New storage question

I am in need of suggestions on how store cards in semi-rigid holders. I am looking for something that provides easy access and the ability to move cards easily as the cards will be sorted alphabetically by player name. Thanks.

but if I'm on the right track, let me suggest "shoebox" style boxes that are designed to hold cards in holders. They are like the traditional "monster" 5,000-ct boxes and their kin, but are a little taller and wider, and are available with 2 or 3 rows. I also store most of my vintage singles in semi-rigid holders and need a way to continue sorting--it has worked great for me. I am able to get them at my neighborhood card store, though that's the only thing they're good for.

I generally put most cards in CardSaver I's and store then in either a one-row Vault box or a two or three-row, oversized Shoebox. The best place I've found for ordering such supplies is Cardboard Gold (800-366-1425). For orders under $250, they have a wholesale web store: www.cardboardgold.com

you can get Mylar (acid-free, acid protective, no softeners-archival, in fact)) sheaths of all sizes from Mark Macrae, and archival sheets to hold the Mylar sheaths at Subway Stamp Shop, 1-800-221-9960, ask for Lighthouse Vario Stockpages, 2-pocket, four (to a side) pocket--etc. black or clear centered, 3 and 4 holes, then all you need is a three ring binder, which you can get from them, or your loocal dimestore.

I only use those semi-soft or hard holders if I'm mailing or transporting something.

Good to hear they are making boxes with rows that can handle cards in holders. When I had my game and comic store, we sold 'pizza boxes' that had 5-6 for holding stand 2.5x3.5 cards, but not cards in holders.

I think I am going to switch tot he larger size Card Saver1, although I think the large size r-series cards are going to prove to be a problem and my need to be stored seperately.
