BCW Comic Bin, Black - Holds 150 Comics, Acid Free Storage and Organizer, Heavy Duty Plastic, Stackable, Includes Partition

Perfect size for my son’s comic books. Easy to put/fold together. Does not have a handle, but easy to carry. Lid folds together, interlocking to close. The color is black and the plastic is sturdy. No complaints!

Pretty expensive storage option, but easy to put together and very useful. The flaps are great, as are the locks, dividers and the fact that you can perfectly stack multiple boxes together and they remain stable. I do wish there were more divider holes for more customization and tighter comic stacks. Hopefully they update that in the future. Overall a good investment to keep your more valuable comics safe and clean for years.PS - You can still get the box together even if you start in the wrong order. Just don't force the pieces apart when you lock them in.

Modern age top loaders from "Ultra Pro" do fit in this short comic bin, perfectly. It fits just barely for a snug fit. Silver Age top loaders will not fit this comic bin.The plastic looks flimsy but it is surprisingly sturdy and when assembled together, it looks and feels very sturdy and durable. As you can see in one of my photos, I think I have over 20 top loaders with comic books inside and I am able to carry it around without it falling apart.Quality feels like strong PVC plastic with a glossy black finish. Assembly was easy and it doesn't require the instruction manual (comes included). The instruction manual is confusing and you are better off putting it together without it.I found two flaws with this comic bin. The partitioning could be improved. First of all, it comes with only one partition divider. You will need to fork over about $11 for one partition divider. Yup. This made me almost want to take away two stars. Another flaw is that the section notches are already dictated and will only hold a a specific amount of comic books and top loaders, which causes restrictions on how you want to organize your comic books, TPB, and top loaders.Note: When installing and "snapping" in the walls of the comic bin, be sure to align them properly and apply a bit of force to secure each wall. Otherwise, they may come loose and fall apart, dropping all of your comic books. I had to hammer down the walls with the palm of my hand and it felt like a secure and tight fit. I didn't have to force it to the point where it would break or crack the bin.The lid also seems a bit flimsy compared to the rest of the build quality. While it does have "locks" to keep the lid/cover secured, the hinges do not look durable. It is very easy to open and close the lids, but applying too much force can cause the hinges to break. So please be gentle when opening and closing the lid or cover.All in all, this is a solid short comic bin. No more cardboard boxes. Keep your comic books tucked away safely in acid-free short comic bins that hold a large number of comic books and even modern age top loaders. The value for one of these bins is decent at around $20-23 per bin, but BCW selling a partition divider for $11 a piece is tactless.

I’m just getting back into collecting and was looking for storage options better than the cardboard boxes so common in our hobby. I found these and am very happy with them so far. The only criticism is with the dividers. There are only a few places they can sit with how the box is designed. I understand why it was setup this way but this just won’t do for organizing a box. Separating by title or series or something. The only use I’ve found for them so far, and this might be their intended purpose, is to use them as a bookend for a partially filled box so the books don’t lean too much and bend from the weight. It serves that purpose quite well. I also like that these boxes are designed for stacking. I think the ad says they can stack up to 4 high safely. I’ve seen people online say they’ve gone as high as 6 high with no issues. I don’t have a need for that much just yet but it’s nice to know they are more sturdy than the cardboard boxes.

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.

Case is very durable and holds comics securely. It could probably be kicked around and no comics would be harmed. the build on lid can protect from damage from above.My only complaint, is that it has 4 slots for partitions, but only comes with one partition. If you are just using the partition as a backing plate (where all comics are in front of the partition to stand up, and the part behind is just empty space), then one partition works.I managed to find some partitions (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B077Z7H63V) and it comes in a convenient 3 pack for only $10. I feel like that should have been an option on this product though. Or at least a related item (but i suppose that one is Amazon's fault).
