This is the the almost perfect solution to comic book storage. Throw away those cardboard boxes. Sturdy, stack-able, locking lids, almost the same price as others charge for cardboard boxes.
The few gripes I have are minor, and in no way would keep me from buying again:
Sides will separate if you "over pack" them. Solution: a couple drops of glue to each side panel when putting together, or don't over pack.
Lid hinges are the weak link, be careful when putting together...force IS needed to put these together tight, and if top lid is down while applying force it can come off at the hinge. This happened to one I put together, but luckily the hinge wasn't damaged, and could be pressed back in. I COULD see these breaking though, rendering the lid useless.
Could use more dividers supplied (instead of sticking you to pay for extras), and more slots for dividers.
Final thought:
Shop around before buying these. I purchased a "graded comic" box here because the price was cheaper. I bought regular comic size boxes at that auction site because they were WAY cheaper in bulk. I was able to get 5 regular size boxes for $99, which makes them actually cheaper than what some others charge for inferior cardboard boxes.
