Do you Keep you *band* boxes

[chefwong]

It's getting warmer. Daylight Savings kicked in. Time for some Spring Cleanup / Spring Purging

I can't think of any electronic boxes I keep just short of the *current iPhone* box whenever it get's a rotation from old/new. The old ones lately I haven't bothered Swappa, etc and end up moving it within the -family-.

Been collecting bands and I have about 50 boxes that I'm going to throw out. I don't ever see myself flipping them ever. No compelling reason to sell it on 'bay, etc. Just ain't worth the time, effort or the -net-. Looking for a voice of reason. Any major compelling reason to keep them

In hindsight, I've trashed alot of my Audio boxes....and have regretted not flattening them and sticking them in the attic.

 

[iStorm]

No. They went into the trash as soon as I opened them.

 

[Apple_Robert]

If I don't think I will be returning the band or selling it to a forum member etc., I get rid of the band boxes.

 

[WeatherWeasel]

I just toss them behind my chair into the supply closet, some day I might actually clean it out so I can get in there.

 

[chefwong]

LOL. I have a small collection of doubles in the same size *bought them as a backup in case they got too sheeny*.
Eventually I think I will unload those now that I'm sorting the pile

 

[chefwong]

For this resellers in here.....OS, UV, Cargo etc empty boxes if u want to pay for shipping.
This offer will last till Friday, which is paper recycle day

 

[mikedis]

I keep the boxes for my rare bands. Anything somewhat common gets thrown out now.

 

[Sal09]

Yes for everything.

 

[nattK]

Regular boxes, yes. Hermès boxes, definitely not! Since they open by lifting up instead of through a side flap, the boxes double as nice storage for the bands for me.

 

[twanj]

I save the boxes in case I ever sell. I don't buy used bands without boxes.

 

[drewaz]

I save all of the boxes and keep the bands in them ... the only empty box is the one I took my current band out of.

 

[LFC2020]

Yep.

 

[Htsi]

Nah, don’t have any band boxes. They are fairly boring anyway. Even phone boxes I’ve thrown away because there’s nothing extra in them anymore.

 

[Cameront9]

I throw away third party bands. I keep first party bands (or anything Apple, actually).

 

[Mark Stone]

Not me. My original band was installed on my AWs5 when I bought it, and I never saw the box. Since then I've started using protective cases on the watch, which usually includes their own band.

 

[Diablo360]

Used to keep these things around, but started collecting too many of them so now they go in the trash

 

[chefwong]

Circling back. It's taken I think maybe 2 years since I started collecting and finally got my hands on a mint Hyper Grape with BOX. I purged all my boxes. I kept some of the more rarer ones but I wasn't planning to ever - sell- the bands, so off the boxes went.

This Hyper Grape is like a golden unicorn for me. Haven't come one in this condition till know.
And then I thought about this thread, since it also comes with the Box in which I will probably trash as well.
Just a thread brump

 

[Royksöpp]

Yes, and they’re taking up too much damn room!

 

[chipsandsalsa]

Just a couple of them. They're fun to keep!

 

[highdefjunkie]

I've pretty much kept all of my boxes. Why? I honestly have no idea! LOL

 

[highdefjunkie]

Just a couple of them. They're fun to keep!

WOW!!!!!

 

[EdMan]

I just threw all mine away. I had about 20 over a four year span.

You do not need the box to return it.

 

[bruinsrme]

I only keep the boxes I haven’t opened, 15 to date

 

[minik]

I keep mine
