The general situation is this: If you throw away the box and paperwork you will almost certainly want it back later; If you keep it, you will never need it again. Same as carrying an umbrella and a rain coat will almost certainly cause it not to rain (and the contrapositive statement).
- dylan604 3y agoThere's a reciprocal relationship on the duration you've kept the original packaging and how quickly you will want it back after throwing it away.

- takinola 3y agoI used to have a bag full of chargers and cables for devices long departed. I kept them on the off chance that I would need one or the other. A few weeks ago, I realized that I had never once needed any of them over the decades. Feeling slightly ashamed of my tech hoarder tendencies, I threw them all in the recycling. Of course, no sooner had the recycling truck pulled away than one of my friends asked if anyone had a charger for an early 2000s model digital camera that I had. Apparently, these "vintage" cameras are all the rage now and her kid was looking to resurrect hers. It never fails!
