Boxes

Hi,

Over the years I have kept most, but not all, of the original-equipment boxes that came with my gear.  With that being said, I recently upgraded my speakers and plan to re-sell my older speakers. 

Q - Do the original speaker-boxes have value to potential buyers (for retail outlets? for over-seas markets? other?)

Thanks in advance for any insight...

I keep every box my equipment comes in, even the small stuff like cables. Especially since I tend to change stuff frequently.

Just like owning a lawnmower, keeping equipment boxes stopped when we sold our home and moved to a condo. I am just not willing to use valuable square footage for something I may never need.

You should always keep the original packing even though it can be a pain to reserve the space.

Most  manufacturers pride themselves in supplying packing that will protect their products on multiple transits.  Martin Logan excepted whose packing for CLX Anniversaries fell apart after a few transits.

I keep all the packing except the ML which I had to trash.

Message to ML: you need to upgrade when packing $30k speakers.
