- I don't know what your "cheap" criteria is, but I like the two Doxey
- bookcases I got from a chain here in NE called Lechmere. 6 ft x 4 ft(?)
- x 2ft. On sale for $50/each, normally $70. They are filled to the gills
- and look like they will hold up for a while. I had another for 3 years
- previous. They are pressboard or something, not like oak or whatever.
