Display cases for card shows

[Bkrum]

I am looking to buy a couple of display cases to use at some upcoming shows as my current ones are trashed. Where should I look be looking? Any suggestions would be helpful

Allstate display cases are popular. They have a website from which you can buy direct. I used them when doing shows in the past. They worked quite well.

Occasionally, you'll find dealers selling used cases, especially if they're getting out of the business of setting up at shows. Perhaps you should check with the promoter(s) of the show(s) at which you'll be setting up. They could ask their dealers in advance, which could possibly lead to you being able to buy cases at the show from dealers who no longer want/need them.

I don't own any cases myself (I'm not a dealer).

I've seen these at a few shows and liked them so much I took a picture to remember them in case I want to buy some for hobby / trade night events.

Allstate cases are the ones I’m familiar with although their website is a bit dated. Assuming they are still in business….

I have been using the Allstate cases for years. Take care of them and they take care of you. A big factor to think about is glass or plastic top - plastic scratches MUCH more easily and will start to look crappy over time. If you aren't moving them much that may not be an issue and there are some good plastic top cases out there.

Allstate cases can be purchased new directly from the mfr. I did find a few used ones in good shape on Craigs list. Checking in with dealers at a show is a good idea too. You could also check with Levi Bleam - 707 Sports cards & Jimmy Ryan at JP sports - they both rent cases at shows and may have some to sell used.

Interesting and timely thread. I'm looking for 2-4 display cases for the Feb. 10 gathering in No. Virginia. Anybody in the Philadelphia area have any to rent/purchase?

Cheers,

I'm a newbe here to the posts. Thanks for the add..Longtime sports collector , card show dealer and run a monthly card show here in Bristol RI. I absolutely love the rugged and ease to carry Christal clear cases. Saw them and spoke with the owner at the National in July. Affordable too. ! Good luck...(Allstate cases are great but heavy if you have to carry more than 1- the Christals stack up 3 per carry case).
