How about just throwing them away? I do, and it is glorious. Why care about value, if you plan to keep and display what you own? Now, if you change your mind a lot, and sell off things to buy more, then I understand. However, I?ll bet you guys could still throw away 75% of the boxes you know you will never need again. About once every 4 months or so, I go out to the garage and re-access what is worth keeping and what needs to be thrown out. Quote:

Believe me, I would love to. If it were newer, smaller items I wouldn't hesitate to toss it out. But we are talking Sideshow/Hot Toys/3rd Party MP scale transformers, etc. that are hundreds of dollars each. Their boxes are pieces of art in themselves for most, and their value goes down considerably if you don't have them to go with the figures, by at least 1/3. Hell, in many cases the boxes themselves are worth quite a bit. Plus a lot of these figures have a ton of accessories that I don't use with them, ergo needing the boxes to keep them safe and categorized. So yeah, putting them in Sterilites and stocking them away.
Yeah, some of those larger vehicle boxes can be quite valuable. Hot Toys/Bandia/Neca, some of the Haslab stuff. I sold a mobile command center box for a pretty penny last year. If I threw it out, I'd feel like I was throwing out $100's of dollar. Now, my wife's old futon double metal bed frame? THAT damn thing needs to get thrown out.....or taken to the recycling center.

Headache indeed.....or shin ache, as I'm constantly tripping over shit in my garage.

Nice. Yeah I'm not paying retail prices for this stuff anymore, unless it's something really amazing. I'm in more of a selling mood these days anyway, got too much shit. And I mean shit in the figurative sense, not literal.

I have alot of boxes too, from statues. I learned years ago when I wanted to sell several that not having the boxes SERIOUSLY decreases the value, so now I have a ton of empty boxes but I don't plan on letting go of them, so...I guess I could throw em out

Well....I did it. I caved. I went to my local Target looking for a voyager class Metalhawk. Right next to it is a TF Duke with Cycle. On clearance for $20.99. So yeah, I bought it. My first Classified. Technically my second, because I got a Commando Snake Eyes/Timber set free in a Threezero Storm Shadow auction, but I traded that in awhile ago.
Here we go down the rabbit hole. They had PP Officers for $16.99, but I didn't buy one. If they had had a TF Bazooka or Recondo, I probably would have. |
