Ultra Pro modern age top loaders fit in this short comic bin.
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.

Strong Comic Storage Boxes
These are very sturdy and easy to assemble. I have a few of them and have no issues. Much better than a cardboard box. Comics of various sizes fit really well.

Essential Comic Book Storage for Collectors
As a comic book collector, the BCW Short Comic Book Bin has been a game-changer for organizing my collection. These bins are fantastic for keeping my comics safe and neatly arranged.The durability of these bins is impressive. They're made from heavy-duty plastic, which gives me peace of mind knowing my comics are well-protected. The bins are stackable, which is a huge space saver in my small apartment. I can easily stack them without worrying about them tipping over or causing any damage.One feature I really appreciate is the acid-free material. This ensures my comics won't deteriorate over time, which is crucial for maintaining their value and condition. The bins hold a significant number of comics, around 150 standard-sized issues each, which is perfect for my growing collection.The only minor issue I found is that the bins are quite deep, so if you’re not careful, it’s easy to misplace a comic at the bottom. However, this is easily solved by organizing comics with dividers or separators.Using these bins has made my comic collecting experience much more enjoyable. It's easy to find specific issues without having to sift through piles of books. Plus, the sleek black design looks great in my space. For any comic book enthusiast, these storage bins are a must-have.

Sturdy, secure, quality storage solution.
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.

Nice box
Very strong plastic I assembled the base incorrectly the first time and it was very hard to take apart. Other than that it’s easy to assemble and feels super strong

Great item!
I recently began collecting comic books again after a 40-year hiatus. I quickly ran out of room to keep them, and I didn't want to purchase cardboard boxes to keep them in. I was happy when I found this container. It's easy to assemble (if you actually read the instructions!) and they are stackable. These containers will hold 150comics, but I recommend leave out about 5 so you can easily remove issues if and when you so desire. So far I've purchased 8 of them. Highly recommended.
