You mean just the boxes or the cards as well?
I usually save the boxes, but only when I get them. I most often just buy the cards on the bay from opened boxes.

sealed boxes you want that you've never had in your collection
(regardless of the price, if the trading card box fairy could grant you 10 boxes that you've never had, which would you go for )

Being only a Who card collector, I'm in the pleasant position of having one unopened box of each release by Cornerstone and Strictly Ink. I consider them to be part of my Master sets.
The Strictly Ink boxes are numbered, so I always aim to get a low or significant number. Does anyone else do this?
Sadly, no Who releases so far have offered an Archive Box, but that is certainly on my Wish List for the future!!

Not me, boxes are for opening.
I have fortunately been able to pick up boxes of the cards I collect because my collection is so narrow. Given my time again, I would probably add Buffy and some of the Star Wars cards and broaden my collection a bit. This would be my list:
- Marvel Masterpieces / Silver Age / Universe (not sure which, but I know there were a couple of really good ones in there) - Buffy 1/2/3 (get a chance of one of those really great autos) - Star Wars Heritage - LOTR Evolution (i got a few boxes at the time, but they are still nice) - Firefly - Serenity
