Storage Boxes For Graded Packs

I have begun to accumulate many first-generation GAI and many PSA graded packs. I am trying to come up with a good way to store them. For those who also collect these, are there storage boxes made specifically for them, besides the suitcase kind? How does everyone else store theirs?

    I store them in the brown boxes that PSA packs them in

    Look for MJ Roop boxes (google link). Every once in a while, a board member (name escapes me) will build custom wooden boxes for +/- $75.

    I don't know Tim, there might be something to this. We definitely have our share of Pampers' boxes at the jmaciu household!!

    David K (70toppsfan) sells a really nice high-end one. I believe these are from Matt Miller's prototype..

    That's correct about Miller's cases which Dave now sells. These cases are absolutely fantastic for all graded cards and packs.

    I got 24 graded cello packs to fit nicely in the diaper box. Folds up and they stack.

    And there's a built-in security feature, too-- what thief is going to cart away a box of diapers? ? LOL!

    Thanks for the mention guys, I believe the OP was looking for non-suitcase sized storage. The smallest we currently have for graded
    cards is 225-240 PSA sized graded cards, and about 90-96 PSA graded packs (slightly lower capacities with other TPG slabs due to
    differing slab thickness).

    If there were enough interest we could look into putting together a smaller-sized case for slabbed cards (with slightly less foam under the slabs
    so that everything fits). However, there would need to be at least 1-2 dozen units of interest level in order to justify the investment in the manufacturing
    tools necessary for it.

    As for the graded packs, their slabs are a bit taller than card slabs. I don't know if there is a smaller case that has enough depth to accomodate
    the pack slabs. I will look into it.

    In the meantime, if anyone has interest in a smaller size please PM me and I'll see if there is enough demand to justify the investment in the
    manufacturing tools.

    Tony, does your wife know that you put your graded cello packs in there? I can picture it now, "Hey Honey, where is that Pampers box." "Oh, I tossed it out with the rest of the recycles."
    "The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
    But I have promises to keep,
    And miles to go before I sleep,
    And miles to go before I sleep."

    Mike,

    That would be bad. She knows where everything is. Its the cost part that she may not be up to speed on.image
