Having the box will generally make it easier to sell a set later, and you
will generally get more for it.

I keep all the boxes for sets which I don't break down for parts to be sold.
I flatten all the boxes except the largest ones which don't flatten (I store
the smaller set boxes and inserts etc. in those). Currently I even save the
little plastic "neat parts" display trays (and the plastic sheet which
covers them). I'm inclined to ditch those however.

I can see myself at some point selling some of the sets (especially if bulk
purchasing really gives us all we need, there are some sets which I have
really only bought for a few parts).
