4. Dare I throw away the box?

   

   Discussion by durazno33 · April 2015 · Home› Everything else LEGO

   Does anyone ever feel guilty for throwing away Lego boxes, especially old ones? I have boxes or covers to these sets: -588 (1978) -6375 (1980) -6382 (1980) -6383 (1980) -6081 (1990) -6277 (1992) I just have a hard time throwing them away because there's always that "what if". What if the its valuable or what if someone…

 Like @oldtodd33 says, check out that thread. I would just add that however you clean them, hand wash printed or sticker-ed parts (and be careful not to rub off the printing on the sticker, I almost did that with a #6383 1x8 brick with the garage sticker)

   Also, while the buy MISB is an ok concept for new sets, I am not about to go pay for a MISB 6383 Public work center or a 6393 Big Rig Truck Stop, nor are many people. So I will need to resort to cleaning lego lots for the time being. That, and like someone noted above.. People can be REALLY gross with their stuff...

   Note: I couldn't find the rare new yellow 1x2 bricks with groove for a rolltop garage when I was taking the images. But I have them now... so although they're only shown by a pair of yellow 1x2 bricks in the images... the 2 rare groove bricks (only ever found in the USA only 6383 Public Works Set of 1981) are included in…

It depends, I have erred and put stickered brick into a wash bin and did not realize it until I was rubbing one brick to find out i was rubbing the garage sticker print of of the part for #6383... Needless to say if you do it, be careful drying it. I also have a feeling newer stickers may peel easier than the old…

    Getting #6377 for Christmas. Pretty much any LEGO moment around Christmas. Recently, it was getting all the Town and train sets in LEGO lots that I could not as a kid (like #1490, #6391, #6383, #6393, #7730). Main street reissue is nice, it allowed me to get a set I REALLY wanted as a kid, but could never get. I actually…
