Packing books and staying in character

23 posts in this topic

Those books were begging to be damaged. I do not understand why people can't seem to grasp the concept that comics need to be far away from sides and corners of boxes.

 

It doesn't matter how hard the material they are in is...if they are anywhere near the sides/corners of the box, they are far, far, far more at risk for damage.

 

Any time when something can smash, dig, hit, gouge, jam, or ding a corner or side, the books will be damaged if they are up against the side.

 

This is not rocket science.

 

hm

 

Maybe it is.

 

I spent several hours this evening re bagging and boarding and inspecting the books. Each book as I took it out of the bag the static attracted all the small bits of the crushed packing chips. It is the first time I ever needed to vacuum books. Such a mess. Awful packing job.

I purchased a large lot of Sandman books off Ebay. How I received them made me wonder if there is a new way to ship comics.

 

Maybe this concept can be expanded upon.

 

That's a good idea.

 

I would like to ship you some comics. Please choose from the following series:
