Default What do you use to protect/store your steelbooks?

Just like it says in the title, what do you use to protect/store your steelbooks?
I have mine in sleeves and on a shelf but was looking for something that would grant bigger protection, especially against eventual rusting.

So, ladies and gentlemen share your methods

Rusting with these is a thing? Didn't know that.
I just use simple sleeves. For my most precious steelbook from final fantasy, I also use 2(!) different transparent slipcases. I don't think it's really any use, but I had a few to spare and thought I give it some overkill.

The older ones are, a lot.
The newer ones not so much.

I thought about thus transparent slipcases, but with over 170 steelbooks it would be expensive as hell
Also, im curious... what FF steelbook is that?

Nothing really fancy for most collector's really.
FF is just my biggest passion, so it's a matter of sentimental value.

It's the chinese Advent Children Steelbook in sealed condition:
Spoiler!


Edit: For 170 Steelbooks, slipcases really are expensive. On the other hand, how much did you spent for steelbooks so far?
But to avoid rust, you probably need something air sealed or a tiny bag of moisture absorbing sand.

Ok now. Is it a steelbook or a steelcase? G1 or G2? Official or custom?

Sorry It’s just I have never seen this one before and either me or SBCollector need to update our lists.

I personally use this plastic cases and slips that are on the photo.
