Really cool to see how others manage their addiction. I’m in the process of moving sets into binders and bulk boxes and it’s quite the undertaking!

I've only been playing for about a year and my cards are in one of those bulk boxes sorted by colour. This definitely looks like a better way to organize them! I would imagine this took some time.

@ChickenMcThiccken 11 ай бұрын

i never keep them in boxes for too long. the moment the cards start rubbing up against each other; and the cardboard side of the box. it will start to warp your edges; etc. putting them in and out of the box ; all the time ; will have an effect on the card as well. sleeve them up first before anything.

@persydiangelo8461 11 ай бұрын

I don't quite do the binder method (yet), but I've always sorted my collection similarly. By set, by collectors number, more than 4 copies of a card gets set aside for bulk to give to younger siblings, friends, or sold for store credit.

I have struggled bad lately to organize. My issue is organizing for someone who regularly loves brainstorming deck ideas. Browsing cards, laying my cards out until i find the ~36 cards i want to use. So binders and alphabetical would just be too hard to keep in structure and easily browse. I tried binders for special sub collections. Great to cherish, struggle to deck build. Ive grouped by color identity but now those stacks are all large. Ive tried reducing out thr "bad" cards but the more you play magic the more corner cases you imagine about how every card might be good 😂

“What about binder dings?” Me, internally: “What about I don’t turn the pages like a psycho, and we are golden?” Seriously more chance of nicking sides with the side loader nonsense they have these days

@benjaminv02 11 ай бұрын

no actually. binder dings occur when you place a binder upright in a shelf and the front and back pages start to sag and then the rings put pressure on the cards

@ChickenMcThiccken 11 ай бұрын

eh. not really. plus the card is sleeved before it goes into binder. i still have a few cards that are unsleeved in the binder. looks perfect.

@mtgwizardofoz5094 11 ай бұрын

The sag is a risk if you’re putting more than 9 cards in. Keep it singles and it’s light enough to not sag

I have begun organising my collection in the same way and I will attest to the fact it is a massive undertaking. It will be so worth it in the end, knowing exactly where any given card is!

@ChickenMcThiccken 11 ай бұрын

i have mine organized by rarity. for example. binders of nothing but commons. binders with uncommons. binders with rares/mythics. binders for land; and binders for foils. every single card i have painstakingly inputed into tcg player to track my collection value. currently its about 7300 cards. i think i still have about another 1000 cards to catalogue into tcg player. mind you ; this has taken me at least 2 years to catalogue my collection on tcgplayer. got back to collecting magic in 2020.

@Spencer4686 11 ай бұрын

Interesting to see other people's collections. I guess the defining factor is how you buy cards to how you sort them. As I predominantly buy singles binders per set isn't a good fit for me right now but maybe if I start collecting blocks I will do that. 👌

@jdRamza 9 ай бұрын

Do you do 4 of each card in your binders for set collection or is it one of each? I hear you mention if you have more than 4 of something you think might be good later you keep it in a bulk box. From the peek into your binder it looks like just 1, unless you're doing 4 to a slot which it doesn't look like.

@8thPlaceDave 9 ай бұрын

I'll put 4 of anything that seems like it could be good or worth holding on to, and also for most rares. Otherwise it's just 1 per slot, so the binder isn't too bulky

Am I missing something? Because the way I see it, if you're looking for a card that's been reprinted multiple times, and you don't have copies of every set, it takes a while to find it. Or is that manageable because you sort by collector number?

@@computerwaste5950 I like them. They are very durable. You can fit 100 double sleeved cards, but it is a very tight fit. You need to take extra care when putting the deck into it, which is annoying, but it's something I'm okay with given the rest of the qualities of the box.

These cards are organized so poorly that this might as well be a comedy video. This is 100% a joke I don't actually mean this and totally love 8thplaces content, but I don't actually play magic so I wouldn't know if this is good organization or not.
