Seemingly these are one's that are reusable, I just tried to stack them with a walkthrough, but it all seems a little unsightly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes they do come in handy when mailing out comics. But go figure, I seem to be buying way, way more than I'm selling.

I really love that cabinet. I didn't think I'd have more than 100 graded comics, but now I'm glad I have the cabinets. I'm in the process of updating my comic room too. There is a recent video that I show the cabinet in more detail. The last cabinet took me a long time ti find locally and I actually had to paint it to match the other two.

The first two I think I paid around $480 each Then, I was able to find a beige one for around $300 and spent $100 on paint etc... so I spent less than $500 for each cabinet on average. That's still a lot, but for 100 books, that's about $5 a book so not too bad They are very well build, so if you can find them locally for $300 to $800 I'd get them. Here's the update video about the cabinet ( the answer is; Yes , to me that's the best cabinet I could find for what I need; may not be the best option for everyone). I just think it's so cool to open the drawer and see 10 awesome comic books all at the same time jcjames and Murphman13 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd get it, especially if it is a SAFCO w/ 10 drawers ! The cheapest I ever seen was $200 in not very good shape. I didn't get it because seller was in adifferent state and shipping was very expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was another, larger one also for $42.50, but it wouldn't fit in my car. I'll fix the top and repaint it like in the video...once I figure out where to put it.

There were a few that had been neglected in some warehouse and looked all rusty and chewed up and they still wanted like $500. Someone probably needs to make something like this more tailored to slabs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone probably needs to make something like this more tailored to slabs. Just spitballing an idea of displaying slabs. If someone were to make something tailor-made for displaying slabs, you know those poster displays some comic book stores have that hold say 20 posters vertically in cases and you flip through them, and if you leave it open to one poster it just stays that way until someone moves it again? It'd be cool to have something like that for slabs that maybe held two across and four or 6 vertically, so you could leave it open and easily change the ones visible.
