    It is for the same reason people buy Colt, Bushmaster, or Kimber. If it is a name brand then it must be good.

    I have a couple guns including a 70 series Colt Gold Cup that I have the original box for it but I wouldn't care if it were an AR-15 or hunting rifle.

    It must be a high capacity Pre-Ban box.

    Boy do I feel dumb. All this time I have just tossed them in the trash.

    Meh - those guys are just bidding based on the Colt name. An LMT box is just as good if you don't need the "hype".

    "The Box" is now up to $76.99 plus the the $11 shipping. This is without a doubt one of the most illogical things I have ever witnessed. In a recession, no less.

    This excess of stupidity makes Obama being elected seem brilliant. I am losing faith in humanity. If it tops $100, we are doomed.

    Should I have kept all of my boxes? No they are not Colt, but somebody had some Nornico I think AK box in good condition for sale on gunbroker for an ungodly amount of money. JUST A BOX! Oh well boxes take up to much space.
