Shit can or Save
Being kind of anal plus believing having the box something came in adds value to a potential buyer if they are looking at 2 of the same item with different asking prices.
SO i can make more storage room IF i shit can all the boxes firearms came in. Save or throw em out ?

I keep them all in case I want to sell them later.

I try and keep them in case I need to send them back for warranty work also.

Depends on what it is, how much it cost and what the likelihood of me selling in the future. In most cases I keep them.

I just about skinned my wife with a deer antler when she tossed the box my Savage BVSS came in.

I keep the boxes for pistols, but rifle boxes usually get the UPC plackard cut out and the rest goes in the dumpster
...though if I bought it and didn't have it built, I know in about 2 months if I made a bad choice. If I have something more than 2 months I am probably not parting ways with it

I ALWAYS keep all the original boxes and even the shipping sleeves. If you can spare the room, KEEP THEM!!!!!!!
I would tape them back up and sell whatever came in them as "NIB". Maybe put some weight in there or something.

Girlscouts? Hmmm, I don't know... I think it's kinda dangerous to teach young girls self esteem and leadership skills.
I keep certain boxes that are oddball sizes (laptop, rifle case, etc.) for awhile until the item that came in them is way past warranty. The rest I throw out. I have had to throw a lot out since downsizing unfortunately.

Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles. --Jeff Cooper"
