Yeah Guys,
I thought that I would share some plastic cases that I just recently purchased for those that might be interested. Meijers has these in their Scrapbooking section for 40% off on clearance, so I paid about $20 for each case. For me these cases work really well for storing my mail away Redback figures that are still sealed with their cards. Each case has 16 individual small cases inside, so it makes it nice to keep your figures from being stacked on top of each other. The case also has a carrying handle on top. The small individual cases curve inward on each side which makes it nice so that the corners of the cards doesn't get all smashed up. There's a little bit of slack in the cases, you could wrap your figures in bubble wrap for extra protection, but for normal storage, I think they're okay. I've included some pictures below to give you an idea of how they look, I've managed to fill up 4 full cases so far with just my sealed bagged figures, with just a few left over. I guess these cases were originally meant to organize 4x6 photos. Thanks, Everett

Yeah,
The clearance price was about $20 for each case. The normal price was like $35 each. They still have them at Meijer, as I just bought these a couple of weeks ago. I bought a total of six cases, but I think I'm going to take one back because I don't think I'll need it. I bought a smaller plastic box that comes with six of these individual cases inside for about $5. I'll use that one for the few left over bagged figures that I have. I just thought it might interest other people as well, I'm sure that there are other collectors that don't want there mail away filecards to get all mangled. Thanks, Everett

I'm sure that you probably could. Meijers is pretty much closing them out, so that's probably where you would get the best deal. I left the sticker on the cases in the pictures with the brand name, I'll probably peel it off at some point. Thanks, Everett

Really cool. It doesn't eat up much more space than you need for the card, which is hard to find nowadays.

There is a bit of a problem. We don't have a Mejiers store in Alabama. That's why I was wondering.

Yeah, they are Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana pretty much.
Those cases look great for protecting the mail aways. Nice Find, Everett.
