I have them, good, not great.

Not really worth the $20 a box.

I'll stick with good ole cardboard boxes.

I think I prefer the cardboard ones from MGM's link. As cool as Arn's wooden ones look, I'd rather take the lighter version over the heavier version. The sturdiness offered by the wood comes at too great a cost for bulkiness and weight - for me anyway.

Dude, those are good for basements. But I know for certain that Malorie wouldn't let me have carton drawers in the living room. Whereas she wouldn't mind the real furniture.
That said, it's only just a little dream of mine, considering the fucking price on those comics cubes...

Jesus fuck, just looked at the prices. I'd consider buying 1 or 2 for my bedroom, to keep the current comics I am reading in. They'd look better than the white cartons.

Really? I think they're fuck ugly, I'd never want them in my living room. :lipsrsealed2:

I would totally love to have them so they looked like normal furniture if I was keeping them in the living room or an office or something, but the white boxes fit amazingly well in my closets, or would be great in a comic-styled room. Oh well.. we can all have dreams

They look like proper basement furniture.

Yes, basement furniture.

What kind of basement do you have?

Jesus Christ. OK. Keep your cardboard boxes. One day, I shall have my nice comics cubes.

Heh, they do look better than cardboard boxes. For that price however, not so worth it.

Well, for me anyway, I'd need too many.

This store in Toronto has nice plastic pull drawers, the size of long boxes. They look awesome.

Damn.. I just figured out how many of the Cubes I'd need to hold everything I have now.. 24 of them at least, though probably more like 26 or 27... that's expensive as shit

I would need roughly 90 of them. That is without trades.

So, call it $7500 with shipping.

Plus I would need to buy 5-8 of them a year.

No fucking way.

Tragic Angelus

Yea, the constant need to rebuy them would kill in a heartbeat.

If I'm ever rich though...

Yes. Not sure what it is like in Europe, but in other countries the basement is where you keep all your old, ugly, cheap-looking furniture. Like the couch you bought when you first got married in the early 80s, the television you had before you upgraded to a nicer one, and your particle board hobby shelving units.

We, at least in Holland, don't really have basements. At all. A shed maybe, or if you live in an appartment building, a storage room. But basements? No.

Well okay, then I don't think that's the place where those comics cubes should be. They deserve better than the basement.
