For cards stored in toploaders you’ll want boxes with wider and taller rows to accommodate those holders. Therefore you’ll need taller dividers so the tabs are visible above the toploaders. BCW Tall Card Dividers are not tall enough to divide a collection in magnetic card holders. These boxes are best for toploader storage:

  1. Shoe Card Box (2 rows), 1-BX-SHOE
  2. Super Shoe Card Box (3 rows), 1-BX-SSHOE
  3. 1,600 ct. Card Bin (2 rows, plastic), 1-CCB-1600
  4. 3,200 ct. Card Bin (4 rows, plastic), 1-CCB-3200

1-TCD-G, 10 dividers per pack
3 1/4″ x 5 11/16″

Graded Card Dividers work great with the standard slabs from PSA, Beckett, SGC, CSG, HGA, and ISA. They have plenty of space to label the top, but short enough to fit under the lids of closed Super Vaults and Graded Shoe Boxes. Use these dividers with:

  1. Super Vault Boxes (1 row), 1-BX-SVAULT
  2. Graded Shoe Boxes (2 rows), 1-BX-GSB

BCW dividers are made from polyethylene, an acid-free (archival-safe) plastic. A fine tip permanent marker is recommended to label your dividers, although some label machines work great too. To keep your cards upright if the box is not full yet, try BCW Monster Pads (1-MPAD).

          • It’s probably been brought up or thought of.. I would guess graded card dividers aren’t flying off the shelf as the others. But if you have 100s of PSA sgc etf I feel you.

            Appreciate all of you at bcw
