I've got a bunch of G1's stored in a rubbermaid tub in my basement. I have each one in a sealed zip-lock with it's accessories and then bubble-wrapped. They are all then placed tightly and neatly into the tub.

I know you don't want to keep them in the sun or in an area that the temperature fluctuates a lot but I've never heard much talk about sealing them from air. I've got a lot of nice white G1's and I don't want to do any damage to them by sealing them from air if it will cause the plastic to yellow or get brittle etc.

Anyone have any insight?

Thanks!

I would think that, if anything, air exposure could lead to dust which would be bad. I don't store my TFs in that manner so I'm not positive, but I'd think you're probably safe.

 

Plastic needs to "breath" as stale air simply destroys and discolors it over time.

 

I keep my collection in a climate-controlled storge. I have not open my collection and I keep them inside of cardboard boxes.
