Vertical or Horizontal? (vlemmy.net)

I always see pictures of people's collections with boxes stored vertically on their edge. Looks nice, but when I do this the pieces inside tend to get jumbled around.

What's the general consensus on the best way to arrange boxes on the shelf?

The problem with horizontal is that the cardboard of the boxes on the bottom of the piles will eventually bend and tear over time. Permanent damage is worse than jumbled components so I think the concensus is vertical is best.
