I think it depends on the thickness of the trade, it's really only necessary for slim volumes of 100 pages or less.

I bag nothing, Jon Snow. Everything I purchase is meant to be dog-eared and well-worn by the time I'm through with it.

No. Trades and graphic novels get put on the bookshelf for easy access.

I don't bad my trades. They sit available on my shelf.

Singles I do... mainly because they come with bags and backing boards.

Yeah, I think it's odd to bag trades. I just put them on a shelf or in a longbox.

They just go on the shelf like the books they are.

I don't even make a point of bagging comic magazines any more, and I never boarded.

I never bag or board anything I buy new.

Threw away all the bags on my old comics two years ago, and never bag tpb's or hc's. I saved a couple of long boxes of space by disposing of bags and boards during the Great Purge of 2008.
