My Guide To Poly Bags and Protecting Your Collection

[Gemini-Phoenix]

I typically use the resealable food bags from Tesco. They're a nice thickness, and protect from dust as well as general handling scuffs. They come in three sizes (Small, Medium, and Large), although the L ones are getting more difficult to get hold of - At least in my local store where I think they've been discontinued

The Small size ones are ideal for Blu-Ray sized items. There's a bit of wasted space, but generally I use these for all of my Blu-Ray SteelBooks and PS3 CE's.

The Medium size ones are a bit of an awkward fit, but with a little folding they can be used for anything Dvd sized. I also use these ones for the smaller CE's such as Gears Of War 1&2, Mass Effect CE's, Dvd sized SteelBooks - Basically anything which fits on a shelf with regular Dvd sized items.

The Large ones are great for the majority of everything else, such as the recent Prototype 2 Blackwatch Edition, or Catherine Stray Sheep Edition etc. They're also good for the majority of Dvd / Blu-Ray CE's, and I also use them for larger box sets


These poly bags are ideal for preventing the shrinkwrap on my sealed items from getting accidentally ripped, and also protects them from any moisture which may be in the air (if you live somewhere humid)
