timer Valued Member United States 129 Posts	Posted 05/17/2010 12:42 pm I was searching ebay for air-tites which I use for most of my higher end coins and saw a listing for "Tube-Tites"....tubes designed to fit various sizes of air-tites. I've been looking for a a better way to store my towers of air-tites...thought others may be interested. Here's the link to one of the listings: http://cgi.ebay.com/AIR-TITE-COIN-T...200472654499 Report this Post to the Staff

Tim Stroud Pillar of the Community United States 2661 Posts	Posted 05/17/2010 6:00 pm I would be a little concerned about these things. The tooling at the machine shop where I work comes in containers exactly like these and they smell really bad, chemically speaking. The red ends should be very soft which is a sign of PVC. They do look nice but I would advise to approach these with caution. Check the AIr-tite web sight and see if they sell something similar. Report this Post to the Staff

I ordered a combo to store ASE or similar size bullion. It included a U.S. Mint ASE tube and one of these special Air-Tite tubes. The included Air-Tite tube was not the big 2" diameter size needed for ASE, it was 1 3/4" which is fine for silver dollars. I re-checked the auction and 1 3/4" was noted and since I had 20 Air-Tites that size, I didn't complain or send it back because it was $5 total delivered. These are nice, heavy duty tubes. I would be careful when ordering but would recommend them to someone with dozens of Air-Tites floating around. ANA #R3154474 Report this Post to the Staff
