troydivision1 Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 To answer a few questions: The boxes ($15.99 each) and unit ($39.99) were purchased at Ikea. The comics are stored in: Magazine toploaders and are protected by Golden Age Mylites 2 & (trimmed to fit) magazine boards The reason why is because I wanted a consistent look throughout my collection. Here are a few pictures of how various 'age' books look: Golden.....................................................Silver Bronze.....................................................Modern Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushwood Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Thanks for the heads up! This may be a long shot, but do you remember the name of the boxes and shelves at IKEA? They have some jacked up names and trying to find what you want is just 1/2 the battle sometimes. Thanks again for sharing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry if I've got a memory like a sieve - but have you got slabs in them too? (i.e. are the shelves/boxes tall enough?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushwood Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 I think I figured out the shelves! IKEA EXPEDIT When you search on their site it will also pull the drawers up for you too. (That was weird....) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troydivision1 Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 I think I figured out the shelves! IKEA EXPEDITYep...that's the shelving unit. The boxes are called: PRANT CGC slabs fit, but they have to be layed down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the treadmill it belong to my girlfriend and even if she don't use it, this is so heavy that we can't climb it upstair !!! Erik B, That is one stellar comic room... Question for boardies...How do you insure your collection? Thanks! Well I don't I know one day I absolutely make a list of everything and check for an insurance company. I know there is some in the US that insure comics, but here in Canada and moslty québec I don't think so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
