Lol,nice collection of boxes man. I don't save them,maybe I have some from my N7600GS graphic card,and from old motherboard AsRock P4V88+,keyboard,camera,some phones that I used....
I may keep a box for a week or two but when I get fed up with moving it about I bin it
I keep only high end stereo boxes and all flat screen boxes the rest I pitch after about six months after install. I too have a issue with throwing things out that could be of use later. I must have 300 computer cables of any and all types many date back to my original 286......scary !
Trouble is with boxes they take up so much room !
We have a shed full of boxes. Figured if we sold a computer, people might like the boxes the parts came in.
Just can't seem to find the time to clean, test an old comp and also having to find the correct boxes for it.
One day..............maybe.
I'm another that just keeps them until the warranty runs out, trouble is here I don't have the room to keep many, we don't have a garage.
I save my boxes till the warranty run out usually around a year OR till the wife yells at me
Funny thing is as many of these things go into a collectible/antique status the boxes in good condition become as valuable or more than the goods.
