  1. Hello thanks for your video I have a question because I just sold my laptop box but im worried because I forgot to remove serial number which I think is really important. Do you usually remove serial number stickers from boxes?

  2. I was feeling a bit down yesterday evening, but as I was driving home I stopped to pick up an aluminum can. I've slowly began collecting them, but I said to myself, "leave it better than you found it." Anyways, I love your content and your positivity is contagious. I went home with a smile.

  3. I would suggest you write out a comment before hand that outlines why you sell the boxes and keep it saved on your phone. Then if anyone writes a stupid comment you can just copy and paste your answer and not have to type one out every time. I have little cheat sheets like that in the notes on my phone and it makes listing on ebay go fast for me! Then you might not get as many people complaining and reporting you! 👍☺

  4. You're right on the ball Thub. I bought a reconditioned iPhone for my 11yr old daughter last Christmas and needed a box. I gladly paid a tenner for it.

  5. Excellent explanation video. I've been doing that for several years. Whenever I buy a new device I sell the box ASAP. The price is generally fairly high when they are new. Then if I sell it I will always purchase a used box for less than I sold the original one for because it's now an older model. But they always sell for much more with the box than without.

  6. I've started selling them. Recently sold a small console box for $35 plus shipping, and have some iphone boxes listed, see how they go. Large console boxes can be collapsed and sent flat packed, heaps cheaper here in Australia to post that way. I sold an Atari bundle in original box which was huge, but collapsed it and encased it all in strong cardboard to form a rigid/strong package. Buyer was happy. The special edition boxes do well, psp for example. Some of them are getting $60 or $65. Like you though, I avoid other product boxes
