Moving into a bigger place soon... (woo!)

Gonna have a 2 car garage with space to put some shelves... I wanna get some nice shelf racks that can handle the depth needed to store extra 19" CRTs or so on them... anybody have any recommendations for like a good 4 shelf rack or something similar? Preferably from somewhere I can order and have shipped to me.

Also going to store random pcbs and parts and stuff on them maybe. Just some decent sturdy shelves is what I"m after.
 
These are pricey, but the best things ever. Different sizes and heights. Check craigslist or something for used versions for best value:

Yep, this is what I use. Just wish I bought more than one when I found them for $15.

Depending on how much you'd like to spend, I have 5 of these lining the sides of the walled off single of my 2+1 garage:

They're very stable when unladen, but with even a moderate load on the bottom shelf they're rock solid. In store they're sold as singles and about 2x a year Costco runs coupons on them and they're down to, I think, $130 per unit.

I inherited 2x of these from my parents and I put 8x monitors on them without worry.

They're not as stable as the ones above when the floor is uneven, but I'm not overly concerned. I'm not sure if Costco sells them in store anymore though.

Ohhh these are nice looking. I also have a Lowes nearby and a Lowes card.

Ah these also look good!

Thanks for the suggestions. I might go with those from Lowes as they are a good budget buy and a nice size. :)
 
The muscle racks from Lowe's looks like what I purchased for parts. Heavy duty. Found online and had them shipped for about the same price.
