- Well, I don't really know where to post this so I am going to post this here . I have discovered a kick- way to divide your comics. What you need:
- File folder like this one:
- Scissors:
Step 1) Cut the folder in Half so you will have the Left and Right side of the folder seperated.
Step 2) Cut about 5-7cm off the Left and Right side
Step 3) Cut the top like this so you have a place to put the name of the comic.
There you go, there not as strong as the normal plastic dividers but hey you get 2 of them for 1 folder and you can just recycle the rest. I know this isn't hard to do but I just had to make the steps lol. Your-welcome if this helps....

- The plastic ones are worth the money, if you have it. If you don't have the money, I think the folder idea is better than nothing.

- I am even so that I made my wife's business buy me one of these:
Keep your eyes on Buy.com (I get their daily deal e-mail). I think I bought it for like $10 (retails for $30 I believe).
But yes, anything is better than just alphabetizing (what I used to do).Favorite Quote: "You're not just some guy in a bat costume are you? ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME?! - Justice League #1, 2011" Hunting for (mainly reprints/variants) - Please help! - See My Profile

Ok,...you're .lol.
Heh. Those are good. I have about 200 older ones in use from a shop buy out I did years ago. But with as many titles as I have it's just easier to whip up a home made one.

- Handwriting vs label maker.
lol. Ok the labels do look good.
Some home made "printed" labels on back boards. These fit a little better than the plastic dividers when using a file cabinet.

- .......... WOW.
I don't go to that much effort. Currently I don't even consider mine to be ordered. Doesn't help that I recently pulled over 200 comics out to try and sell......
But I tried dividers for a while and didn't get very far.Currently Reading: Graphic Novels: Nightwing (90s series), Lumberjanes Regular Novels: Chronicles of Prydain Add me on Goodreads

- Maybe Rocket should offer his organizing skills and travel to whomever needs it to organize for a fee.
