I accidentally posted this on the wrong forum, so here it is again.
Just out of pure curiosity, how are you able to store auto patch book cards? Do they fit in pages or toploaders? Also, what the hinges of the book made of? I have never seen one and I’m sure I will never pull one, but I’m curious about them.

I only have two, and I store them in 25 card hinged cases. BCW does make a 360 point (9 mm) top loader, but I don't think its thick enough for the thickest booklet cards. The hinges on the cards depend on the set and size of the card. Both of mine are from Topps. One is 2 "pages" and the hinge is thin card stock, it opens like a book. The outside is one piece with 2 thick cards inside with a space in between, allowing the book to fold. My other booklet is three "pages". Its basically 3 game used cards with small plastic strips inbedded into the layers on the side of each card.

Yeah I just seen them the other day, they have booklet toploaders now. Not sure the specifics either but a quick google should help you out in that department.

Thanks for the replies everybody.
Billy, that Europe card is awesome. I love watching the FIBA World Championships so I usually appreciate those Euro players more than most. I was even probably the only one who didn’t think the Grizzlies got fleeced in the Pau Gasol trade because I had seen his brother play before.
And yup I know you don’t use any plastics, you’re the one who convinced me of the same. However, I have really been thinking about making some small binders of my special cards to look through easier. The guy who runs my local shop told me that Ultra Pro premium plastics don’t have the same issues they used to have in the past, and I know others have said the same. Still debating though, I can never make a decision in this hobby! Lol

There are a few companies that make magnetic one-touch-style cases now to display booklets opened. I haven't bought any yet, but I only have one book so far. I keep it in a 25-card plastic non-hinged box. Here is my booklet: http://www.tradingcarddb.com/ViewCard.cfm/sid/93549/cid/7378455?PageIndex=1

i have quite a few..it depends on the thickness of the book. you can store in a top loader, a magnetic one piece holder (so the book is fully open) or a 25 (or more count) plastic card container. which ever is your personal preference.

I just got three of the panini finals jersey patch booklet. 2 of them were shipped to me in a 25 hard card case. It is perfect to hold it in place. And two of them were shipped to me with a thicker plastic penny sleeve around it.
