I have been buying different coins from RCM for a few years now and I always pull them out of the box and put them in 2X2's and then in to a binder.
I collect Coins not Box's
My wife said I shouldn't do that as when I'm dead and she goes to sell everything it wont be worth as much ( she knows she will never be able to sell them while I'm here to stop her ;-)
So I have about a hundred or so "box's" that I've thrown in a big box out in the shop that I didn't know what to do with until today... when I seen a guy selling a $20 silver 20 for 20 coin in a Montreal Canadians Puck

I actually bought a box recently. I created/patched together a set of coins from the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta, GA, USA and needed a box for them. I also have a few boxes that I took coins out. And I received a coin order yesterday that had been stuck in a recycled box from a dealer. I might recycle a box for this year's Secret Santa

I bought a few US mint and proof sets simply for specific single coins. I have a few empty boxes and envelopes from them. I just hate to throw anything like that away. Hopefully someday someone can use them.
