Well, I done broke down yesterday, and went out to that craft store I mentioned pondering over...Michael's. I found the storage box I wanted, but they were all a tad beat up and extremely dusty...obviously, an item not exactly flying off the shelf; and at $34.99, I could see why. Very pricey; but it was perfect for my Axis & Allies Miniatures infantry and small vehicles, so I knew it was worth the try. I used the 50% off coupon, and since they didn't have any that were "clean and unscuffed", the young woman gave me another 15% off for damaged goods! (I'm sure my charming personality had a lot to do with it, too!) So, I ended up paying $12 and change for it!!! Good deal! The fact that it's a little battleworn makes no nevermind to me, in the end. I spent almost 3 hours rearranging my infantry, artillery, and German small vehicles to it. Three quarters full, and I still have more to add, and it'll be all set (though, it's still going to be a tight squeeze).
Pictures will be posted in the Gaming Forum under the Axis & Allies storage thread, for anyone interested in seeing my acquisition!
