Selling a box
 
Just an empty box. Should I open it?

noobinsf 05-21-20 03:30 PM

How do I know it's really empty?

clubman 05-21-20 03:34 PM

Hey Pandora, if you open it and let the empty out, it won't be original.

What if it's half empty?

Do I get a partial refund?

Bianchi84 05-21-20 03:48 PM

I was trying to sell an opened box but potential buyer insisted that I close it.

I am an optimist..it may be half-full....:D

Any chance you could turn it inside out just so we’d know it's empty?

If you clicked on this thread and you are disappointed it’s not more substantial, here is a variant of the Monty Hall paradox for your calculating pleasure

Not sorry I clicked on this thread, I'll only be dissapointed if he opens the box.

How do I know that’s the original box?

If this is the box, sign me up. I need a lunch pail.

Boxes have a model number of what used to be in it, so buyers can reassure themselves that that model is no longer in there. Therefore it has to be original.

Goodwill has a safe for sale without a combination. I'm trying to decide if I want to buy it. :foo:

I'm not opening it. It's empty. Will be shipped flat to fit in envelope. May have to cut the sides to fit flat. If you want it shipped as a box, that will be extra, but shipping flat is the only way I can guarantee that the box is, in fact, empty

thanks, now we have a goal to achieve....i wonder if that can be boxed

squirtdad 05-21-20 06:11 PM

is it a box or just a bunch of cardbord that has been folded such that it may be a box or may not? is it a box if it is never assembled?

squirtdad 05-21-20 06:13 PM

to many unknowns and assumptions: is it cardboard, plastic, wood, steel, iron, bronze, tofu? more pictures please

branko_76 05-21-20 06:16 PM

I only see the front and top, how can I be sure it truly is a "box" ?
