    Random question: Do you keep your opened boxes/pack?

    Just wondering if anyone on here saves their boxes/packs after they open them, or just throw them away. I figure I should just throw mine away because the only stuff like that that's worth anything is vintage stuff, but I was curious to see what other people do. Thanks!

    Yes, I used to keep my packs that a pulled a GU or Auto from. Also, my first basketball box I ever bought I kept it, but I lost it when I moved. :( Oh well, I probably would have eventually thrown it out later.

    The only ones I still have left are from 93 Playoff. They were hard boxes and had good pictures on them. Jerome Bettis, Howie Long, Drew Bledsoe and few others I can't remember. That's it. No wrappers unless I hear of a redemption going on.

    i keep the packs. once i open the packs i put all the cards back in. unless of course there is a decent rookie or auto/gu in that case just the base go in. then on a rainy day (when i have no money to buy packs.) i open them up and see what i get. some times i get lucky and pull an insert lol or a rookie who is starting to take off.

    I usually throw them away. However, I do collect a few... for example I kept 1 of the 06 SP Legendary Cuts boxes because it featured Ty Cobb, and I kept 1 of the Ty Cobb pack wrappers.

    LMAO, good idea with the packs. Very funny. I do keep my boxes just because, but I will probably throw them away because they are just under my desk. And then when I look under there every so often, I remember the boxes and remember how crappy my pulls were from them.
