Not a millennial but I guess I did need to hear this

I'd have to find it first. I mean, it's probably here somewhere.

Millennial? Gen X'er here. I have the box for every piece of electronics or appliance, and I have an extremely limited amount of space. If you like to resell things when you no longer need them it really helps.

I have the boxes for any electronics still in my possession. This is because very rarely can you find information from the piece/part itself, and you need the box/manual that came with it.

This post is generally bad advice. If you throw everything away, you are at the mercy of a Google search for any information you may need.

The sole reason why I keep my boxes, is because some people won't buy your phone unless you also have the box with it. Otherwise they'll rightfully assume that you stole it from some random person and want to pawn it off.

No.

I usually use my phones until the battery has noticeably degraded, so there's no market for whatever remains. I have two phones lying on my desk as backup in case the migration to the respective new one doesn't work. It's been years since my last upgrade.

The boxes lie next to the phones. They're not even inside the box.

I have a large box in my garage labelled 'product boxes' that's full

Done! Now what do I do about the closet full of Amazon boxes?

I get a better deal if i resell it with his original box.

Hey. Those boxes are great for sewing notions.

I think I have every phone box since my original Galaxy Nexus in 2011. :(

Meh, I always sell my phones if I don't trade them in. Doesn't hurt to keep the tiny box it came in.

I threw out most all of mine. I say most because I found about 6 more in a box somewhere else and got stunlocked at the sight of them. The memory of throwing out the others... what have I done...?

I used mine as a door stop for my balcony door for years.

I'll need it for at least 2 years. If the phone dies I'll need to send it back for warranty.

You're not my dad!

They aren't built to last long enough to go back in the box, or is that just me disabling and destructing phones all about the place?

At this point I think my OG Droid box is almost a family heirloom.

Is this the OCD support group?

I used a cardboard once. This justify everything for ever

I'd say keep a few boxes for second hand shipping and storing things but otherwise just toss everythting. A single phone box is fine imo but more is pointless
