I recently purchased a new deck of cards and its coming into summer here in Australia, and it gets very humid. I was just wondering if anyone had any ideas for a cheapish tuck case protector or alternative tuck case that stops some amount of humidity getting to my cards?
Humidity and cards do not mesh well together. Ugh....I hate the summer time with cards. I typically will rotate a few decks in and out of my strolling sets as the cards begin to get to the point where they need a break or simply thrown away. You "could" try a small clear crayon box that we have over here in the U.S. at Walmart. I can post a pic later when I am home from work.
You need something that can seal, like a kitchen container with a rubber gasket to seal in/out moisture.
Then you're going to want something like silica beads to wick away the moisture.
The important thing is to avoid rapid changes in humidity in either direction.

"cheap" and "protecting your investment" don't often go hand in hand.
Either you purchase USPCC off the shelf and just agree, your cards will get wrecked over time
or you invest in a good deck protection system
