If I were super into driving games this could be cool as hell. The PC set up inside a box is just gross and I feel like most of the prep for using it is navigating your knees around the stalactites of cum hanging off the bottom of the desk

Wouldn't you just collect the boxes without ever opening them, then?

*stands in front of a shelves, row after row filled with gamer boxes*
*gently strokes ones* Ah, July 15, a great month.

Yeah I do :(

I still buy loose figures when I find them at flea markets because they are usually only a dollar or two and look better than a bunch of boxes being displayed.

A guy I went to school with has given up looking for a job in our field and is now leaning hard into unboxing vids, live blogging and all that poo poo. Not for games though, he's a Disney/Marvel fanboy.

He was always a little goofy, so it's hard to tell if his enthusiasm is sincere or if he's just acting right to get noticed by the right people.

he's prolly gonna end up getting way more money than all his peers hoping that a company/college/whatever is going to retire their staff and hire young people

Jesus loving christ, https://www.cratejoy.com/ is a monthly crate subscription service and they list over seven hundred different monthly crates that people can subscribe to, some costing over $100 every month. And they don't list all the monthly crate services out there, there's even more beyond these. This poo poo is loving insane.

Someone who owns a party/costume chain should make a monthly Halloween box and just stuff it fully of leftover bullshit that they couldn't sell for 75% off in November.

Where do leftover decorations usually go? A spooky dumpster?

What a persistent nightmare!
....but enough about my posts
yea like while gamer crates are dumb I see the appeal of monthly boxes. If they can snag a deal with a supplier to get a bunch of units for a low price, and you don't mind getting a little bit of a surprise (and as long as they don't make it impossible to unsubscribe if you decide their curation is poo poo) they can give everybody a deal and still make some profit everybody wins, and you get to try out products that you may not usually use and discover new things. Something like a model box would be cool... Or like small accessories or actual nice outfits (those services usually let you choose from several options so you don't get anything you don't want) I've actually considered getting one. Really it all comes down to how good they are at getting a good deal and picking their products and some don't seem to just have useless trinkets
