Do you keep all your boxes from purchases?

Do you? I often lose the insides of the box which makes the box literally useless because I can't just throw the item back in there and ship it out without the proper padding that was once in there.

Either I lose the inside (someone throws it away) or it breaks.

Where do you store all of your boxes and what not?

I saved boxes for my xbox, comp case, proc, vid card, and i store it in my basement. Although i do throw away the padding, which makes hte boxes pretty useless... :confused:

I used to but I have 4 computers (all built here) and saving them got to be overpowering.

I have all the boxes for everything I buy. Up until recently, I had all the stuff that came inside the boxes but when I reorganized my closet where most of the boxes were, I threw out all the stuff inside and broke down the boxes. When I get around to cleaning underneath my bed, I'm going to get one of those storage boxes and put as many boxes in it that I can fit.

Generally not. If I did, I'd be up to my eyeballs in boxes here in my apartment.

I keep boxes for my computer equipment (insides too) as I usually end up eBaying them after I upgrade.

I keep them if it's something I might conceivably sell at some point. Otherwise it goes in the trash after a few weeks.
