Anyone know what B&M stores sell DVD racks?
I need the rack to hold about 200-300 DVDs. I've looked at stores online, but shipping to Hawaii (usually 2nd day UPS) is about $100-125, which is ridiculous. What local stores can I go to for DVD racks?

If you have any Best Buys, Wal-Marts, Circuit Cities, etc., they all have racks in various price ranges and capacities.
You might also check at a furniture store, I picked up a set of wood media shelves that are about 4 feet high, and 3 feet wide, for 20$ (on sale, but still...) The shelves are adjustable, of course, and I have the unit set up with 5 shelves counting the bottom one. I have video games in the top shelf, ~150 DVDs in the next 3 shelves (with room for another 15?) and video tapes on the bottom shelf, to be moved as I get more DVDs.

check out this baby.

That is if you want to pay this much. Also, if you have an Ultimate Electronics near you they sell them also. But I would order on line because shipping is free and you don't have to pay the sales tax.

Holds 152 DVDs. I got it at Walmart for 30 bucks. At that price, if you need more storage, getting two of them won't break the bank.
Edit-It's not clear from the picture, but you can fill all four shelves with DVDs. Why someone would put a vase on it is beyond me

BOLTZ
I would recommend the Boltz setup. I have a friend who has one set up and it is GREAT! Totally expandable, and looks great. I think that is what we are going to do.
BTW, I am totally jealous of some of your guy's DVD collection!!! We're growing our collection slowly, hopefully one day...

Yea it's not the best made rack, but what do you expect for a $30 walmart item? It's obviously not gonna be as nice as a $200+ Boltz one. For me, it works fine as I only have about 50 something discs and I find spending $200 on a rack insane for my budget.

The only problem that I see with the small one is that it's not very stable because of the smaller width, and I would hate it if my son or my pets were to inadvertently knock the rack down...other than that I think they are nice looking and very functional in many aspects...to me it give's it that industrial look. Probably because these are all over our manufacturing floor here at work.

The shelf I have is a wooden one that looks just like Scarecrow's. I feel that they are probably one of the best looking/sturdiest/most capacity shelves in the 20-30$ range...

Well, I went to Circuit City and Walmart a couple days ago, but didn't see anything I liked (all they had were these tall, skinny, "tower"-type deals that only held 70-80 DVDs). So I ended up ordering that Boltz one...mmm...can't wait to get it now.
