BCW Short Comic Book Bin

So far it has been solid in keeping my books safe and secure. Love the stack ability. They’re very sturdy. Easy to assemble. Excellent quality. My only gripe is I wish it came with two divers per bin. Instead of one. But

I’ve been using this BCW comic bin for a little while now and honestly, it’s been a solid pickup. The build quality is way better than your typical cardboard long boxes—this thing feels sturdy and durable, like it can actually protect your comics instead of just holding them. It holds a good amount of books (around 150 like advertised), and I like how everything stays organized and easy to access. The lid is a big plus too, especially if you’re stacking or storing them long-term—it keeps dust and moisture out way better than open boxes. Another thing I like is how clean it looks. It doesn’t have that messy storage vibe—more like something you don’t mind having out in the open. The handles make it easier to move around, even when it’s full. Only downside is it’s a little pricier than cardboard options, but in my opinion it’s worth it if you actually care about your collection and want something that lasts. Overall, definitely recommend if you’re serious about storing comics the right way.

These are honestly really great for comic storage. Easy to assemble, they feel pretty sturdy, comes with dividers that have slots to lock in place, ability to stack with others and can lock the lid closed if needed. Gonna be using these as my go to and only storage bins.

Let me just say, these are the best comic storage options in the game. They are sturdy, easy to put together, hold a lot of comics, and look great. They hold up so much better long term than your standard cardboard boxes do. If you are on the fence, you should definitely give them a try! Now the real reason for the review. I ordered the 2-pack used from Amazon. Clearly a return, I don’t mind. I’m happy to save the space in the landfill and save a couple bucks along the way. Or rather I would have been if Amazon has actually sent the 2-pack. Instead they only sent me one. No big deal, I can chat with them and have them send the missing one, right? Wrong! The only option is to totally return the package, be refunded, and the purchase it all over again. How does that make sense? Waste all the time, gas, and money for them to send it back and send a replacement when they could just send me the missing one. Of course if you could speak with anything vaguely resembling human instead of choosing from predetermined customer service options that don’t even make sense for the situation maybe we could find a more elegant solution. But alas, such is not in the cards. TLDR: The bins are great definitely buy them, just be careful of Amazon doing its thing.

This comic bin is perfect for keeping your collection organized and protected. The acid-free material ensures your comics stay in pristine condition, while the sturdy construction supports up to 150 issues without bending or warping. The design is simple, stackable, and easy to access, making it ideal for both display and storage. It’s a practical solution for collectors looking to safeguard their comics. Overall, a high-quality, reliable, and protective storage option. Highly recommended for serious comic enthusiasts.

Have order multiple bins and this would be a review over the multiple orders. - It is pretty straight forward on putting the bin together, you will have to put a little muscle on making sure that the corners are snap together but once they are snap together, they won't easily come apart. The only part they could take the longest is just putting the base in when you have 3 walls connected or the last wall but overall its not too bad. - To maximize the most comics to fit into the bin without having to worry about damaging the comics then you will need to alternate the comics. Like 5-10 comics facing one way then then next 5-10 comics facing the opposite direction. Outside of that, the comics in bag & board fits nicely in the bin with some wiggle room on the side and decent clearance room above the comic when you close the lid. - The lock lid is fine but just there to make sure the lid just doesn't random fly open or when something is rubbing against it. - To me the best feature of the bin is 2 features. First one is the handle on the sides that allow for easy grabbing and moving of the bins. The handles has grooves that allow your finger to fit and get a decent grip. The second feature I like is the stacking of the boxes. There are little stands and groves that allow the bins to be "semi secure" on top of each other. I've stack some bins about 3 bins high and they seems fine. Reason for not getting the 5th star comes down to two aspect. First is the price and the condition it comes in. The price can be a bit iffy at time and the price has been going up a bit, at the moment the the price seems to be fine but probably more toward the price point of now looking at different options if it continues to go up. The second issue I had was the condition of the bin when it arrived. Since you have to put the bin together, the box contains all the moving parts and they are not really secured. So I have a few incident where the plastic corners of the wall had made scratches on the other pieces, even though these are storage containers, I would have felt better if I was the one who damage the bin than having it arrived damaged already.

I have purchased about 50 of these now, and they have all come undamaged. The worst was one order for a single unit from Amazon which they did not overpack and the box arrived open and missing the divider. Shame on Amazon for not overpacking or at least taping the box closed. But, as a product, they are very nice. They take a lot of hand strength to snap together (hence the 4 stars), but they're easy to figure out and assemble (and come with instructions). They stack nicely and are sturdy, and for me, one box with around 125 comics in it is just about the right weight to be hauling, lifting, or moving. Better price points when you buy more is also nice. They _do not_ fit a silver age toploader the regular way, so look for a magazine or graded bcw bin for that. It would be nice if BCW made a toploader bin, a size between comic bin and magazine bin, but that's thinking outside the box (no pun intended). I think all four dividers should come with the box when you order it and not just one, as this makes them about $10 more expensive if you want to have full utilization of the box, but other than that, I can't really complain about this product at all. I think BCW found a market need and has exploited it well with this product.

As a comic book collector, the BCW Short Comic Book Bin has been a game-changer for organizing my collection. These bins are fantastic for keeping my comics safe and neatly arranged. The durability of these bins is impressive. They're made from heavy-duty plastic, which gives me peace of mind knowing my comics are well-protected. The bins are stackable, which is a huge space saver in my small apartment. I can easily stack them without worrying about them tipping over or causing any damage. One feature I really appreciate is the acid-free material. This ensures my comics won't deteriorate over time, which is crucial for maintaining their value and condition. The bins hold a significant number of comics, around 150 standard-sized issues each, which is perfect for my growing collection. The only minor issue I found is that the bins are quite deep, so if you’re not careful, it’s easy to misplace a comic at the bottom. However, this is easily solved by organizing comics with dividers or separators. Using these bins has made my comic collecting experience much more enjoyable. It's easy to find specific issues without having to sift through piles of books. Plus, the sleek black design looks great in my space. For any comic book enthusiast, these storage bins are a must-have.

Buen producto

The BCW short comic bin is a great sturdy choice for holding my comics, and protecting them. I don’t believe they hold what they advertised once they are bagged and boarded. You do need to use the dividers intelligently to keep the comics from falling over and bending until it fills out. It does get quite heavy when full, so I would stick with the short bin over long. Item is easy to assemble and only takes a few minutes. Although it keeps going up in price, I would buy again. They also stack nice on other units and are a nice size for storing in closet. I would recommend this any day over cardboard.

eine gute Qualität für meine Archivierung meiner Sammlung.

These comic bins are perfect for storage and comic book transportation. The perfect size.

Was looking for something sturdier than the "cloth" boxes and this does the trick pretty well. Works fine for my TBPs as well as other hardcover editions, internal width is actually larger than a standard TBP by some 2-3cm. Would definitively buy again but I was very lucky to find out that this set of 5 would hold my collection based on some quick calculations!
