Posted By: <b>David Williams</b><p>LOL.<br /><br />Yeah, I've got most of my cards and stuff either displayed in my office at work (the easy to replace stuff and less valuable stuff), or in an old library card file cabinet at home.<br /><br />I guess if I had a lot of cards worth hundreds or thousands each, I'd stick them in a bank vault, or hide them real well in my house.<br /><br />Which brings up another question, how do most of you display your cards/memorabilia/etc...?<br /><br />Or is it all locked up?
