How do you store your graded cards?

While im thinking about buying a protective box for my most valuable ones, i like having them displayed on the shelf at this time…

Shelf is much bigger but that sumarizes how they are displayed at this time.

Your display looks amazing! Have you ever been worried that it might draw too much attention in the event of burglary?

i live in the middle of nowhere with an urban zone of around 15K people, barely no one knows about Pokemon and whenever someone visits my house and see my man cave they can’t believe i still have ‘‘pokemon toys’’.

Room is most of the times locked and i hold the key, i know i do have a serious amount of value inside but to be honest i doubt someone around me would really care about stealing them. (rural zone of Argentina)

I used to keep them in cardboard boxes but my collection has outgrown most of those boxes so now I just have them in piles on a bookshelf… Not the greatest way of storage, I know, but at least there’s enough space. For now…

Time to stock up on BCW white boxes. The 3200 card ones are only $7 from the LGS here.

Edit: or do graded cards sit way too high in the BCW boxes?

ETBs would likely work well.

I’ve got a couple ETBs I use for my cards that aren’t worth as much and a ryobi (I think), foam padded tool box.

Thanks for the context. Rural Argentina sounds like a safe place to keep to collection .

Also using the same one here. However I just bought LionGood’s V2 storage container, the one with foam, since I ran out of space and I wanted something slightly better.

I was thinking of getting that one. How do you like it so far?

I just got the box yesterday and so far it looks nice, definitely better than V1.

The width of the rows for the cards are the same as V1 but the material is obviously different. Due to the material difference, I like that the cards don’t slide as easily when I don’t fill the row to the brim and it makes less of a noise when they do slide and the cards fall forward.

Each row holds almost 1.5x times more cards than V1.

And compared to V1, which leaves about 3/8th of an inch from the top of the card to the top of the box, V2 has 2/8th of the card going into the foam at the top which gives it a snug fit when you close the box.

Well I’m in the process of getting all of my stuff organised and properly catalogued after moving, so the PSA stuff is just kind of… around.

I do also have a safe which will be in use once I bother to order some silica packets.

I approve that CTR Nitro Fueled box as well

My collection is not very large yet. I mainly collect Charizard cards and the full Gengar line so Gastly and Haunter as well! These are normally in a safe.

I am sure you can guess what is in each one.

Love that Gengar sticker!

I use the same box, as many. Serves its purpose well.

I also have a small display case. I rotate cards out all the time, depending on my mood.

What box is that? Any idea where I can pick one up from?

Look up “liongoods” (dont forget the ‘s’) in Ebay.

These are super sick! I love these! I only wish I had A single PSA Graded card. Lol. I have SO many I want / need to send off and want to get graded but don’t have any cash do any sort of grading at the moment

@dbmoney10, @electrodude, @shoe,

Looks like these storage boxes fit the PSA slabs perfectly! Question: Do they also fit ultra pro/card saver’s? I have some cards within sets graded and some not so if I went with a box like this it would be slabs and savers combined. Looks like it would be close fit for the card savers. Do they fit within the width like the PSA slabs?

Thanks for sharing!

Do card savers fit into this the same way? Looks like it would be tight squeeze for them.

Does anyone know if the Ultra Pro Pro Binder (4 Pocket) fits PSA cards in it?

Here’s a picture for reference. Toploaders will fit with space to spare and Card Saver 1s will fit perfectly.
