How to Store Board Games -- Video

[Rotmostraedet]

And looooooooooooooooose all value??? STUPID IDEA!!

@Rotmostraedet More for parents than collectors.

Might be an ok idea. However, it would get pretty expensive for me to get a game saver box for the over 500 boardgames I have in my collection. I'll stick with just leaving them in their original box. :)

another terrible thing about this product is that it is plastic. this video would have served people and their games better by showing them how to repair and reinforce the boxes rather than how to replace them.

I have Game Savers and love them!!! I just wanted to mention that they come with labels pre-printed with the names of the games that will fit into the container. You just peel and stick the right label onto the front of the box.

They're a good concept, but (1) only really fit a very very few specific games, and (2) if you look at the money tray part for the monopoly-type box, they're shallower than the other compartments... meaning it does nothing to prevent everything from jumbling up.

I could actually make several other points, but if you actually try to use one of these, you'll quickly see.. good idea, bad execution.

Thanks for the input. We may have to revisit this review. You should sub us and let us know if you have opinions about other products we spotlight or review.

I personally like the Duct tape approach myself.

[devastaticon]

@dorotwhy yeah and much less wasteful

Great ideas. I use baggies all the time for game pieces too...

Those are awesome!! I need to get some for sure. LOL. However I wouldn't glue the box to the top of the Game Boxes. Instead I would glue a clear plastic sleeve to the top so I could change out the colorful game box as needed.

Kids grow fast and their idea of fun games changes so a plastic sleeve glued on top of the plastic storage boxes would be a better idea I think. =)

Just my two cents. When is Owen going to do another video? LOL. =)
