Putting cards in a Card Saver I...

Is there a way to do this without wanting to do horrible things to myself?

Point in case: The Card Saver I’s are explicitly made such that the card won’t move once it’s in there, but this also means that you cannot just slide the card in there (as with a top loader). What I’ve done so far is try to create as much room as possible and then push/wiggle the card in and sometimes taking a light grip on the top edge. Fear not, this has only been attempted on cheap cards, and they didn’t seem to have different any damage. But I can’t put it all the way in there like this, and I’m really worried that I’ll damage something. How do you put the card in there?

Take your index and middle finger and place it at the center back of the card and slide your card + fingers all the way down, while pinching both sides of the cardsaver with your other hand to max space inside. Card will usually bow but that doesnt hurt anything.

I have big ol sausage fingers and have done 10s of thousands of these and sometimes they are a pain but I’ve never hurt a card in the process.

Someone on here uses a ruler or something like that. There was a picture?

Do you push the card all the way down or just in middle of top and bottom?

Very good question.
It’s best not to push it in to the bottom cause it’ll be harder to pull it out. I put it in as close to the top as possible cause there’s no reason not to:)
