You should fit 200 or so before it starts getting tight

I have a few 10"s with bigger, almost LP sized packaging

 

no you don't.

 

you're lying.

 

you're a liar.

 

this is a lie.

 

edit: i have one of those target cubicle shelves, 6x2, or 2x6 however you want to put it.

 

according to discogs i have 294 twelve inch records.

 

only about 30 of them are stored in separate casing, which is my classic rock/damaged/valueless storage area.

 

the rest are on my shelf in the 4 out of 6 compartments.

 

the extra 2 compartments store my speakers, box sets, and 10"s.

 

it's pretty convenient set.

 

anyone who has seen my posts in this thread understand how i'm doing this.

Looking for temporary storage for about 400-500 records with the possibility of moving down the road. Went to the container store yesterday hoping to find something but struck out. So far I've bought one cardboard box with a lid from bags unlimited to hold between 50-100 7". I need more ideas. Records all range in size from 12" to 7". Any ideas?

solution: don't move.

Was in a similar situation where I needed temporary storage for several months prior to a move. I picked up a bunch of the uline 13x13x6 boxes (http://www.uline.com/Product/Detail/S-13297/Corrugated-Boxes-200-Test/13-x-13-x-6-Corrugated-Boxes) from a seller on ebay. My LPs were in storage for close to a year, before being trucked cross-country, and they came out of the boxes in amazing shape. They probably have boxes that are similar in shape, but closer to 10" and 7" too.

Does anyone have a legit record store set up? Like flip through tables? I'm moving this summer and want to leave my expedit and 7" bookshelf behind and build tables that I could flip through.

this is pretty cool. it still prefer the look of having a ton of records visible on an expedit shelf rather than hidden away.
