Im not a consoymer collectorfag, this N64 controller I bought came with a box. i wanted a good condition one with a decent joystick but do not care for the box at all.
You can't sell just boxes on ebay anymore, and I feel like it would be a sin to bin it, so what the fuck do I do?
I'm probably gonna send it to my old bedroom in my mum's house and dig it up if I need extra resell value - but that's highly unlikely.
well?

the boxed wasn't much more expensive than the beaten-up loose controllers in the game store I was at, by the way.

If you're not a collectorfag then what are you going to do with the box? Play with it? Just throw it away and enjoy the nice controller.

>>6039137
rather give it to somebody who sees value in it, than throw it away.
right? like somebody bothered keeping the box around for ~20 years for me to just put it in the trash.
then again, its my fucking controller
hmm
maybe I'll ask around and see if anybody I know wants it, or maybe give it back to one of the workers at the game store, surely some reddit faggot there would want it in his star wars mancave

Not true. I see empty boxes all the time for SNES games.

I thought ebay cracked down on that since people were getting ripped off over PS4/Xbox (marked BOX ONLY) being sold at the same price as the actual consoles, and dumb parents were buying them for their kids for christmas without checking the title so ebay stepped in.
no?
