Reddit reviews Ultra Pro 18-Pocket Platinum Side Load Page with Black Background

Because the binder is small, flimsy, cards easily slide out, pages tear easily, and the cards aren't very well protected. I would only recommend it to people that are super careful with their stuff, don't transport it much, and plan on using it purely to collect in a safe environment. Visually it looks good, and it technically does the job fine, but I wouldn't trust it to protect a expensive collection.

9-Pocket Pages (50~100 count) cost anywhere from $6~$20 depending on the brand, count, quality, and style you go for. I personally recommend getting Ultra Pro side-loading pages with 9 slots on each side (18 slots per page): http://www.amazon.com/Ultra-Pro-3-Hole-Side-Load-Pocket/dp/B009WU5EG4/

Amazon is probably your best bet. These are the best card sheets available in my opinion, but it's unnecessary for, say, individual sets or master sets; I mostly use them for my binder of rare and valuable cards. These are probably the second best option and are good for any type of card, otherwise the regular ones found at Walmart and Target are fine; the only thing is they tend to sag at the bottom if the binder is standing vertically but it doesn't damage or affect the cards at all.

For binders, I haven't played around with too many different kinds, but I am very satisfied with the Avery brand. Here's the specific kind I use.

yea, no need to sleeve your whole collection. just sleeve decks as you make them. personally, i like flipping through my cards in a binder organized by set number rather than going through a bunch of cards in a box. i use these, two cards per pocket front and back.

for sleeves, i like the bcw colored double matte ones. you can find them on ebay for around 30$ for a 1000. i've been using bcw sleeves for the past two years and haven't had a single rip yet.

enjoy the game homie. once you get a feel of the game save this site on your phone. so useful.

I'm pretty happy with my storage so far so I'm happy to share.

Here's a link to a few pictures.

For the dice I went with 2 Craft Storage Boxes from Hobby Lobby.

The ones in that picture are a little different than the ones I got. In store they sell the flat bottom containers for $2 and a version with rounded bottoms for 3.

For the cards I'm using Ultra-Pro 18 slots card sheets in a 3 ring binder. I have all the cards sleeved and they fit perfectly (it even helped to fix the warping from the booster packs). You'll also notice that I can fit some card stock printed playmats in the binder as well and tuck the dice bags into the back of the binder.

For the Basic Action cards, Basic Action dice and Sidekick dice I fit them all into a standard Ultra Pro Deck Box (with the cards sleeved).

You can see me filling out some binders in this way here:

I use the following products:

• KMC Hyper Mat Clear Sleeves and KMC Perfect Fit Inner Sleeves
  
• Ultra Pro 18-Pocket Platinum Side-Loading Pages
  
• Case-it 4 Inch Zipper Binder
  
  The binders come in 2 and 3 inch sizes as well, I believe. Regardless of what binder you use, I cannot speak highly enough of how perfectly the KMC sleeves fit in the Ultra Pro sheets. Definitely give it a shot.
  
  Also, if you want to see a more detailed review of the binder itself, I look at it here:

You could get these sheets: https://www.amazon.com/Ultra-Pro-3-Hole-Side-Load-Pocket/dp/B009WU5EG4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1469986071&sr=8-1&keywords=ultra+pro+side+loading+pages

Actually if youre willing to splurge and upgrade I would recommend these: http://www.amazon.com/Ultra-Pro-Pocket-Side-load-Pages/dp/B009WU5EG4/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1422654715&sr=8-4&keywords=ultra+pro+binder+pages

Local shop happens to sell them for the same price as the platinum ones so check your store and see if they carry and how much they charge. The black background makes the cards pop more and you wont see imperfections of the back of cards if you put 2 per page.

Buy a white long box at your FLGS for a couple bux, sleeve all the encounter cards and put them in there.

Buy Ultra pro Black pages (https://www.amazon.com/18-Pocket-Platinum-Side-Black-Background/dp/B009WU5EG4) and put your player cards in a binder with them.

Commons aren't really binderable in the first place. I wouldn't bother with them. Side-loading sheets would definitely be the way to go if you can't keep your binder right side up consistently.

I tried switching to binders, got nice ultra pro platinum sheets and ultra pro 3-ring binders (found some space themed ones somewhere)


Nope! Takes up way too much space and too slow to access. Went straight back to the cardboard boxes with labeled tab dividers.


If you still want to do it, I'd be willing to sell you mine cheap if shipping costs are reasonable

Can't see your imgur link at work but you basically have two types of binder sleeve pages:
