recently I bought some NIB calculators (12c platinum, 10bII, 10s+) to complete my collection. Unfortunately the are sealed in the blister-pack and the batteries are installed.
I want to store them "forever" - probably after some time the batteries will leak and destroy the collectibles.
How do you handle this? Do you (carefully) open the blister and remove the batteries?

Thanks for your feedback

If they're blistered, I'd apply some ointment. Big Grin What I do is apply hole reinforcements usually used to fix tears in paper sheets stored in a three-ring binder. Then I hang them from a hook. There's no pressure on them anywhere but the hole where the reinforcement is. This eliminates shelf wear. It does take a bit of room to store them that way but if you have rare, expensive calculators, it's worth it.
