I had non of my pre-dark ages boxes when I finnaly emerged from my slumber.
When I started bying new sets I saved all the boxes on the attic.
Later I realized they take a lot of room so I decided to cut them up and store
them flat. All boxes that we're multiples were thrown, keeping only one of each.
So new sets means another cut and stored box, if it's not a multiple in which
case it goes straight to recycling.
I might go over them again sometime and scan the photos on them and recycle the
lot. I never look at them or do anything with them, they are a waste of space
really.
But then again, this is me and I buy for parts and don't intend to ever sell my
collection.
Best regards,
