[QUOTE="sith-smith, post: 558959, member: 43"] I can't see vintage stuff maintaining its value in the long run. It's value largely lies in the connection our generation has with it and so we're prepared to pay to own. When we pass on, our nostalgic connection will not, so unless a later generation can find a powerful enough extrinsic value in it, its value can't possibly stay as high. They are churning out so much stuff and a lot of it is really cool. That will also distract younger/future generations from the old stuff, which, though it means a lot to us, is not really going to look so great in comparison. [/QUOTE]
