Glossary Term Paper stock - Generally, the thicker the paper that the cards are printed on, the more expensive the product is for collectors to purchase. Paper stock ranges are graded by points of thickness with most card companies using between 12-point up to 24-point stock. Sometimes, multiple sheets are laminated together to create thicker cards and a more premium feel.
