The fact that they are in safety deposit boxes is due to my fear of keeping them "viewable". It is unfortunate but when a card or collectible reaches a certain value then I think it needs some type of protection.
I have thousands of collectibles in my reach that are not considered valuable enough to lose.
We all collect because we LOVE it I hope. Once things get valuable there is an obvious choice we all need to make. Keep it under the bed or get it to a bank or get it to the Vault (in the future). I'm not happy that I can't view my cards every day but I am at peace knowing where they are for viewing once a week!
Peace, Mike

If the bank is a good compromise, why send to a remote site where you presumably won't be able to view them at all?
