How do you store your cards?

Either binder or graded cards collectors or both. How do you store your cards? Whether it’s a large quantity or a small one. Curious to hear how other collectors store their collections

In plastic tubs with the hinges off in the most climatically stable rooms in the basement. There they are shielded from sunlight, insects, flooding and the extremes of temperature and humidity.

All my “good stuff” is in my binders in a small closet in my home. All my other extra cards are in etbs in big totes organized and put away. I recently ordered a case for my graded cards. I was worried about theft and stuff but we keep a small circle and insurance was recommended to me so once i got that it really took a lot of the “what if” paranoia away. I keep the clefable prerelease in a small special seperate lock box by itself though. Its really important/sentimental to me so it will be in there forever.
Edit: I also use ultra pro 12 pocket and 9 pocket always zippered, just grew up using them and they do what they are supposed to.

I put my favorite graded card of the week on top of my GPU in my PC.

I put a lot of my other graded cards on top of my shelves. Whatever I plan on selling are just stored in those psa boxes you get from submissions until they are shipped to their new home when they get sold

I store my cards in Ultra-Pro 12 pocket zippered binders. I keep those on the shelf in a cupboard but I would like to get some large containers to keep the binders in. Would love to read how others would recommend storing binders to keep them safe from humidity, etc.

I store my cards by double sleeving, then into a 12-pocket, interchangeable sheet, zipped binder, with my binders then stored on a bookshelf. I have a handful of sealed products that are stored in acrylic boxes, and similarly, my few graded cards are stored in the same way, both of these next to the bookshelves. Between the binders, I have the occasional magazine or guide relating to the respective card game and maybe a figure or two, as well as spacers between sets or series of the games.

I keep all of mine in Bindertek Binders inside a Rhino Trunk with custom dimensions.

Raw is in binders on a shelf so I can thumb through them when I get the urge.

Sealed boxes/packs/promos are in my dresser so I don’t see them and get the urge to open them.

My highest value graded stuff is displayed on my wall on magnetic mounts so I can stare and drool when I’m home and easily take them down and hide them when I leave.

TCG collection: in loads and loads of binders:

(The bottom two drawers are non-TCG stuff I might sell one day; the top drawer is non-TCG stuff I’ll keep - including stuff from Worlds 2022 and Van Gogh products.)

Non-TCG Seviper collection: in a display closet:

Duplicated items: in loads of boxes (which are a complete mess and not worthy of a photo :sweat_smile: ).

Greetz,
