I could have a better system, but I don't think it needs to be perfect. The important thing is to have some sort of box that closes, just to keep them together and away from the moving air from opening and closing the freezer. Since they're below freezing, the moisture doesn't matter. It only matters if it gets inside to the chemicals, and when you're taking them out. The standard 1 dram amber vials you can buy on Amazon are perfect, they screw on tight and keep your chems safe from air and moisture. The reason you let them raise to room temperature before opening them is because of condensation, yes. If you open them, it can get on the inside of the glass, from what I have read. But closed, it just forms on the outside, and quickly disappears when it reaches room temperature. I have never had any problems with this.
With tabs, well, with regular LSD, I just keep them in a sealed jar in a drawer in my closet, at room temperature. I have never noticed any degradation of LSD except when stored in poor conditions, like in a sandwich baggie on a shelf, or if it is stored in a damp location. If you keep air, light, and heat away, they're fine. AL-LAD and ETH-LAD, however, do degrade at room temperature. Sadly, many of my tabs, about 30-40 of each, turned dark gray after a few years being stored alongside my LSD, and the potency is notably reduced. So I decided to store them, plus my newer ones that hadn't degraded, in the freezer. But, being paper, I felt I had to go a step further to avoid the moisture from the freezer. So I bought a vacuum sealer, and sealed 10 strips into airless, sealed bags. That way, I only open up 10 at a time. I have had them stored for years, and the ones that were new and still white are still just as white as the day I got them.
Lastly, the freezer may be overkill for most of my tryptamines, but old habits die hard. Back in 2003 when I started in this game, all the tryptamines were being sold as freebases or HCL salts, and they were notoriously unstable and would degrade quickly unless kept in the cold. But since then, they are mostly fumarate or succinate salts, which seem to be shelf stable. Still, I don't trust them to be as stable as phenethylamines, so I keep them in the freezer to be safe. I also have some freebases (MPT, MiPT, DPT, MALT, EPT), which I'm quite certain would degrade rather quickly at room temperature.
I just said a lot of words to really say a couple of simple points: for long term storage of any drugs, the things you need to avoid are heat, light, moisture, and air. Tryptamines are less stable than phenethylamines, but the fumarate salts seem like they may be stable enough to make the freezer unnecessary. But as long as you keep them sealed in amber vials and only open them after they reach room temperature, you'll be all good using the freezer.
