How do you store your Comics Ultra Pro or BCW? 0

[Ladic]

For Cheapo Comics:

Ultra Pro or BCW

 

For More expensive:

Mylar or Mylites2

 

Scotch Tape or resealable bags?

 

what is your preferred method?

[ExNihilo]

I used to buy whatever was offered in my LCS.  I think it was mainly Ultra Pro bags.  Oddly though, it was BCW boards.  Now I buy my bags and boards on eBay and am currently working my way through a set of BCW bags/boards.  I didn't realize there was a difference between the two brands.  One time I went with some cheap no-name off brand.  Boy, was that a big mistake.  You get what you pay for.

Minor keys, expensive variants, etc get the Mylites2 and Full board treatment, in an archive bag.

Regular books get scotch tape, but the Mylites2 are placed upside down in the archive bag so no tape is required.  I have considered going to blue painters tape.

I don't mind either brand.  I do like the convenience of the resealable bags.

I absolutely detest the 'Vintage' brand of boards that tend to warp and curl.

BCW boxes and as for unslabbed books I use Mylite II's and fullbacks on everything. I also used archival ink on Avery acid free tags to tape them shut. That might be overkill but I like how comics look in Mylite II's.

Be warned, resealable bags are very, very sticky...    I don't touch them after a couple of incidents

while I like their product I find them nearly impossible to deal with. I am in Canada, try calling their "out of the USA" phone line.

Is Scotch tape bad for mylites 2?

I am cheap a board and bag. I tried the self sealers and didn't like them. I do like 3mil SA bags and boards to use.

The worst - buy some 3M tabs - you'll love them no stick no residue no danger

What's the hurry? All good things must wait.
