There is a blog that had images of BGGers collections. The owner accepts images.

Problem is, I can't remember the link. I'll check and update.

These pictures are old. My collection has grown by at least 30% since these were taken.








Even so, in my game group my collection is dwarfed by almost all my friends'.

We are talking several hundred to a thousand games here folks.

:surprise:

Here's a shot that captures a tiny portion of one man's collection:

Why do I cringe every time I see game boxes standing on end like that?

recently reorganized to be more "stacking" (of games with big boards anyway)

Couldn't get it all in one shot, so I stitched the 4 pics together.
I've never had an issue with board warping or any other negative effects of stacking the games vertically.
However, I've had my share of crushed boxes when stacking horizontally.
Vertical alignment is tons easier when pulling a game off the shelf as well.

This picture is about 2 years old and the cabinet is starting to
fill up, but I gotta tell you guys... no WAY my wife let my growing
collection stay anywhere visible in the house without a nice-looking
cabinet. Will likely need to start rotating or retiring games I
never play to storage in the next year or two, but that may be a
good thing

:laugh:

(2-foot deep for those curious, built out of modular
cabinets and installed by Home Depot, price: about 2500
out the door. VERY happy with the investment in my collection
and in my home.)

Well I like to think...sure they have hundreds of games...but they must have more than a few bad games they don't like...but keep them just to fill space.

It makes me feel better :meeple:

I won't vouch for the accuracy of this science... but I was told at a recent gathering that it is better to store your games in vertically. She said that this is immensely beneficial for vinyl records, which when laid flat, will inevitably warp. Of course, with all the air in the boxes and nothing pressing the boards flat against each other... who knows.
