LEGO boxes question

[Alcarin]

Ok So we all heard/read about how to make sure your LEGO boxes for investing are kept safe, but I ha another issue. In my country, we get ''huge'' stickers on LEGO boxes, marking where the sets come from etc etc. Its about 3x3,5 cm sticker. Should we leave that intact or try to get it off and endanger damaging the box? If we should get it off, is there a way I am not aware of how to do it more elegantly than only hope not to damage ? Any ideas and answers welcomed!

I'd say leave them on because that kind of assures people that the set is bran new when you try to sell it again, and then you're not in any danger of ruining the box.

Sometimes you can get the stickers off by using a hair dryer, set it on medium heat start at one end and pull it real slow, and if there is any sticky residue left use Goo Gone.

Hair dryer is smart and Goo Gone gets the job done but you know "better safe than sorry" right?

THIS!!! A hair dryer can/will usually do the trick.

For me it depends on where the sticker is. Front of the box, I will try to remove it. Bottom of the box - like the TRU security sticker - I usually just leave it.

Yeah, they are in the back or in the bottom.

I would just leave it on there then if that's where the sticker is located.
