Card Keeping

By plebeianmaw, in 1. AGoT General Discussion

How is everyone storing their aGoT card collection? After getting the core set and nearly 20 chapter packs, my collection is rather huge. And I know most of you have way more than I do! At first, I was storing them all in penny sleeves. Now I've decided to pack my 60 card decks into Ultra-Pro or FFG Colored or custom sleeves (whatever fits the house or theme in my mind), while keeping my extras in the penny sleeves. And I store the whole bunch of it is those giant white cardboard card crates. There has to be some better ways out there. How are the pros doing it?

I'm storing mine the same way you are storing yours, so if there's a better way I'd like to hear it as well.

I am storing mine in two binders and I use those Ultra Pro pages on which you can write things like "Wildlings" or "Shadows". It's great while building decks but it takes a huge amount of time to sort my cards back into the binders.

Yeah, about two weeks ago I went through and put all my LCG cards into binders. It makes it easier for me to see all the cards when deck building, and I can actaully find what I am looking for now. Before I just used to keep them in their original packs, but I would often forget about cards that way.

I keep 1 copy of each card in binders, and the other copies go into a card box in number order.

The cards in the binders are divided by CP cycle. I just keep them in number order until the cycle is complete. Then I reorder them by house.

OCD much?

I keep mine unsleeved in cardboard boxes sorted first by house/neutral/dual house, then within each house Unique Char, Char, Attach, Location, Event.

Each box also has markings on it as to which house is in which box.

I do most of my deckbuilding by searching cards online and entering them into excel, so when I get to putting a deck into sleeves for play I just simply have to go look for the appropriate box and find whatever I need.

Works pretty well for me.

I stick them in old booster displays.

AToS for Baratheon (though I really should transfer them to I&F)

VED for Lannister

ASoT for Stark

ASoS for GJ

Targs are in this cool metal box I picked up somewhere.

Forget where I have the Martells crammed. i hardly ever touch them.

I was about to say that. lol. I am not so meticulous about the order, but I doubt you are alone :)

I have a large row box for my collection, and a smaller one-row box for 'playable cards'. :) Very few times do cards move from one to another :)
