I use 4 foot wide metal grid shelving units.  Right depth for short boxes, and fits 4 across perfectly, while leaving enough room to get them in and out easy on the top.

And as far as the 4k in 3yrs....while let's just say they arent all 'investment' comics.

I'm not sure how far I am from 10k, I'm guessing I have around 9k, I don't have them all inventoried yet.

I had around 5000 comics (in boxes) in three different closets around my house. I got rid of some, but still have around 2000-2500 - that's less than 10 full "long boxes," folks.

Congrats argus!

I'm closing in on 10,000. The last 5 years has been kinda slow for me, with the bulk of my collection coming in the 10 years prior to that, lots of investment stuff, but now I'm picking up speed again!

Congrat on 5000.  I started three years ago and just hit 5600.  I live in seatlle and boca raton fl so my collection is tough to manage if it wasnt for the site i would be screwed keeping track.

My wife some how knows when I buy so I give up on tryng to store them anyplace elses.

Any how congrats. 

do you bag and borad all your comics just wondering I have been, but seems pointless with some comics that aren't worth anything.
