One other thing, RE: Value. I look at model collecting as a value prop that if I decide to sell a model, I break even. Breaking even is a real win here, some up, some slightly down, but in the end if you can break even I think you're doing great. This also means finding a deal once in a while if you can. None of these are for investment unless you're a scalper in the Hot Wheels world, or specialty diecast.
