Gives a new meaning to shuttle grading ...floating discounts and definitely removes a lot of the gravity of the situation

Well, in my actual experience, comics stick to 4 mil mylars; ALWAYS bag and board comics in regular bag before using 4 mils, except for non-glossy comics.

The reason you use Mylars is so a polybag never touches your comic. If you want to put it in a 1 mil or 2 mil mylar first and then in a 4mil that's fine. But the way you're describing is a complete waste of money and will damage your comics more/quicker than the way I describe.

NEVER BAG YOUR COMIC IN A POLYBAG BEFORE PUTTING IT IN A MYLAR!

I find Mylar on Mylar to have a lot of friction/stickiness. What's the concern about poly-bags?

@EbaySeller - Polyethylene bags turn yellow and tend to stick to each other after a few years. They should probably be changed every 3 to 5 years. Mylar is more rigid, clearer, and more expensive, but will reportedly last for over 100 years.

Back in Australia I had thousands of comics. The expense every three years changing the poly bags was expensive. Sold most of the collection and now have about 600. All my books I put in mylar. One expense and I never have to change them. And I've never had a problem with them 👍

I completely agree. Like you mentioned, 1 mil or 2 mil mylar inside a 4 mil mylar is the way to do it, not poly bag in mylar.
