| So outside of the obvious (damaged, yellowed, bends, tears, etc) how often if ever do you replace your bags and boards? I think I've heard they're good for 5 years? Unless I'm totally making that up. Also do you differentiate between modern silver and gold? |

| Slowly switching over to Gerber Mylites2 with Fullbacks. Then you are done and never have to replace. | ||

| I am also using more Mylite2 with full and half backs on a lot of my books. They just look so much better with much better protection too.I use the 775M2 Silver/Gold for all my Silver and Gold age books and the 725M2 Standard size for everything else from Bronze to modern books. This allows a nice reveal around the book but a firm fit. | ||

| Mylite+ and half backs for most. Mylite 2 with full back for collectible. Second @BrianGreensnips re Silver/ Golden vs Standard. Never have to change them again. In the long run better preservation and cheaper time and money wise. | ||

| I use silver/golden age mylite 2 with full back for everything. Buy in bulk directly. Looks amazing for one and protects books perfectly. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by vacabocaYou will like the Silver/Gold size especially with the Silver age. I used to use the Standard size for Silver age but I really like the fit better with the Silver/Gold size. |

Quote:Originally Posted by Jason_hendon Might seem like a dumb question but how do you buy from Gerber directly? I see no online option on their website. |

Quote:Originally Posted by tonnage71 I think you have to order by phone. Minimum order of $100, if I am not mistaken. Well worth it. Great stuff and the woman taking orders is very pleasant.  |

| @tonnage71 have to call them and place an order. It’s quite simple but I wish they had a way from the website. Would definitely be faster http://www.egerber.com/catalog.asp They have prices on bags/boards also shipping. |
