MJ Roop: Binder or Box?

ajw

I'm thinking about buying a binder or storage box from MJ Roop to hold my quickly growing Willie Mays collection. For those that have used their products, would you recommend a binder with PSA slab pages or would you recommend a storage box? I'd like the cards to be nicely preserved and presentable, but I'm unsure of how the slabs in pages will present.

Any suggestions?

The binders can only hold 6 or 7 of the PSA page sheets, so depending on your collection, you will have to decided which way to go.

What I've done is to use both. For my football and baseball sets, I have taken my favorites and put them in binders, and put the rest in the boxes. Just depends on the size of your collection. If you have 24-28 cards, go the binder so they can be shown....if more, I'd do a combo.

I agree with Ax. I have two archiver binders and one wooden presentation box. The deal right now at mjroop with 20% off and free shipping for the archiver binders are pretty sweet. oh and remember if u have any bgs stuff you would need bgs specific sheets(which mj roop sells too). Hey ajw, are ya from the bay area? Just curious with you collecting will the thrill and all.

I have four of the Archiver's boxes. They work great for me.

The Roop boxes are quite nice - the sets I am working on are too large for binders anyway. Not to mention, the binder with many pages in it would seem to be clumsy and heavy. Just my opinion, but I like the boxes better.

Nope. I'm actually from Wisconsin and now New York City. I became a Will Clark fan back in 1986/87 and have been an absolutely diehard Giants fan since the 1989 season. I just branched out into my Willie Mays collection and I'm hooked.

cool another giants fan. man its painful to watch them this year. Dropping the last two games to the rockies was just plain pathetic. I guess us folks in the bay area were so spoiled by winning teams the past few years that this year is a bit of a shock. First niners in the dumps and now the giants...argh...at least the A's aren't doing too badly this year.

I am box guy on everything, so I am bias. The only cards I have in a binder these days are promos.

I have used the pages and the wood boxes. I no longer own any pages, as I didn't like the appearance, the bulkyness, and the difficulty to use them. The wooden boxes are FIRST CLASS STUFF!!! They hold more cards, appearance is great, and they are functional------- they'll hold 152 PSA slabs each even with the 'skinney' sleeves on them.. Good luck- Tony

What are the skinny sleeves? Are you referring to the graded card bags that come 100 to a pack? I have wanted to get a wooden box, but I never knew if the slots were wide enough to hold slabs inside the graded plastic sleeves. I have a mixture of PSA, BGS, SGC and GAI. Any help would be appreciated.

Rman444-

Thank you for your interest in M.J. Roops products. Everyone here seems to be doing a great job directing you with our products, as usual. I would like to mention that our Wooden Preservation Cases, Archiver Card Box, and Archiver Trays do not have "slots" as do the PSA plastic boxes. This way you can mix your PSA, BGS, SGC, and GAI cards with or without your graded sleeves (which we also sell but do not yet have on the website) and not have any problem. The trays for all of these items (4 Archiver Trays w/o individual lids in Archiver Box and Wooden Preservation Case) are the same size and were designed wide enough to fit your SGC cards as well as all others.

The Wooden Preservation Cases have been a huge hit with our PSA collectors and they are going out the door as fast as we can make them. Please let me know if I may be of further assistance. Kris - sales@mjroop.com.

Everyone else- Thank you for your continued support.
