Does anyone else see a box, tray, basket, etc. in a store and think "that would be good for storing cards"?
I saw these in Bed Bath & Beyond yesterday. Both models are sturdy and are a bit over 3.5 inches wide, so graded cards would fit nicely.

What else have you found that works?

The 400 ct and 750 ct boxes work very well for me. I'm sure others use those as well. I just save them when someone ships cards in them. Joes Vintage always seemed to ship in 400 ct boxes, which I loved.

Additionally, I bought 2 cases of Card Saver 1s, and each pack of 200 come in boxes that are big enough to display two SGC cards side by side.

What? Nobody stores their cards in the attic anymore. :D

I don't do it for graded cards, but if you take a rubberband and wrap it around a stack of cards enough times so that it dents the top and bottom cards of the stack, they store well.:eek:

I'm always on the lookout when I'm with the wife at Pier 1, Ikea, etc. What else are we supposed to do when they drag us to those places? I found this at Target for $10. Pretty basic but it has fold outs so you can customize it to hold Graded, Tobacco and Regular Top-Loaders. It fits my meager pre-war collection just fine for now.

These really catch my eye, make for safe storage, and easy transportation...I am going to take the plunge and purchase a small case for now...Model 200

I used a shoe box for a while. I finally tossed the box tonight though and moved them to a fire safe.
