Most Effective Method for Vintage Set Builders

All of my 1970s sets are in "Ultra Pro" binders. They seem to hold them well.

Is that a 3 inch binder or something larger?

Just a regular 3". Approximately 800 cards seems to be the cut off where it get too full. My 1980s sets that are 792 and then 132 Traded go into "BCW" binders which are technically 3" but seem to have a little more room.

One quick note, though. If you use Ultra Pro binders try and use the newer version. The difference is in the D clip. On the older versions the break between the two arms occurs AFTER the curve starts. This causes some of the pages in front to creep up and curl. You could damage some of the cards on the first couple pages that way.

The newer folders have the prong that the pages fit onto going straight up and catching there. It holds them much better. I've had to upgrade all of my binders because of this.
