Just curious for those who have purchased these boxes in the past how they hold up over time and if they're worth the investment? Are they durable and maybe made of the same material as the small gorge and philly boxes or do they end up turning into shoeboxes and falling apart? Just curious... i'm not materialistic but shoeboxes and custom cardboard boxes i make myself and cover in stickers only last so long lol...

    I'm familiar with the 2014 box.

    2014 is not a shoe box but it is a board box. My friend has one that he keeps the holiday singles in. Not a bunch of use, so not a lot of wear. The 2014 seems sturdy to me as well as the detailed photo of this one.

    Meaning no empty boxes?  I hope not as I bought the 2016 tour many many months ago without the Wrigley shows (had some money come my way).  Then I bought the Wrigley shows when they were released last month so I'd love to put them in the 2016 box.  Cmon nuggs sell some boxes - at least look at order history and offer to people who have purchased all 2016 shows :)

    Perhaps they are holding off on posting them for sale until after a certain time that the formal box sets have been for sale.

    Interior measurements are 8 3/4" x 5 1/8". I used to keep my singles in there until I bought a case at TMR.
