2s in their stockbooks had become so sticky, that the dealer handed me a dud credit card and a screwdriver so I could prise the coins free of the album. It's not a way to impress customers.
AND I full well know that feeling. I too have attempted to pry out a coin from some of those sheets and they were as if glued in place. When a dealer has to hand you tools to get a coin out, you have to wonder just what is happening to that coin. And what if you slip and it runs accross the face of the coin? At one coin show a dealer had to cut the coin out with a knife.
I know there are many manufacturers of those sheets and the ones I have used so far are OK, but I still wonder about the future.
