The Value of Xbox Collectibles
>> From xboxusersgroup.com:
[QUOTE]
Over the last half a decade I have been hording Xbox collectibles. All sorts of fun stuff, I have lanyards, faceplates, clothing, toys, cereal boxes, magazines and loads of games and swag. People sometimes criticize me and call me a junk collector or pack rat. But I really feel there is value in my collection. Each item individually may not have a lot of value but in the future as a set it could be worth a pretty penny.
I try to look at today's current trends. Look at the online auction value for some retro swag and games. It is amazing how much collectors will pay to get their hands on a piece of nostalgia. I've seen Mario underwear sell for 100$. This is why it is important you start collecting now while the memorabilia has no real collectors value. You have to forecast into the future. Remember that 20 years from now the kids who grew up with Xbox as their first system will see this stuff as must have nostalgia.
