Questions & Answers

Could the cards be flipped over and a permanent marker be used to write on the tabs?

Yes, you can scribble on the tab's backside. Because the plastic is translucent, you'll be able to see the letter written on the other side even if it's backlit. You could use a label maker to print your own labels for the back, or you could use a sticky label and write on it.

Is it possible to make decent holes in these with a standard paper punch to fit the oxford poly card binder?

I believe a standard paper punch would suffice. The cards are a little thicker than regular card stock, but they are not prone to tearing. They appear to be made of plastic. I'm not sure what an oxford poly card binder is, so I can't say for sure. I hope you find this information useful.

According to the package, there are 25 cards in total, ranging from A to Z. What letters are combined to make the letter Z?

All other letters were on separate cards, with the exception of X, Y, and Z, which were all combined on one card. Mc had his own section as well.

What is the maximum number of cards it can hold?

It would be determined by the size of the box in which they are placed. Because each card is distinct from the others, you could use a single 3 X 5 index card or a stack of them to separate each letter. I hope you find this information useful.

AN AMAZON ITEM THAT IS NOT AVAILABLE Is it possible to return it? I guess I've picked up a new skill
3/5

Third-party sellers' return policies are always on my mind. I didn't realize this was a non-returnable item. Because it was purchased from Amazon, it is returnable. This is the first time I've seen this. So, what do I do with alphabetical organizer cards that lack a Q and instead contain two Mc cards? That is to say, they will not be returned. Yes, I can make my own marks on it, but still. It's faulty, and you should be able to return it. What a shambles in terms of quality assurance.

HOLES ARE OBVIOUSLY NOT ALLOWED - This item should not be used with the two-piece set
3/5

Binder has a ring and is made of plastic index cards. I only gave these to three people because they don't have any holes punched in them, so they can't be used in the two-person game. Binder with a ring and index cards. These divider cards were frequently purchased in conjunction with the two-ring index card binder, according to the advertisement. I didn't notice that these divider cards didn't have holes punched in them because I wasn't paying attention. The fact that these dividers are frequently purchased with the two-ring index card binder is a little suspect. You can't punch holes in these thick plastic divider cards with a handheld hole punch because they're too thick. I tried, but the punch as a whole couldn't break through the thick plastic. Why would anyone want to buy divider cards without holes punched in them? Other customers may have been misled by the "frequently purchased together" marketing. Hopefully, you will not be taken in by deception. These are great if you just need some sturdy, alphabetized divider cards to use with your index cards in a box. Don't let the fact that they fit in a two-ring index card binder fool you.

They're perfect for what I'm looking for
4/5

Even in office supply stores like Office Max and Staples, these items are impossible to come by! I went to a lot of different stores and couldn't find what I was looking for. a physical location as well as an online presence - before finally stumbling across them on Amazon. They're made of flexible plastic that's thick enough to withstand a lot of use, and they're far more durable than the paper versions with plastic laminated tabs. The letters are printed in silver on the tabs, and they're difficult to read in low light unless the tab is tilted in such a way that the light catches them. I believe that the letters would have been easier to read if they had been printed in white or a more light-reflective silver paint. The various colors, which are a little darker in person, appeal to me. If you need these to fit into a ringed folder, roladex, or card file with rings or raised tracks for the cards to sit on, don't order them. These cards have a solid bottom, but you could punch holes in them one at a time if necessary. They fit perfectly into a 3"x5" card box, which is where I'm storing them as individual coupons. The durability is well worth the extra cost over the paper version.

Kitchen Reorganization – A disaster waiting to happen
5/5

Parts for 3x5 recipe cards are becoming increasingly difficult to come by. My old separators are frayed, and my box is overflowing with items. I've looked everywhere I can think of locally for a new box and dividers but can only find them in 4x6 size; I'm not going to convert (as several salespeople suggested) because I have far too many (40 years worth) and it would take an eternity to re-assemble them. they should be written Amazon has saved the day yet again! Because these are made of plastic rather than paper, I expect them to last the rest of my life. When my daughter moved out on her own, I started her a recipe "file" in a mini 3-ring binder. a three-ring binder containing the majority of her favorite recipes Even back then, I couldn't find anything except blank cards in 3x5, so I thought the book was cool until I realized how time-consuming handwriting them is. After I'm gone, I'm guessing she'll go through my recipes and transfer the ones she wants to keep into her book, or more likely, digitally store them, while the rest will be thrown out. However, for the time being, these are satisfactory, and they would be even better if I could find a longer box!.

It's beautiful and colorful, but it's missing the W
4/5

The dividers are of excellent quality and come in beautiful colors, but as I began to fill my file box, I noticed something strange - Instead of a W, the card for W had an M (so I received two Ms). It's a minor annoyance that I can overlook, but I'd prefer a W. However, I have a slight OCD when it comes to these matters.

Now I'm able to locate what I'm looking for
5/5

It could be the monitor on my computer, or it could be my expectations. However, the cards I received were not nearly as vibrant and colorful as the ones pictured. Actually, the colors are a little flat and lack personality, but they do the job they're supposed to do, and they appear to be of good enough quality to last for many years. Despite this, I still give these cards a five-star rating because they are sturdy plastic standard A B C divider cards, which is exactly what I was looking for. I'll let you know if the tabs start to fall off. br>I'm using these to replace 35-year-old manila card stock dividers that had lost their will to live a long time ago in my recipe card file. br>While I've never had a problem finding "Aunt Clara's Easter Cake," it's nice to be able to see the "E" for "Edith Guise's Ginger Cookie," the "G" for "Good and Creamy Icing," or the "M" for "Mejun's Favorite Squid" when I'm looking for them. br>My filing system is a little out of the ordinary, but I know what I'm looking for when I pull out my recipe card box, and now, thanks to these tough little Oxford Poly A - I can now easily find exactly what I'm looking for thanks to the Z, 3' x 5' Card Guides. All I have to do now is begin re-writing the script. I'm transferring some of my old recipes to new, better cards. But that's for a different review.

Colors are fantastic - They're thick and heavy, so you know they'll last a long time! Because you must see the entire picture, you must cut and paste: Please don't judge me when I tell you why I bought these yellow and green cards
5/5

Years ago, I created a file to keep track of my passcodes; this way, if one changes, you can simply white it out and replace it with the new information. That worked so well that when I ordered two books that I already owned but forgot about, I set up file box 2 to keep track of all my books. Fast forward a little more time, and music cds and shows, as well as movie dvds/Blue-ray discs, will be available. Ray. You can probably tell I'm a little OCD, but I like to know where everything is at all times. I was planning to put CDs on one color and DVDs on the other, but I couldn't find a good price on the file in another color, so everything will be in one. I told you not to pass judgment, didn't I? 😊.
