Hello fellow collectors,

although I keep my games at fairly adequate environmental conditions
(smokefree, no direct sunlight, etc.) I notice that they are "working."
Some manuals have a sweet smell to them, even on those games that I
originally purchased and that were always kept under the conditions
above.

What I fear is that in the long run, say 20 or 30 years, the paper of
the manual and boxes will start to crumble due to the acid in it. I know
that there's now way to save the disks, but this really worries me. 

To make long things short, what do you do to prevent that? I already had
a look at what libraries do about that, but affording a vault in the
basement with a humidity and a temperature controller is a little beyond
my financial boundaries.

Marco
