Title: Storage options?
Post by: DooWopDJ on December 18, 2018, 08:57:14 am
How do you store Dominion?
I am sure this topic has been covered extensively before, but I could not find any recent option.
I have all the games, including the update packs, including the base card set.
I had a box that would just barely fit them all, but now with Renaissance, I will need to find something new
I was using just a re-enforced box and then had some plastic boxes inside of that (something used for 'Dragon' or something like that
I have each 10 pack in sleeves in those plastic cases.  The loose tokens are in 2 jewel cases that has 4 sections.

What is out there that will fit all of this without it being very expensive ($30 is about my budget)

old post I know, but I was kind of wondering about this myself, without trying to create a new post - tried to do a search, but couldn't find anything

I'm pretty new and considered trying to see if an old baseball card binder would work? (at least for everything except the treasurers and other large quantity cards)

My storage solution involves putting foam core fittings into the base game and intrigue boxes, to make three columns of cards in each box (after taking the plastic fittings out). Until Renaissance, I was using the sixth column for mats and tokens. I don't really have a storage solution for those anymore (hmm... maybe the Alchemy box because it's smaller), but now the Renaissance cards fit in. I use index cards cut in half which stick up just above the cards as labels (handwritten).

This doesn't include randomizer cards or blank cards or the extra set of base cards I got from 1E Intrigue, but it does include extra setup things excluding the mats and tokens, like Events, Landmarks, Projects, Ruins, Boons, Hexes, etc.

Here's my solution: https://www.reddit.com/r/dominion/comments/b3e4y4/my_free_storage_solution_for_all_expansions/

It works great and may be similar to the storage method that hhelibebcnofnena posted. Since then, I've bought Empires, which would also fit in those 2 boxes easily, but I've started using 3 boxes just so I don't have to worry about the heavy weight breaking the boxes.

I have this box:

Along with these dividers/tabs printed out:

https://boardgamegeek.com/filepage/64399/simple-clean-black-and-white-dominion-dividers

Right now it has base set through Guilds, unsleeved. Including 3 full sets of base cards (Dominion, Intrigue, and Base cards set). I have Adventures and just never got around to printing out tabs and combining it. I don't know how much of Empires, Nocturne, and Renaissance it would fit.

That looks really nice, but also expensive.

Yeah Broken Token jacks up the price for the nice Dominion lettering and insert. The actual box is literally just this, which you can get for much cheaper: https://www.hobbylobby.com/Art-Supplies/Storage-Organization/Storage/All-Media-Artists-Supply-Sketch-Box/p/5227.

Dominion is a great game but this topic of storage is a genuine concern.  I've seen one person do this and IIRC, he had 4 to 7 sets worth of large boxes (not to be confused with the Big Box).  10 cards per pocket, with some of them perhaps able to go beyond that (perhaps up to 15 or 20)?  Worked out pretty well.

I use baseball card binders and it works pretty well. I can fit 10-12 cards in each pocket. Then I just keep my Renaissance box that has all my tokens, Projects/events/landmarks, randomizer cards, mats, and base cards.

In the UK, the best solution I could find was the Really Useful 11L XL Box with the Large Tray 16. Room for your cards to stand up, sleeved with printed dividers and all the manuals laying on top. I only have Base, Intrigue, Seaside, Prosperity and Dark Ages currently in there, but there should be room for at least two more expansions and possibly more. I have the cards a bit more spread out currently.

this is my storage solution that uses the original boxes (i posted it on r/foamcore a few months ago) (https://imgur.com/a/f3kmxah)

It's heavy but until i start actually making paper versions of the Fan/Variant card forum should do fine.

This seems like the evolved version of my storage system.
