Title: Poster Tubes
Post by: eatbrie on January 27, 2023, 02:35:46 PM

I have been buying those tubes from Bags Unlimited for years, but they stopped carrying/making them, which really sucks.  They were perfect for storage, holding 35 posters each (I use a plastic sleeve inside each tube to protect the posters from their surroundings.)

Anyhow, does anyone know where I can find these specific tubes today?  I'm assuming not, but it doesn't hurt to ask.

they are not tubes  thumbup
but i feel your pain - i hate it when supermarkets stop stocking a loved food, change is bad etc - if BagsUnlimited made them then i guess you could ask for a private order as cash is king (if they got them from a supplier then your problem is solved)

Okay, they're not tubes, great, thanks for the semantics, but beyond that, not a bad idea, thanks.  I was secretly hoping another collector would have sourced them elsewhere, but I think it's wishful thinking.  We all have different ways of storing our gears.

You don't give any specifics on them, but Uline carries a line of square tubes. Maybe they have something you can use?
