Does anybody else have a problem with the fact that u need 2/3 folders to contain just 1 set. I no its different depending on what you collect, however, this folder contains commons, silver & gold only. Set out the way i want it, its too small and almost unclosable and stil not complete. My other inserts are in a second folder. It costs enough just to collect let alone buy multiple folders. Any thoughts on this?...

yeah i think they should go back to the dynamic days, the had nice big folders in 1994, and 1995.
I have three folders one folder has my base set and inserts, the others have silver and gold foils.
I am all for the big sets but i think they need to bring out a folder to suit.
 
Must agree on the dynamic folder size. I too am all for thr big set but id love to have them all in a giant folder. Id even be happy to pay $40 or sumthing as apossed to 50 for 2
 
Folder definitly needs to be bigger, i like the way of setting them out common-silver-gold also so doesnt leave any give, but i do like the zipup style extra protection for folders not in use everyday, so imo keep the zip double the size :)
 
I agree with you guys, for me I would like a bigger folder. But there are collectors who only collect a common set and their team inserts. A larger folder would be way to big for them.

Can't keep everyone happy.

Perhaps a choice, a standard 25 dollar folder with 2 packs or a giant folder for 50 with 4 packs
 
What about a ESP 2014 Maxi Folder....
Those who collect the complete set have room, And can get one for each release.
Those that collect common sets, Can collect all releases from one year in one folder?
 
It's been the same in terms of needing multiple folders since 2006-7. IMO it's because of the inserts. Too many of them. Dynamic only have 2 large folders, 1994 and 1995 and you put 2 series in the 1 folder. 1996 and 7 were the same size as those today but because there were not as many inserts, it all fit.
 
Yeah a maxi folder would be good, as I like to have a common card and it's silver and gold foil card next to it.
I did this for my traders set this year and it looks really once complete.
May be this could be food for thought and give this feedback to ESP?

There is a binder you buy off ultra pro it's called pro binder, the backing if the 9 pocket sleeves are like the deck sleeves you can buy for playing card games and gives maximum protection.
I keep my PC singed cards in it.

Again i guess it comes down to what you collect. Besides 96 having completed almost master sets,.. until 2012 i only ever collected what i got from 1 box each year and what i got from that box was it. im only just encountering the problem
now, as my desire to complete insert sets grows.I no of Dynamics big folders but didnt have them, just big binders. I think the general consensus here maybe a choice of folders for the different budgets of different collectors?
 
I've got my 2013 Elite in 2 Folders, 2014 Traders in 3 Albums, Looks like I will have to get 3 for this years Elite too, I like trying to keep the folders to a maximum of 25 pages otherwise they just get to overfull.
Most of the Select Champions series are in 2 folders other than the 2012 which is in 3...
Currently contemplating getting a 2nd 2007 Invincible folder as mine is ridiculously full...

Had u been given a choice of a bigger folder that holds a whole series would you perfer that? Or are you happy having multiple folders per set? Personally i dont mind the overall expense of storage but i would prefer to have 1 set per folder, even at 40-60 bucks, works out the same...
 
Personally, I don't rate nor like the zip up folders ever since Select moved away from them 4-5 years ago. I just buy binders from Officeworks and put them in those.

This

Bought two fat 3 ringers last night so I can put 2014 Traders & Elite in one, and all my recent WWE stuff in another.

Not fussed on having the "official" branded folders, I'll design my own cover & spine :D
