I am doing a lot of walk-around, and am finding that my card boxes are getting worn out QUICKLY. Any ideas? I am in contact with Bicycle, to see if I can get just empty boxes, but not sure if that will get me anywhere. Any ideas?? Perhaps open and fold out the box, laminate, and then fold back into place??
Thank you in advance! Doug R Salt Lake City |

A card guard or clip. Never heard of these?

Also consider a small portable camera case. Found mine at Office Depot. I put a deck in my Porper Clip AND in the camera case.

For my Jumbo Invisible deck I took clear shipping tape and wrapped it around the box and I imagine you could do the same with a regular box.

Placing clear packaging tape will work and will be the least expensive of options. All of the options listed above are worth while just pick the one you like best and use that.

There is a marketed product called box guard but you could also wrap the deck in transparant book foil.
