My comic book collection got wrecked by a leaky pipe last month
I came home from work on a Tuesday and found water dripping from the ceiling right where I keep my long boxes. The pipe in the upstairs bathroom had a slow leak for probably 3 days before I noticed. I lost about 40 issues including a first printing of New Mutants #98 that I bought for $5 back in 2010. I managed to salvage maybe 60% with a dehumidifier and some careful drying, but the rest are basically trash now. Has anyone else had their collection damaged by something like this? I'm thinking about switching to plastic bins but not sure if that's better for storing comics.

Same thing happened to my long boxes last year @cooper.reese, that water damage joke hits too close to home.
