MJROOP Boxes.. Archiver -vs- Wooden Cases

onefasttalon

I already have 3 of the archiver boxes maxed out, and need a couple more. I have roughly 100-150 more graded cards needing a case to store it, and an debating weather to upgrade to the wooden boxes. I just don't know that they're worth (nearly) twice the cost. I like the archivers, but they are a tiny bit flemsy. I'm not hauling them around to shows or anything, just the occassional thumb through.

Any opinions out there on the archiver's -vs- the wooden boxes? Is it worth the extra expense???

I have personally made better in my woodshop class during my High school days. Others here really like them. I have since moved most of my colelction into my new gun safe anyways. The safe was so heavy it actually cracked the back step outside the rear slide door. It took 4 guys to get it in the house!!
I would go archives...

The archive boxes are garbage. I have one and it is not sturdy at all. I would recommend the wooden ones, but
they are a little expensive.

Just draw up a rough diagram of exactly what you want with measurements and take it to a local hardware store. Home Depot among others will cut the pieces of wood that you need for you.. Get some sandpaper, some nice stain and really good wood glue and put it togeather. Next step - start your own company to rival MJ.

The wooden boxes are very nice. I have 7 of them and have been happy. I think the Cherrywood version are nice looking. I believe they cost $129 which is pretty pricey.
