I prefer binders because I can flip through and look at my cards and asked about binders for slabs in a post but haven’t gotten replies. My more valuable cards are in mags or or slabs in cases. I’d love a way to flip through and look at them too. Getting out a big case isn’t as easy as pulling out a binder.
I don’t like the clip-in binders like from school and use these instead. I have a giant zip one with all cards in toploaders but it’s SO heavy. It does let me flip through and look at cards, though. So far I have not found what I’d consider to be the ideal storage/display situation for me.

I was just looking at Chipper autos. Thinking I’d like to have one, preferably a rookie, partially because I got to go to a cookout with his single-A team when he was 18 years old. I had NO idea he’d be a HOF player. He was just a rookie who was making lots of errors at short

Thanks! Yes, this first submission will be a good experiment to see how well I can choose cards likely to get high grades. I know it’s something you can develop an eye for. Or I’d expect it would be

I keep seeing my hobby shop share Leaf hits on their social media and have thought the same thing. For my PC Leaf might honestly be a better way to get autos
