I am looking for some affordable shelves
Has anyone had any experience with the Atlantic shelves that you get from most retail stores?

Re: I am looking for some affordable shelves
I have a bunch of model 3020. I bought the first few in stores, but the last one came from Amazon I think.
I happen to like the 'industrial' look and being able to make the shelves any size I need. The oldest of mine I think I've had for 10 years or so and been through several moves.

Re: I am looking for some affordable shelves
I went with the Atlantic Typhoon. Man, it looked pretty cheap before setting it up, but I ended up liking it when it was complete. My only complaint with it is that two of the slabs wobbled because the wooden pins were thinner than the holes. I kinda want another one, but it was the last one they had in stores. I just like how you can rotate it.Hobie-wan wrote:I have a bunch of model 3020. I bought the first few in stores, but the last one came from Amazon I think.

Re: I am looking for some affordable shelves
I bought these not long ago:
$35 from Amazon and holds about 280 DVDs. I'm quite happy with it, planning to order another this year.

Definitely worth the $35 I spent. I mean, they won't cook you breakfast or give you a massage, but they damn sure shelve a shitload of games competently.

Wow, they do look great. Can't beat $35 shipped. I wish they had a slightly taller version though. One or two (DVD) shelves higher would do.
Re: I am looking for some affordable shelves
Holy crap! Those are just what I need. I've been using these "deep" bookcase shelves that Walmart sells. They are big and bulky and I'm wasting tons of space by only having one row of games on each shelf.
But these ones from Amazon are a great price, Prime accepted, and will show all the games without double stacking or wasted space. I'm going to have to pick up a couple of these. Thanks for the heads up!
I kind of feel like an idiot for not checking out Amazon sooner. (I've just always went to Wal-Mart and bought another stupid book case when I'd run out of room. D'OH!)
