Big Memorabilia Pick Up - NEED HELP!
Hi Guys,
So I picked up the below Troy Brown Game Used and Auto's cleats, they come with enough certification to get me on a plane at the airport, which is always nice! Anyways, huge pick up for me as Troy Brown is a big PC guy for me, and these are sweet.
Now I need some help, do any of you recommend display cases for them? I see a bunch online, but hard to know the quality. There are some that cost nearly $250 that mount on a wall, and others on a table that would be about 150ish.
Let me know what knowledge you guys have about displaying them, thanks for the help!

Having some Seahawks items (gloves, helmet, jersey), I always like the wall mount, but something like that may require finding studs in the wall depending upon weight and such.
I've gotten mine from amazon, and found a few to be really nice, but you need to pay attention to some of them as well. Some may look really nice online, but are sh**y in person.
Table ones are nice, as long as you've got a spot out of the way for them. That is how I have my Seahawks helmet since I take it out at times for signings and such.

They have some cheaper then that on ebay. I just got some auto shoes. they will fit perfect in the full size helmet display I have so I am going to pick up another. Im just gonna put them side by side and have my local glass shop make me a stand out of acrylic to raise up one of the shoes. the shoes I have are a size 12.

Do either of you know of any websites/brands that are better than others?

Thanks! Much better than having them chopped up into pieces in a card!

Caseworks has a huge selection. They can be pricey but you can have the team logo engraved on the case as well. I have a few and am quite pleased.
