DrawerBoxes - Anyone in Maine wanna buy some?
WANTED: Comic collectors interested in a new concept in comic book storage:
Drawer Boxes:
Traditional “Short Box” or “Long Box” forms of comic book storage boxes are simple cardboard boxes with lids, specially sized to hold comic books. Drawer Boxes work like file cabinets. The box of comics slides inside an outer “sleeve” box to create a comic “drawer”.
Your can stack these boxes, and still have access to the comics in the lower boxes. With traditional boxes you have to lift and rearrange the boxes to access all the comics.
The big problem is that these babies are made in Denver. Over half the expense of these would be the shipping costs. To keep the shipping costs down, I'd have to buy a lot of them at once, which would be a costly move for me. I concede that with my collection, I could use a lot of these boxes, but I'd rather not have to order such a huge quantity in one shot. I have tried asking some comic shops here in Maine to carry them, but I've yet to have any confirm if they will.
If I could get a few collectors together who want to get in on spitting up a pallet or two, that'd be great. If I have to, I'll get a pallet load of these all by myself.
UPDATE: Nevermind.
Casablanca Comics will be carrying DrawerBoxes soon. They are located in Portland ME, and Windham ME.
Thanks to them, for making what I'm sure will be a profitable business decision (from my own purchases at least, if nothing else.)
