Product boxes: do you keep them?

[mushtafa]

It's not just me then! I keep all boxes for my PC/consoles/TV equipment etc etc, pretty much anything electrical, the box gets thrown in the loft.

yup, for reselling, posting, generally transporting if needed.
The retail boxes tend to be decent strength too.
Most of the PC's I've built I've managed to get most of the component boxes into the case box

I try to keep most of the boxes that I've received over the years, still got the boxes for my ZX Spectrum, Amiga 1200, Sega Megadrive etc.. I've literally run out of room though (almost to the point of being accused of being a hoarder).

When I built my PC back in june I kept most of the boxes although if I had duplicate boxes (e.g. GPU's etc...) I kept one & threw the other one out

I keep everything so shyster companies can't try to refuse a warranty because i couldn't return it in original packaging.

i keep it all, but just because it winds up the missus

This is where I go wrong, I tend to re-use cases too much. Guess I'll have to buy more cases in future, oh no!

No.

For me its a process:

1. Build new pc
2. Put boxes together in case box and into loft
3. Sell old PC as whole or in bits on ebay (Using boxes in loft from when I built it)
4. Throw away excess boxes from old build
5. Repeat
