RE: size toploader?
I have read quite a lot on the subject lately since im facing the same problem, i don't have any LCS in a 500km perimeter, so i also have to buy online.

The best i could find was this:

1 Regular Card = 20 Point - Use All Standard or Regular Card Holders
3 Regular Cards = 55 Point - Use 55 Point Holders (Also called Action Packed Size or Thick)
4-5 Regular Cards = 70-75 Point - Use 75 Point Holders or Extra Thick Holders
6-8 Regular Cards = 120-130 Point - Use 130 Point Holders (Commonly called Memorabilia Size or Real Thick or 3.5 mm)
9-12 Regular Cards = 180 Point - Use 180 Point Holders (Also called Super Thick)

Also if you really want to be more precise, i found this (thats the method i use now):

1pt = .0254 millimeters

So by using a vernier Caliper to determine how many millimetres thick is your card you can determine how many "PT" it represent after.

BTW, for those who don't know what a Vernier Caliper is, thereit is:

There is also a digital version.
