Great but first order arrived damaged

I ordered two, one arrived crushed, the other dented. Packing was so-so for boxes that are apparently rather fragile. Possibly crushed by a heavier box that arrived the same day... That said Adorama customer service was fantastic in ordering replacements.

Superb Quality

This is an exceptionally well made print storage box for archival photos. For anyone looking for a product along these lines, I could not recommend this one more enthusiastically. It is a very professional appearing product and well worth the cost.

Good archival storage

Nice looking boxes that present a good archival solution. Unfortunately, they were a bit banged up during shipping with some creases in the top. Hopefully they can cushion the corners a bit more...

Not Very Sturdy

I needed a pro looking box to ship photos to a gallery. It didn't hold up very well through the transportation process. and it was mailed in a larger box. kind of collapsed by the time I got it back. Just not built sturdy enough.
