Uh small amount of weight?
Average weight for a CE guide is around 3 lbs or so
5 or 6 would be 15 - 18 pounds laid on something for an extended period of time
That is how I store guides when I don't display them but I fully realize it would likely cause some damage to the spine after time
If you do it right I suppose and have boxes large enough that you can lay them on top of each other while keeping the spines out of the way if that makes sense
I suppose I don't know for sure it would cause damage but it seems fairly likely to me
The main reason shelf wear happens is gravity over time mostly, weight over time
Fully expect same principle to apply to those in boxes
