Hello all.

This is definitely not an end of the world issue but I am having trouble keeping the rows up in 3 row/monster boxes I have. They are constantly sliding down. I also want to keep chrome/refractor cards tight so that they don't curl. So far I have used legos and toploaders but it's not really helping. I've seen people put duct tape down at the bottom but I would be worried about the cards getting some surface issues with the friction and potential rough grooves in the tape.

Does anyone have any suggestions on something I could try? Or is there a product I can buy that would help solve that.

I use decks of playing cards sometimes to prop up rows of cards, they have enough weight to not slide around too much. Otherwise I know BCW makes foam pads designed to use as fillers in storage boxes, haven't used 'em myself but they look like they'd do what you want.

I have a wooden box with the bottom lined with felt fabric. Maybe some type of thin fabric could work for you if it isn't too rough. You'd have to glue it in so it doesn't bunch up.

Not sure about the curling issue. Best thing might be to find a way to lay them flat to let gravity help you.

I keep the empty top loader boxes and just stack them in partially empty rows, this keeps the cards upright. Unfortunately, they don't have enough weight to wedge your chrome cards.

Another suggestion for three rows is to put an empty 400/600 count white box on its side to fill space

I use pieces of foam cut slightly larger than the box to hold the cards in place.

This is what I do for monster boxes in progress. They fit nicely into the row.
