An Orange PCGS Box!
I've been wanting one of these for a while- no particular reason.
(Seller's photo)
On to looking for the mint green; gold and silver ones. . .

I'd have never thought I'd be wanting to collect PCGS memorabilia, yet here I am (foolishly doing so?).

    I just checked eBay, and there is one available, yet the cost is a bit too high for my taste.
    If anyone has the other boxes, including the older green one, please PM me!

    He's yanking your chain and doing a good job of it. The joke is that with the CAC obsession and a previous reply about "removing stickers" that the PCGS storage boxes will need a sticker. :D

    Ahhh, that did fly over my head!

    me too as i thought the pcgs sticker that comes with the boxes is the one being referenced.

    i can't say it is foolish to collect pcgs memorabilia, especially being a numismatists. now for the average collector to go spend hundreds/thousands, that is probably foolish. keeping it under $100-200 i think will not send you to the loony bin! ;)

    I love the RED box, nere have seen one before. Looks real nice. I've the blue and black boxes. The only drawback is the are not tall enough for the NGC slabs. I found some red and blue 10 count boxes that hold both PCGS & NGC. Also, the smaller boxes are easier to put in the small spaces where the bigger boxes won't.

    Nice.
    Don't have the orange one but I got two of the golden boxes for free at Baltimore show earlier this month while having on site grading done and last year got the green one for free after the 2021 "Early find" submission grading.
    Have always had the black ones from before.
    Got the silver ones from NGC and cardboard boxes from ANACS.

    The orange one is lacking from my agglomeration of PCGS boxes. The sellers are mighty proud of them.
