Any way to make money off empty video game boxes?

I just finished going through my latest unit and I have approx. 200 EMPTY video game boxes. They are mostly PS2 and XBOX with the original titles and manuals still inside. Just wondering if there is a market to sell them before I chuck them in the dumpster.

You could market them as CD/DVD cases. I'm sure someone would want them if the price is right.

Or maybe you could use them as roof shingles on your shed.  ;)

Don't throw them away. Check ebay they sell.

Sell them on Ebay.

You can either sell them one by one or as a lot.

I have sold empty game cases for about 25 cents a piece, depending on the game. Some has even gone for $1.00 a case.

I usually sell them off as bulk. Something like 10 cases for $5.
