And seeing as though those are those boxes. And not the Monster boxes.
You can put graded cards in those.
I was thinking about doing this for the Rice PC......
I hate how I have to keep my graded ones separate.

Yeah but I have random years of graded cards. And I have my Rice PC in order. So I have about 15 or so cards in one of those boxes beckett sends the graded cards in. That is only my Rice ones.

I'm on my third one of these. I have 60 cards at BGS right now so I'm gonna have to get another one in the next couple weeks. They seal up nice and stack up on each other. $10 at Walmart.

Insulate the chest if you're unsure about the Myths. My Vintage cards sit in a chest
but then again they aren't randomly thrown around lol. All that stuff people are searching are for cards in wood boxes that are unprotected. Big boxes hold little boxes!! Kind of like Tetris!
oh ya a light sand wouldn't be that bad either! clean that baby
Or like the plastic container above is amazing!! especially if you store in a basement or under sea lvl lots
water proof saves lives!

"Things to Avoid
Plastics, such as dry cleaner bags and zipper bags, and paper bags, such as grocery bags or kraft paper, produce acidic gases and absorb or retain moisture. Plastic retains moisture and humidity within the bag or container, which causes the discoloration of fabrics and paper. Retention of moisture can also lead to mildew. Plastic is made from petroleum products; as it ages and deteriorates, it produces chemical vapors that will yellow and erode fabric."

So what if I have some of my cards in toploaders inside a team bag which are stored in a white card box, will these eventually start to retain moisture and yellow on the top where the card is exposed a little??

This is the exact box but look around the site, they have a ton of different stuff, I think some with dividers.
