Dome box on ebay, multiple color choices, work well for all companies' standard slabs.

These are nice for PSA.

I've been using these types for over a decade.
I brought a T3 slab into Staples and found a box that fits perfectly
Something like this...

Why not a shoe box?

After all, that seems to be where most the best treasures resided for the first 100+ years.

I use these Really Useful Boxes which are available at Staples, Michaels, Loomis and on Amazon for general storage purposes:



I refuse of course to have anything to do with cards encapsulated in little plastic coffins but I'm sure the Really Useful Boxes would be ideal for storing them s well. Colour coding is a good way to sort collectibles.

Thanks Jay, I may consider that. As of now, I am leaning towards a BCW comic box. They will hold them nicely as well

I made this for all my slabbed cards. More of them in it now, but still plenty of room.

You might be better off not using a container, and just stacking them up.

They’re just so bloody heavy that by the time you get a bunch of them into a container, you might never be able to lift it. Not to mention, the cost to ship your container full of T3s to a Holiday Inn Express would be astronomical…

I had my Turkey Reds in the plastic containers I showed earlier
They held about 45-50 & weighed maybe 20 pounds
Not all that heavy, but you shouldn't use the handle to lift them

Thanks, guys! I’m in Seattle. I’ve done a few “card catalogs” for collectors in the area.

They look great and instantly remind me of Dewey Decimal!

After the recent fires, I’ve started keeping my good stuff in Pelican cases. Just buy new foam , then cut to fit the slabs. They are (typically) watertight, very rigid, but are portable. Might need a few for 500 cards though.
