Pathfinder ACG: New Box

It finally happened – I got rid of the Pathfinder ACG box insert. At first, I was rather pleased by the insert (in contrast to every other box insert I have ever had) – it seemed to support sleeved cards in the volume needed by the game, and all the components had a nice place to fit. This all came crashing down, however, when I noticed that the card sleeves kept ending up with bent corners. At first, I thought it was because of the cards themselves (they have rounded corners), but then I realized that the bottom edges of the insert were also rounded (presumably to fit the cards better), which led to the card sleeves bending to compensate.

This was a deal-breaker. Bent sleeves made the cards significantly harder to shuffle, and made it so that they didn’t sit flat on the table. Most importantly, it was damaging my card sleeves, which would decrease their life significantly, and, in turn, could cause a decrease in the life of the game itself (which is the whole point of card sleeves). As soon as I found this out, I began devising a new box solution.
