Storage
How/where do you guys store your cards? I always just put mine in sleeves and then into pages but I have feeling high-end cards should be put into hard cases always. But then where do you put them? Do you have anyway to display them?
Any hints/tips/talk about storing your cards would be greatly appreciated!

I've got 3 big 5000ct boxes - 1 for Price & Gorges, 1 for other Habs & PC stuff, and 1 for traders. All are in sleeves & loaders, some one touches for the big guns.
Habs fan and collector! Current PC's: Nick Suzuki, Cole Caufield, and Lane Hutson...., and of course...

I store my Spezza PC in a 500 ct box... every card has a brand new toploader, penny sleeve and team bag.... I also have a 5000 ct box filled with traders... every trader (insert/rc) has a penny sleeve and the GU and AU traders have a penny sleeve and a toploader

I have my cards all in penny sleeves, toploaders, team bags, and one touch cases with team bags for the valuable ones.
I store my valuables in a glass trophy case I purchased from Ikea.

Just curious, how many of you guys actually put all of your cards into team bags inside your boxes? I have all of my stuff in newsleeves, loaders and one touches, but I don't have any of my stuff in a team bag, except for the stuff I'm listing or planning to trade/sell and ship out soon.
Is the team bag necessary? Is it just to make it look even nicer or do people actually use them to ensure they stay clean and dust-free?

I have everything inside of team bags. Keeps the dust out and keeps the holders from getting scratched up.

Most of my PC is in binders, nicer stuff in pennysleeves and toploaders, one touch or screwdowns and on display in a china cabinet. Traders are in pennysleeves in a 5000 ct box.

My base are stored in year order and alphabetized in 9-card pocket sleeves.
Anything under a print run of /100 in sleeve and toploader.
Anything under a print run of /25 in a one touch case.
Sometimes a card with a high value that run outside of those lines above will automatically be put in a toploader or one touch.

Everything over 15 $ or with low print run is in a penny sleeve and top loader/screw holder.
Everything else is in a binder (or in a pile on my desk, waiting to be put in a binder...)
My traders all lies in peeny sleeves, those with 10 $ BV or more are in top loader.I collect the following:
- Vintage (Stars and RC)
- 2010-11 ITG Decades (Auto, GU, bases)
- Stars from the 1980s (in modern sets)
- Montreal Canadians Legends (bases, inserts, parallels, #, RC, Auto, GU)
- Montreal Canadiens actual players (inserts, parallels, #, RC, Auto, GU)
