does anybody have a spare comic box for the Battle Action Force comics or know where i can get 1 or 2 at a reasonable price im only after one at the moment and the only ones i've seen online are only available in 5's or 10's at ridiculous prices, i dont have a comic store near me either which doesn't help

if anyone can has any im more than happy to pay the costs and postage, cheers.

Do you have a Forbidden Planet near where you live, Squad Leader?
You could try the manufacturer, but I imagine they only sell wholesale.

This ebayer has them, but only in sets of 10:

unfortunately i dont have anything like that near me, i have actually emailed this seller the other week and he pointed me towards his website which only had boxes available in 5's, i started to go through the procedure to checkout as the prices seemed ok i also added 50 or 100 backing cards, but when i finally got to the checkout VAT was added on and it was in the region of £45 for 5 boxes and backing cards which i thought was a lot of money for cardboard

They're not cheap, but they are worth every penny. I have 30 of them under my bed holding my 2000ADs. They'll last you a lifetime.
I wouldn't bother with backing cards personally, they take up a lot of box space. I also do three comics to a bag.

i use cardboard storage boxes from ikea - 3 quid for 5 i think. they are office type ones - square but diagnoally cut out towards the front if that makes sense?
