      And earlier vintage boxes could go for $100-200. Always save your firearms boxes and weigh the lack of one in your price evaluation when buying used firearms.

        I'd toss those on eBay and test the waters.

          What's really stupid is the blue plastic cases that newer S&W pistols come in are selling for up to $50 on eBay, when they're $10 new on Smith-Wesson.com
          Never initiate force against another. That should be the underlying principle of your life. But should someone do violence to you, retaliate without hesitation, without reservation, without quarter, until you are sure that he will never wish to harm - or never be capable of harming - you or yours again.

            Would you know why they would want the box?
            For $200 I would sell my XD boxes, even with all fee and shipping, I think it's worth it to sell.
            they want a set match for their airsofts.

            a lot of airsoft players are somewhat collector, they have realistic looking airsoft pistols now want a matched real gun box with it.

              Man, I can't ever imagine splitting up a gun with the original box.
              But, you just might find some people out there that have purchased guns with no box and you have what they need. I'd say, nice find.
