Hey guys just wondering what everyone uses for storage on their graded cards. Right now I just use the PSA boxes inside another box ( i know) I’m looking at getting something designed just for graded cards for a little more protection, maybe wood or a harder material.
I’ve surely posted this in some other topic before but whatever. It’s a bit hefty but at least protects the cards very well, 4 rows hold up to ~150 cards depending how much foam you want to remove.
I haven’t noticed any chances with my cards, bought same SKB case about year ago. Ofc some cards rattle inside psa cases but that’s whole different problem.
I will not be taking the risk… If and when I get one of these ill be storing them flat on eachother because it would still work good that way in these boxes, but Ill only be putting 5 stacked on each toher… anymore and my paranoia will seep in that they will get pressure, and impressions will happen. lol. So ill have to buy like a couple of these, and shipping to aus is like 100AUD
ILL DO IT WHEN SYUJU17 STOPS BEING AN ASS, AND WHEN I AQUIRE THE THINGS.
If storing graded cards vertically was actual problem wouldn’t there be options besides “shoe boxes”, graded card cases etc. which are designated to store holders in standing position?
I’d love to hear opinion of experienced collectors about this debate. @smpratte@garyis2000
It’s rather well-known issue sometimes cards move inside cases after grading. I’ve sent ~100 cards and roughly 1/5 of them have come back as “rattlers”.
Only thing that comes in my mind are extremely minor differences between card sizes, if someone has better explanation I’m all ears.
Even maracas is fine. I distinctly recall seeing a video once where someone aggressively shook a rattling case a thousand times, or something to that effect, and there was no difference in the card at the end.
I’ve received PSA graded cards form other people, and they come in a sleeve that folds over and sticks down. What are these marketed as? I’m about ready to pack all my things away.
