Could someone see it and make me a possible target for a burglary or breaking and entering? What should I do?


Answer:
I don't think your neighbours would be jealous - after all who is to state that they don't have a 50 inch LCD or Plasma in their home. Most households have LCD's or Plasma's these days.

You are right to be cautious about throwing the box out. A discarded box can alert would-be thieves to a potential item to steal. Why not break the box down, cut it open and then fold it so that the inside is showing outside - thereby concealing the logo. You could then take it straight to a recycling bin.


Answer:
Well first and foremost, why are you keeping it? Any special reason?

If you're just a packrat, you need to write down everything important from the box, e.g. serial numbers, phone numbers, etc. Also make sure you've removed all manuals and then just throw it out. That way you don't have to worry about any consequences of throwing it out. If you're just keeping it as a prize then that's a real issue because that would be pretty materialistic of you. Finally, if this question is a joke then, “ha-ha”.


Answer:
YES your neighbors will become insanely jealous. Do NOT let this box be seen, lest ye face the consequences. There are many things you could do:

Option 1: Cover the box in blankets, use this as your new bed. It'll be cramped, and you can't have a girl over, but at least you'll sleep sound and secure.

Option 2: Change the shipping label to note a neighbor's address down the block. Also write “Not *your name*'s Gorgeous new Television,” just to be extra safe.

Option 3: Eat the box.

Option 4: Give me your address, and leave a key for me under the doormat. I’ll make sure the tv is safe and the box is removed discreetly.


Answer:
LOL, I thought I was the only one.

When I bought my first 50 inch plasma, I backed my vehicle into the garage so no one would see me unload the Television and my new surround sound system. My friend who helped me install it lived in an apartment at the time, so when we were finished, we loaded the broken down boxes into his car and he disposed of them at the dumpster in his complex.

When I bought my 32 inch LCD, I just broke down the box and disposed of it in the trash can.

If you are that paranoid, take it to a random apartment complex or business dumpster. Do it at night. No one will even notice


Answer:
It isn’t being paranoid…… it is smart thinking no matter what kind of neighborhood you live in. Someone could break in for only a 32″ TV. As others stated you rip up the box and hid it in other trash.

It is the same as bills. You rip them up and put diferent parts in different bags. Not paranoid as I actually know a guy who had his identity stolen by someone who stole his trash.


Answer:

Answer:
LCD and Plasma TVs used to indicate a persons “wealth”.

However, these days pretty much anyone buying or replacing a Television is getting an LCD or Plasma.

I doubt anyone will think you're rich enough to rob.


Answer:
I use the Richard Nixon approach (teenagers he was one of your former presidents) I shred and burn everything.

Answer:
Do you live in a shady neighborhood?

They probably won't get jealous of a 32'. Maybe if you had a 50'.


Answer:
Why would they be jealous? Its not a big tv. Just throw it out or burn it.
