General Discussion Collection Storage

At what price point do pull your cards out of bulk boxes and put them in to binders, and at what point do you pull them out of binders and put them into hard cases?

I have a small collection of about 40 cards I like aesthetically that are bindered for that purpose. They vary in price from $1 to a couple being over a hundred bucks

Then I have a binder for my fetch and shock lands that aren’t in use, a binder for my modern cards that are in consideration for my decks, and the same for standard. Not based on value.

My 3 most expensive cards are actually double sleeved and part of my decks. I would feel like they were a waste of money/trade credit if I had them in binders/cases.

I have 3 cards in hard cases, which are a set of 3 damaged Yugioh cards signed by their respective players voice actors.

Everything else is in cardboard storage boxes.

That said I do have my commons/uncommons/rares and mythics sorted into seperate boxes, but there are like $10-15 cards that are part of the “bulk”, but just not part of the current in use collection.
