I have started to notice some wear on my Rewards cards due to just keeping them in a stack with a rubber band and would like to know what everyone else does with their cards. I am hopefully wanting to find something that would be a binder insert or something that would make transportation easier too.

Anyone have any suggestions or want to talk about what they use?

I have a double layer of protection for mine.

The first and most important is the "in play" protection. I use Large Size polyester Currency Sleeves (3.5" x 8"). These are the *perfect* size for the Rewards Cards and greatly protect them from wear and tear as well as the occasional 'oops' at the gaming table.

For long term storage, you can get 3-hole plastic Currency Pages (3 / page size). In fact, I double up and store the Rewards Cards in the plastic sleeves in the Holders. It takes a rather large binder to hold all of them but it's worth it.

A coin, collector or currency store should have both in stock.

Bah, why was this question posted twice?

I just typed up a nice summary in the other thread, with links from a google search on where to buy products even, in case your FLGS doesn't carry the right stuff.

*sigh* Kids these days.

(This, of course, coming from a 30-year-old kid, himself) ;)

I keep my cards in the three ring binder sleeves for safe storage as well, but I also go a step further.

I photocopy all of my cards that I might lend to other players at the table. I've had cards "walk away" and the photocopy is obviously not useable without me showing the originals. The photocopy also provides the player borrowing the card with all the info/text about the card.

This also has the added benefit of less wear. Since the cards are looked at and verified in the binder, but not used, they get little to no wear.

Thrice, actually. The OP posted it here, in the RPGA General board, and in the LG board.

I can't say for sure if those top-loaders are the right ones or not. Harliquinn would be better able to speak to that, but they seem to fit the description of what HE uses, and he was the inspiration for my posting. ~shrug~

The rigid PVC I think are different than the ones I use. The ones I use are flexible and 'soft', but still very durable. You might prefer the more rigid plastic ones, however. I don't know if those will fit into the 3-page sleeves.

I would stop complaining, and then give all your cards to me, especially your adventuring prodigy one!!!
