Do you keep your boxes?

Those boxes are starting to ooze on to your bed. I don't want to know what you do with them during the night :p
 
Yeah, I keep everything usually to re-sell, and the case/monitor boxes to store/ship(usually the former) my computer over break... All the component boxes usually fit in the case box.
 
I used to keep all of mine but then i moved to Korea and had to get rid of them all, but, stuff that i have bought here, i still have those boxes
 
I keep the boxes, but they keep disappearing. I think my mom and sister might be throwing them away.
 
I keep all my boxes and then some. Usually, I'll collect random trash (normally our neighbors) whom are throwing away valuable shipping boxing material. Better than spending that extra $6 at UPS/FedEx/USPS. ;)

I just shove it all neatly in my basement's crawlspace. Sucks being tall since I have to crawl with a hunched back in there. Not to mention the random nails coming out of the walls. :eek:
 
Hell, I cant open my closet w/o a box falling out. My latest build, I put all the component boxes inside the case box. Except for a couple, Everything fit fine.
 
Yes I do, its kind of a proof of purchase kind of thing , like keeping around books, I get to show people and say , yeah I have that, or yeah I read that.

My Favorites are the Fallout boxes my Annihilator Geforce 2 box, Diamond Viper 770 and my Diablo 2 collectors edition box , I spent 80 bucks on it, most Ive ever spent on a game.
 
My boxes are in my closet. The receipts were in a folder, but they got lost when we moved last year (not that it matters, the only one I could actually USE was the Antec receipt when my power supply died. It has like a 3 year warranty and hasn't quite hit that yet.)
 
A couple weeks ago, I went through a storage closet and cleared out a bunch of boxes. At first I actually felt kinda bad as I piled them in a corner. It was a little like opening a time capsule. I almost quit, then shook my head and said out loud, "they're just a bunch of fucking boxes!" All guilt subsided and I tossed all of them; 32 total. :D
 
I keep every single box that I recieve when I order parts or build computers. They come in handy! But some of video card boxes that look really cool I usually display them if I have room anywhere lol..
 
I keep most everything box/book/accessory wise. Makes it a lot easier when I want to sell/store them later on in their life.
 
i only keep the small boxes, my favorite are the Thermalright boxes and Corsair PSU box, they are prefect for holding misc cables/pc parts.
 
I keep the boxes if they look really cool :) But for the most part I just use them to store things in because I'm a pack rat hahaha.
 
Ugh. I even hang onto the boxes that the components came in! Including the peanuts.
