PSA Card Box Suggestions
 
Hey guys -

Was wondering if anyone had some good suggestions on best ways to keep cards in a PSA case. I like to keep my PSA cards in team bags, so as not to scratch the holder, but am looking at a nice box to keep the cards in (currently they are just stacked up). Any recommendations or pictures of how you keep your PSA cards would help.

Thank you

Thanks guys... how well do these work when you have graded cards in team bags?

if you are referring to these, they work just fine and make the fit even better w/ less sliding, imo.

A 7.62mm surplus ammo case holds graded cards perfectly. I find this to be a convenient way to store and carry graded cards I have purchased. If the rubber gasket at the top of the case is in good condition, the case also keeps the cards in a consistent moisture-stable environment and adds a good level of protection against the elements when transporting.

I would paint each case in the appropriate team colors - but I am not that much of a geek yet. :)

if ya go w/ the super vaults, here's what i do for organization and easy location...

scan the card
size it down to fit in a reg card saver
print out on a thick stock paper
cut, insert and glue the thing to the front of the box.

like most i assume, only takes a split sec to spot the image and lot easier than having to go thru and read what's on each box....
even if it is in my own writing or typed out.

Zach,

Since I have no knowledge whatsoever regarding firearms, I have no idea what a 7.62mm surplus ammo case looks like. Is it made out of cardboard? Can you post some photos? Also, since gun stores are quite rare in my neck of the woods, where would one get this type of box?

Thanks.

UPDATE 02/09/16: I've answered my own question. There's a bunch of these for sale on eBay & they appear to be made of metal & quite sturdy. However they don't rate very high in eye-appeal (quite ugly - to be frank).
