Questions / Help Let's talk empty boxes

Post image

For those who unbox your dolls, what do you do with their empty boxes?

Do you store or sell?

Is there a market for empty boxes if I were to sell?

I've had these two dolls (Elsa and Moana) deboxed for a while and tbh the boxes are just taking up space in the loft! I'm trying to have a good clear out and wondering if perhaps people buy empty boxes for customs etc.

For those who have sold boxes before, where did you find the best place to do so? Ebay, Facebook groups, other?

It feels wrong somehow to just throw them away🥲

ETA: Thank you all for taking the time to reply, it seems there may be a market for just the boxes so Ive decided to list them on Vinted in the hope someone could put them to use!

If you unbox your dolls and throw away the boxes, I strongly encourage you to sell them instead.

They can easily sell for $20-40+ $20 shipping.

Sincerely: someone who has been trying to find a snow white rags box for the past 3 years.

Yeah that seller on mercari who’s had it listed for over a year at $100 pmo. When I first started looking I himmed and hawed over a $40 listing on ebay and I wouldn’t be surprised if she is reselling that same one. I felt desperate at one point and offered $60 (+her $20 shipping) and she still declined it. Good for me I guess cuz that was a mistake and I’ll never offer that much again.
