Boxing vinyls

[Brutus1968]

I will move to a new home in the next weeks, so I started to box all my beloved records. I used exactly the same boxes used to transfer them from Italy to Dublin 3 years ago and on each box I still have the reference of the artist names alphabetically sorted inside them. After a couple of hours I was a bit puzzled by the mismatch between the reference on the boxes and the actual names inside them: when I used the box that should have contained the last artists (ZZtop) the names inside had reached only the letter P... Now, I have bought new records in these 3 years, but after a quick calculation it came out that the excess was about 180 records ...
During the boxing the back of my brain also sent me subliminal messages like "...streaming...", "...liquid music...", "...internet..." but the rest of the brain refused to listen. So my collection will follow me even this time. All of them.

Where did you get the lovely units for the LPs?

Very neat indeed. Just like your head 😀

I bought those 2 columns in an ethnic furniture store years ago, when I was still living in Milan. I would need 2 more now at least...

It is definitely a step-up from your typical Ikea pack!

Hi Brutus. As I have the joy of moving 1500 or so lp's soon, I was wondering if you could tell me where you got those storage boxes from please. Thanks, Dave.

HI Dave,

I bought them in 2021 online from an Italian shop https://www.musicmaniashop.com/prodotto ... 3-giri-12/
Unfortunately I don't think they deliver abroad.
These are the dimensions:
inside: 330 x 330 x 150 mm
outside: 335 x 335 x 160 mm

Best of luck

Thank you Brutus. I should be able to find something similar. Cheers, Dave.

Hi Dave,

I don't know if I am still in time, but I found this French shop that is selling articles for records storage and transport.

I am actually looking for CD storage boxes: I have decided to rip part of my CD collection and move the original CDs in the attic. Selling them in a record shop is not an option: actual value is less than 1 euro. Maybe one day they will be re-evaluated.
