Boxes!

I keep it all for resale.

 

The only box that I have ever thrown away was for a 2008 Mac Pro. I threw the box away about a year after I sold the computer. I didn't keep the computer too long, about a year.

Other than that, I have all the boxes for everything I currently own.

 

I keep all my boxes, since I resell all the Apple items. I even keep the boxes for most of the accessories

 

I keep all my Apple boxes, and I agree they look good! I don't keep them for resale though, it's just good for transport in case I move, especially since I have an iMac.

 

I keep all boxes for the same reasons as others: it increases resale value. My last iPhone I sold it without the box and inserts and it ended at least $20-$30 less. I just display them on bookcases as a sort of modern art until it's time to sell ^_^.

 

I keep all boxes for resell or gifting.

 

Tossed after the return period. Otherwise they'd take up closet space. Old devices handed down not sold.

 

Resales are faster and arguably higher priced with the original box. They take almost no room - I always keep them.

 

Never keep them. Usually Gazelle my old stuff

 

Ditto this

 

Like others I keep my boxes in case I want to resell the device later on.

 

Heh, I still have my 2006 MacBook Pro, iPod 3rd generation, iPod Video, and iPhone 2G boxes in clear sight, I'm THAT bad.

We keep our boxes for no reason in particular. I dunno, would you want someone to see those things in a trashcan outside your house? I don't think I would.

 

I don't have a lot of space in my condo apartment and so at times have had to reluctantly discard larger boxes once I've ensured that the item works just fine. I do still have my 2012 iMac box, though, and I have the boxes for my iPads, iPhone and rMBP, as well as the boxes for the Apple watch (both the external box and the plastic box in which the watch was positioned). I use some of my older iPhone boxes for storage of small items, and I use an old iPad box for storage of some papers. Ditto for the box my first-gen MBA came in back in 2008. Works a treat for that purpose! I've either given away my older devices or I've sold them to Gamestop or Gazelle, neither of which needs the box as well. When the time comes to move in a few years, it will be good to have boxes for whatever my current devices are then, but I'll probably wind up having to discard some of the older boxes unless they're in use for something else or can be used during the move.

 

I kept all the boxes, not just Apple. I appreciated Apple product boxes more. They seem to spent a lot of time and money on making the box as impressive as the product inside the box.

 

Boxes? I have 'em all. For every Apple product that I've ever owned - except for my first Mac Mini back in 2004. Since then, I've kept them app - iMac, rMBP, Mini, iPads, iPhones, Airports, AppleTVs, Watch, keyboards, mice...

 

I keep all boxes. I still have my iPhone 4 box, all the way to 6S.

 

1. for resell purpose
2. when you get like 20, 30 apple boxes, you put them all together in some order, it's a piece of art itself.

 

I keep all my electronic device boxes . Mostly for resale, I also keep all the plastic wrapping etc and I'm fortunate to be able to sell to family and friends as they know they'll get a device that's fully packaged with accessories etc.

 

I just gave my brother my mini, with boxes for the mini, the Smart Case and the Smart Cover. Makes it feel almost new with the boxes. So yes I keep all of them for reselling which has mostly evolved into gifting.

 

Always! This goes a long way if and when you resell as many others have said! I find sometimes one of the first things I am asked is "Does it come with the original packaging?" YES it does!
