How Do You Store Your GU's?

[barrow]

Hey guys,
I've gotten back into the game from a hiatus of almost a decade. I have a problem, I have no idea what to do with the GU cards I'm pulling. From searching this board it seems that a lot of people are putting them in soft sleeves and then throwing it in a top-loader. What do you do about the really thick GU cards? I just pulled a Dwight Howard GU (1/2) from a Bowman Elevation box. There's a piece of his jersey that has a chunk of the jersey material and a chunk of his number, so the card is the thickest thing I've ever laid my eyes on. Unless top-loaders have evolved, I can't imagine this card fitting in one. What product (brand/model) do you use to store what type of cards?

Thanks,
Barrow

yes, they have evolved, lol....they do make toploaders that will fit ANY thickness card these days!! most hobby stores carry them (i dont buy my supplies online so couldn't help ya here)....personally, im not a big fan of GU in toploaders UNLESS it is done properly....there are alot of people that squeeze GU cards into a toploader they dont belong in!! toploaders have evolved quite a bit with the hobby, and come in a vast array of sizes for all kinds of cards....honestly, there isn't a GU card out there that will fit into a regular sized toploader PROPERLY....all my GU cards go into single screw cases (also can be bought according to the cards stock) for storage, and then put in a proper sized toploader when shipping them (i just enjoy the look/protection of the hard screw down cases)....hope this helps!!
