I kept my box of Nintendo 3DS LL since I bought it. After about five years I discovered that I could sell it for money. I listed it online asking for about $3.

Not too long a guy texted me and asked me if I still had it. I said sure, give me your address. I then asked my wife to ship it.

Wife said she had thrown it out a few days ago.

Guy said, "No worries, mate. It's alright if you don't have the outer box. It's actually the cardboard paper which holds up the box in shape I need."

Wife said the box was actually still in the drawer, but since I took the box out and also took out the cardboard paper for examination the other day, she threw out those cardboard paper but kept the box.
