So the guy should save every piece of cardboard just because he MIGHT be able to sell it for a significant amount of cash?
Again, you have no idea of what the market will be like years from now. Shit like this was going for over a hundred bucks on ebay, boxed. Now it goes for nearly the same price as it does loose. This is how most toys and their values go, if they were ever valuable in the first place.
Again, ten years down the line, will something like this matter?
Probably not, just like with most things.
Will it be worth the effort of hauling around so many cardboard boxes that take up so much space? Only if your anxiety starts up at the thought of getting rid of that trash.
