Yes another thread by me...

Recently, I've notice a bit more people have completed sets or subsets or whatever. What do you do with them once they are done? How did you have them originally?

When you were building, did they never leave their plastics and they were in a box, or did you put them in pages. Or now that the set is done and they were in some sort of holder, do you put them in a box someplace and forget about them?

I'm just wondering because I'm the kinda guy that likes to use binders for stuff I want and boxes for the rest of it.
 
i put all my complete sets in binders and as im building them they are in a box in penny sleeves...and i look through my binders every chance i get with my kids...
 
The plan when (if) I complete my Ice Scripts set is to get a frame for it, but I'm not 100% on that. If anyone has a better/nicer way to display, I'm all ears.
 
Depends on the set. Ones I intend to look at frequently end up in binders (my Topps sets from the 70s and 80s). Less frequents go to the boxes.

But sometimes, if it's a smaller set or a subset, I'll put them in top loaders. My 2005-06 UD set has the base in binders, but all the YGs are in top loaders. Obviously, jersey card sets need to stay in their top loaders too. My Alberts player collection is in one touch holders and top loaders; Zinovjev is all in soft sleeves.

07-08 Black Diamond is all kept together - anything above a single diamond is in a penny sleeve, while the triple RCs and all quads are in top loaders. The "big three" rookies are in one-touches, and Carey is in the display case.

08-09 Black Diamond - I'm breaking it up! LOL
 
I completed the 00 - 01 UD ICE with the Update as well..

I've had it on my table at shows for quite a few years. Lotsa interest by no bites, or nibbles for that matter.. BV is $800.00 and offers have been in around the under CAD $200.00 mark.. :(
