Do you keep the boxes for most items you buy?

[aphex]

?

 

[nageov3t]

not really.

I might keep it for a week or two in case I need to return it, but long-term, I don't keep most boxes.

 

[Mayfriday0529]

Yes, i keep boxes for at least 1 month just in case. big items i sometimes keep it for longer period of time just in case i have to send it in for a problem or decide to resell it.

edit: it also depends on how important or expensive the item was.

 

[RossMAN]

Yes, I have boxes from 3 years ago

i have the packaging from my sony walkman bought 8 years ago overseas.

 

[yhelothar]

Yes.. I have it all stacked up in my closet 8ft high.
It looks like a mini warehouse in there.

 

[Schrodinger]

Keep everything.

Hell I have the original boxes all my NES games came in like 15 years ago.

 

[elbosco]

Yes.

 

[RossMAN]

Here I'll take a pic of ONE of our closets.

 

[Adica]

Only the original boxes for expensive things in case I need to return it.

 

[Kishan]

Lately I have started keeping boxes since I know I will get a higher resale value if I have the original retail box. Parents hate it though

 

[LordPhoenix]

Yes, but my dad THROWS THEM AWAY which PISSES me off because I always ship something and never have a box so he has to pay for a new box everytime i ship something (<--Dumbass...).

Get a Fedex account and you'll get free boxes.

But yeah, i pretty much throw everything away unless i can actually use it then and there.

 

[artikk]

Never, although I sometimes use them for something else like storage or decoration, maybe even recycling material.

 

[SithSolo1]

Yes, I am a uber packrat

Me too, makes it nice if you resell it on eBay though it's a lot easier to ship.

Depends on the item. I kept the box for my home theatre system.

It's yours for $99 shipped

 

[jadinolf]

Used to but if I still did I'd have to buy a building to keep them in.

 

[SSP]

Yes, but I recently threw away most of them. Except the ones I think might be useful in the future (PS2, digicam boxes etc).

 

[TitanDiddly]

Yes.
