Ultra PRO Baseball Album Question

How many pages are too many to stack in my binder? I am concerned that too much weight will cause damage to the cards so I am asking the experts. Thanks in advance.

    I've filled mine with 80 or so sheets several times. Never noticed any issues with any of the cards. Just make sure all the sheets can lie flat and I think you should be fine. It's when the sheets start to not lie flat that you are taking a chance (that is, they start to move to the left, closer to the ring).

    Got it. Thanks Esquire. I agree about the sheets lying flat. I have read collectors on these forums suggest that binders should be stored standing up so that cards do not slide up and out of the pockets but I tend to agree that laying them flat is best.

    Just to clarify, I meant only so the sheets can lie flat with the cover closed, not that the binders themselves need to lie flat. I store my binders standing up. No issues for me. It can also help to have a thick plastic divider on the front. It adds some rigidity.

    Thanks for the clarification. I am on my way to the basement to stand up my binders. Don't worry. It isn't damp down there.
