sorting storage for stickered parts.

WESTIEKaTH

I am a small store with limited storage but my worst problem are my stickered parts for which I have quite a few.
Anyone suggest ideas for storage please. When i have orders for parts it is taking me ages to find them
I do not (unfortunately) have room for another set of drawers and my husband is refusing point blank (which i think is selfish) of building an extension for me
Anyone suggest any ideas please?

Get a new husband?

I've seen quite a few people use the large baseplates (32x32) and put the stickered parts on there (only works with tiles though).

I haven't really got any better ideas. I've split my stickered parts into different trays (bricks/tiles/slopes/panels/everything else), and inside each tray the smallest parts are kept separate.

You could always set them aside and when you get enough put them on Ebay as a lot. I don't know how much interest such a lot would garner but then again, I don't know how much interest there is in stickered parts here on BO. I've never offered any for sale so I don't know.

This is what I use my 'too scruffy to sell' baseplates for.

@hoddie I take sticker part listings on a case by case basis. There are some items where the average sold value is actually lower on the stickered item than the standard one, and others where the stickered price is 100% more than the plain, but the part sells 100 times more often in the plain part. In general I prefer to sell them as stickered if they are in good enough condition, as I don't like taking them out of the supply chain as they are only of finite availability compared to the normal parts.

I find stickered parts sell well. Decorated space parts l can’t get enough of them. So I would say that they are worth listing.

Have you considered small bead organizing containers? I did that early on until I'd grown enough to have numerous bins to start splitting them out between them. Such as https://www.amazon.com/Organizer-Dividers-Container-Adjustable-Accessories/dp/B08HLYD3GF/ref=sr_1_5?keywords=bead+box&qid=1690651222&sprefix=bead+box,aps,314&sr=8-5? And then be sure to split same base part over diff bins to make finding the right one easier.
