How do you store your unopened Wax packs?

How do you store your unopened Wax packs? I currently keep them in a 550 ct. card box which they fit pretty snug. I am just kind of concerned about moisture and humidity over the years damaging the gum and ruining the cards. Is there a better way to store your unopened packs?

    In a PSA holderimage

    On my cheaper wax packs, I just use team set bags. They work great.

    lol!! I used to be the same way. Now I try to buy 1 extra pack everytime I order some. It sometimes kills me not to open a few.

    I use an over sized penny sleeve, large stock top loader, and team bag.

    I didn't know they made top loaders and penny sleeves that big. I will deffinetly look into that.

    Same here but with a top loader in back of the wax pack so when handling you don't touch the pack and accidentally pop the seal

    I used to use team bags, two top loaders, and a graded card bag . That just got anoying to store for some reason.

    Look for 180 pt top loaders and larger.

    For any packs that I have not already specifically cataloged (i.e. players showing on cello packs), I keep the packs in their original boxes inside plastic storage bins. For any that I have taken out of their original boxes, I do similar to what you use to do. Pack in a Team Bag and put that inside a Graded Card Bag with a single toploader (to protect the back seal). Doing this allows me to label the packs for cataloging as well as having it ready with no additional preparation to send to PSA for grading.

    The only way I can keep them unopenned is in a PSA holder (to much work to get it out)
