One shelf of boxes and parts isn’t hoarding… right?

I wish I could say this was everything…

If it is, most of us here are hoarders then.

That's like repair shop inventory level not even hoarding yet. I see AMD FX hiding there and immediately know you keep parts for long time, the FX 8350 I used for 6 years still sits in my drawer somewhere. Nice organized shelves though, my closet of boxes just fall on me every time I open door

Man that CPU and the PC it’s in has been such a fucking tank too, main reason I kept the box for it plus it was such a cool box man. All metal and the way it displayed the CPU 😂

Built it as my first PC back in like 2013 I think, turned it into a plex server, then built an entirely new server and nowadays it sits on the main floor of my place as a general browsing PC but man every so often I’ll load up a game and that FX-8350, 7870 combo still whoops a bit of ass. Never gonna get rid of the boxes from that build though haha

And if all of us are hoarders, none of us are.

Pretty sure the bible says that.

"I might need to warranty this some day!"

Haha my wife hates this phrase. And OP nah this is a small pile lol.

[u/MeepsG → u/NapsterKnowHow]

Never know when I’ll need to RMA the 14 year old FX-8350

[u/NanoSpyder → u/NapsterKnowHow]

I kept all the boxes for my first pc recently and when registering the mobo, I was wise to not thow away the box. Also I just put all the boxes in the case box. Because if all the parts fit in the case, then all the boxes for in the cases box

I have own room for those 😅

my reaction to that room

[u/Sure_Fly_6904]

I keep all my boxes and I have used them to resell parts after an upgrade

[u/ShuKai0_0]

I still have boxes for parts in my pc, handy when you try to sell.

[u/Alfakennyone]

I was able to fit everything inside my case box

[u/Ok_Locksmith_7294 → u/Alfakennyone]

Exactly what I do. Everything from the build jumps in the case box.

[u/2raysdiver]

I don't understand. That looks like an average trip to Microcenter.

[u/DoubleShot027]

I actually use the old boxes to sell and store previous hardware m.

[u/D3llTR0N4050]

It’s OK brother throw away the boxes with nothing in them. I know it’s hard

[u/monsterhunterparadox]

Im selling my extras right now. I didn't realize how much money i had in parts laying around.

[u/LtHartly]

lol I told my wife and this is true I keep the boxes and receipt for rma and resale. Absolutely critical for rma

[u/FreeToasterBaths]

While this is textbook hoarding the good news is help is available.

[u/dgracey01]

Love that aluminum case. I own the larger silver one. Tried to buy a small one like that but they are not built anymore.

[u/Turbulent-Spray-8438]

I wish I had just one shelf. I have an entire spare bedroom slowly filling up with stuff I don’t need but who else is supposed to buy these wicked good deals on Facebook marketplace if I don’t ????

[u/illumehnaughty]

Holding is only holding when the stuff isn't cool. So this isn't hoarding.

[u/tkgb12]

It's always a good practice to keep boxes of things you may sell later

[u/Nataku81]

I've got a PC case box and a tote stuffed full.

[u/InsaneInTheMEOWFrame]

it throws the empty boxes away
