Hey, in just a few months, I've got quite a few In person signed trading cards, and was wondering how you store them? And was wondering if anyone can suggest toploaders or protectors that can be bought over the internet.
Preferably acid free!

I would think that any sports card shop would be able to take care of your needs. I buy supplies from a business in Missouri that always treats me well. They understand that I am an autograph collector not a sports card collector and seem to go out of their way to help me. If you want contact information just send a PM and mention this so I can send it to you. If not, I repeat your local sports card / hobby store should be able to help.
I have been asked many times about trading / selling some of my autographs. I am sorry but my collection is not and will not be for sale.
There's nothing better than contributing to the local economy. I always try to buy supplies locally if I can.
You might also consider purchasing the nine-pocket pages and storing them in a binder. The Ultra-Pro brand costs me around 17 bucks for a whole box (plus tax). If you do go that route make sure you store the binder flat, not upright. That's my preference. Using the toploaders is probably the best way to go, but it can get bulky after a while. I also like storing them in a notebook because I can go back from time to time and look at the cards easier than if I store them in toploaders.
