I have been asked a few times about card sleeves, so here's some info:
Race for the Galaxy cards need to be sleeved in Card Game sized sleeves. These are available from many, many suppliers as they are the exact same size as Magic the Gathering cards and sleeves.
Dominion cards need to be sleeved in Standard Euro sized sleeves. These are available from Fantasy Flight Games, or from Mayday. I really like the normal (non-premium) Mayday sleeves, also referred to as penny sleeves, which are the cheapest, thinnest sleeves they have that come 100 per pack. Using these sleeves, all your Dominion cards will fit back in the original box (other sleeves will make the stacks of cards too thick to fit!) and they also will keep decks relatively easy to shufffle. Dominion has 500 cards, so you'll need 5 packs of 100.
These days, you can find sleeves that are only transparant on one side: great choice if you want to sleeve an older game where the cards already have some wear. You won't be able to tell what card it is by the wear patterns on it's back anymore.
On www.maydaygames.com/sleeves.pdf you will find a list that has the sleeve sizes for many, many games.
