How do you store your PSA Packs

I haven't as yet found a proper box to store PSA graded packs. Can anyone direct me what they use.

Thanks!

    big boys are in a safe depo box. Others were being stored in plastic tubs. Just bought a case from 70toppsfanatic--will let you know how I like it. Due here next week. They look great and hold 100 PSA packs

    I know people like safe depo boxes. But you do realize anything in them cannot be insured. While in general they are safe there can be issues. Ask some people here in Chicago where some bank vaults flooded this spring due to heavy rain. Most vaults are in the basement. Basically anything in those safe depo boxes was lost. Bank doesn't cover anything in boxes as they have no proof what was in them. So while they are generally safe they are not fail proof. I prefer a nice large fire rated safe in my house. That way I can look at my treasures whenever I want too.

    I use those canvas organization bags with the handle on front that you can buy from Lowe's or Home Depot. They perfectly fit two rows of 18-20 packs per row, so they don't get too heavy, and the containers themselves are lightweight but sturdy.

    For now, I use these. Available from PSA.

    Later I might buy one of those custom aluminum cases...

    I only have maybe 10 or so PSA packs that I have collected. Most are in this empty Keurig coffee box that I decorated (no homo):

    A bunch of other packs I am just storing using the Navarro method.

    Items stored at the bank can be insured. They just can't be insured by the bank. Fire safes are nice but when flames get near the safe the temperature inside the safe will rise. Any type of plastic inside the safe will melt and that will be the end of the cards. The extreme heat will also turn the color of paper products not in plastic.

    PM MbMiller25 or 70Toppsfanatic as they are selling graded cases for packs.

  • Thanks for the feedback guys. I like that blue PSA case, didn't think they made those for pack holders. How many can you fit in?

    I currently use the double row card boxes that hold card savers and top loaders. I use the water/fire proof safe method for some of the better ones.

    Ultimately I want to setup a wall display as I work towards my Topps baseball pack run. Haven't figured out how to do that yet.
