Mylites 2/Fullbacks Size Question

[Ogami]

Can someone please explain to me why the Mylites 2 jump from 7.25" to 7.75" on width when a SA book would fit PERFECTLY in a 7.50"?

 

And why the Fullback jumps from a 7" to a 7.5" ? Again, when the SA book would fit perfectly in a 7.25"?

 

I mean, seriously, the Standard bags are too snug, the current SA/GA bags are too loose. The ones I'm suggesting would be Juuuuuuusssssst right.

 

Besides, there's already an 8" bag. Do we really need a 7.75" one? And a 7 and 5/8 board on top of a 7.50. Yeah, we really needed that 1/8th of an inch.

 

Look at EGerber's website. Quarter inch increments all accross the board except where they are needed. Mylites at 7.50 and Fullbacks at 7.25.

 

Anybody else see this, or am I missing something?

 

 

(the impetus for part of this rant is I recently purchased all new shortboxes and am finding that the SA bags abd boards don't fit. GRRRRRRRRR)

 

 

 

 

 

edit- Increments, now with one "M"!

Pet peeve of mine for years,as well

Their GA/SA size works great for my SA books. If it was any smaller I'd worry about blunting corners, especially the LRFC.

 

Can't use a comic short box though, you have to use magazine size.

I do not know. I have voiced the same concern more than a few times. Maybe sometime in the future it will be fixed.

I’ve been collecting for 20 years and have yet to decide on the best size for my books. I think I’m

it's an illness.

 

Thanks for the affirmation, guys. I hadn't thought about magazine boxes. I'll look at that.

Keep in mind that a magazine box will give you about 1-2 inches of extra width, so you have to be careful when moving the boxes to keep the books from sliding around. This hasn't been a problem for me but they'd be a pain if hauling books around to a show.

unfortunately, they will also take up too much space on my shelves. I may have to consider buying GA boxes. (AGGGGGGHRRRRRRRR)

Why? 8 inches the outside dimension on the boxes last time I checked. I have the silver-gold boxes and the 7.75's fit perfectly snug; I use the magazine boxes for bigger books.

You like your comics bowed?

You misunderstood my shorthand, Conan. What you said made sense. I'm saying that the fact that they don't fit, weren't made to fit, "makes no damn sense".
