Those are BCW plastic cases- they have short boxes for both graded and ungraded comics as well as long boxes for ungraded comics. I really like them for eliminating the cardboard. I can get about 25 new CGC cases in a graded box, more of the older style. Amount of raw comics will depend on your backing board thickness. They stack well, are easy to move, and I like that you can slide a trading card size label in on the sides. There's a slight learning curve on putting them together but be patient and you'll have no issues. You can get them at various online retailers. I've bought them from Amazon.

Thanks! I'll have to check those out.

Speaking of graded comics upright, it kind of defeats the really cool stacking ability CGC does with their slabs in how they interlock together.

I would never stack slabs. 

The slabs on the bottom of the stack would NOT like the accumulated weight.

Noob question, but what do you find those cases? I've never seen them before.

Just make sure you order the correct size. They have a box for bagged and boarded comics and a different size for graded.

Do you guys think that putting a backing board in the middle of a comic can help fix a spine roll?

I have a few GA books with spine roll that had a backing board placed in the middle. I didn't know why, but thanks to your post i now get why. And since they still have spine roll I can attest that the technique didn't work well enough.
