Default How do you store/display your sets

I rotate them out of my bolted down fireproof safe. Best of both worlds. On a day when I don't expect to leave house or have folks over I allow the big ones to go in (33 Ruth and gehrigs). But in general try to keep it under $1000 on wall at any given time. I am obviously a bit paranoid. So I even went the extra distance and mounted it to be earthquake proof. Even put an inflatable box filler in my safe for same reason (keep the stacks from ever falling).

I had previously stashed them all in my safe round the clock but had the reckoning that I was collecting something I rarely interacted with. Which seemed foolish . Not that anything about collecting is logical haha
