Anybody else here that collects the boxes? I have saved all my iphone boxes from each model that has been released so far. I think it will be cool one day to look back at all of them and see how they changed, not to mention changed the cell phone industry.

Nope,

I only keep them around, so when I go to sell the phone at a later point, I have the package to stuff everything into it and mail it off to the new buyer.

Same here. I do have the small black box they send you a replacement phone in, though.

This thread is quickly becoming a casting call for a future episode of Hoarders.

those guys on hoarders just have a whole bunch of junk and oft make their living areas downright dangerous.

Apple fans will have old/classic apple gear cleaned up and restored to like new condition in glass cases on display, neat and tidy in a seperate room with bullet proof glass, lasers and all that.

Exactly. Its surprising how it noticeably this increases your selling price.
