I'll never understand why people pay zillions for books with white pages and then store them in cardboard boxes which are off-gassing like crazy.

These are much better-

They are indestructible and I could stack them 4 high, no problem.

For long term storage, throw a few pieces of Microchamber paper in there and maybe a dessicant bag too.

And if you look in the other categories, you can get them for slab sizes, art book sizes, etc.

Agreed. This is what I use.

I definitely prefer the BCW plastic comic book bins. They are stackable, sturdy and safer (in my opinion). I have a bunch and will probably buy more in the future. Not only are they made of hard plastic, but they also have small slide “locks” to keep the lid securely closed. They are a bit more expensive than cardboard, but they are a great investment.

I already bought a couple of those corrugated ones that fit slabs and mylar books.  I don't plan on growing my collection massively and I am not currently buying new books, just a couple old ones here and there.  I think they will do the trick...

My books are in a Bankers Box now which is half as thick as a comic book box cardboard and basically garbage, anything would be better...

They came in!  25 buck for 2.  Seems like a normal short box only corrugated plastic and fits slabs and golden age mylar.  A little bit of moisture and rodent protection wont hurt!

 

 

I'm happy...

Nice, I use these too. Where did you get the dividers from?
