I was going through my collection today and I have alot of books that aren't bagged. I stopped collecting about 5 years ago and I am a little out of the loop on what the best bags are and where to buy them at. I heard that mylar bags are good and would like to here other people's experience with them. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Go to any comic store. They sell bags specifically for comics. I think they are mylar. Anything they sell should be the best for storing comics. The only choice you have to make is the size of bags. There are bags that fit moden comics snuggly & then there are some that have a little bit of extra room.
I miss the Fun Yet bags. My LCS is selling some crappy super-thin bags and they curl up and just aren't substantial for my tactile senses to appreciate.

The best bags in my opinion are regular size Ultra Pro polypropylene bags stock #W-UPCBR. I use them with regular silver age boards and they give my books a tight fit as apposed to silver age bags that are about 1/4" to big.
I use Gerber Archives and Mylites 2 mylars and Half Backs and Full Backs for my higher $$$ comics

Fun-Yet current bags were the best bags I've used in all my years of collecting comics. They disappeared a few years ago and I really miss them. My LCS's selections of bags are horrible.
I've taken to online-ordering my bags from tcbulk.com and they aren't bad...but they're not as good as Fun-yet :(
