Just because it is too easy.

All penny sleeved? For base cards? That's impressive

Dwade3HeatC · 03-01-2014, 02:19 PM

I'd like to know more!

You penny sleve every base card?! Must be a lot of work

jake312 · 03-01-2014, 07:49 PM

I have them in set boxes by year and shoe boxes are easy and neat!

Homerun · 03-01-2014, 07:53 PM

I put all mine in penny sleeves, then toploaders.

Ive contemplated doing this with extras, but adding toploaders

Doesnt seem like a good idea

Reverse alphanumeric ordering (Dewey Decimal System for tiebreakers). Penny sleeves inside 4-screw screwdowns. All in matching Muppets lunchboxes.

I keep mine in water

JBird · 03-01-2014, 11:14 PM

i put them back in a pack after scribbling on one, reseal it and sell it as a "hot pack" on eBay.

I kid, I kid

Bryan407 · 03-02-2014, 12:22 AM

I make boxes out of wood. I measure the top loader or card and build a custom wood box around them.

For example, and yes I have lots.

I built my house out of base cards so technically the base cards store me instead of me storing them.

This made me laugh. Yeah, I stopped keeping base cards. Takes up too much room. I know people donate them, but i have been selling them in about 2000 card lots.

This hate for base cards still intrigues me. There are still set collectors out there like me.

sonnyday · 03-02-2014, 08:17 PM

Usually wipe my ass with them then mail them back to the card manufacturers so they can include in future buyback products.

Yeah like he said. In all seriousness though I create sets out of mine and put the ones that I'm close to completing in binders. The rest go in boxes.

Bob Loblaw · 03-02-2014, 08:28 PM

I literally just threw out 20k.

This is what I do as well. I have to have a specific number of cards from a set before I begin putting them in pages

Doublexthebeast · 03-02-2014, 08:59 PM

I get a case or two worth built up and list them on Ebay in a big lot. Put them in a flat rate box and get rid of that crap. Buyers get a great deal on a lot of freshly pulled cards and I get them out of my house.

num1jrfan · 03-03-2014, 03:47 AM

i keep mine in either trash bags. i kidd i kidd.
