[QUOTE="edd_jedi, post: 542671, member: 2"] To answer your question, I've been collecting for over 25 years now and [i]generally[/i] prices have steadily risen. However knowledge is power in this hobby, as there are things that have stalled or even fallen in price over the years, so you can't generalise and say all Star Wars collectables have risen rapidly in value. In fact I would hazard a guess that with inflation taken into account, a loose Yak Face is probably worth about the same now as it was in the 90s? The equivalent of £50-100 back then. And nobody really knows what will happen in the future. It's been widely publicised that Elvis memorabilia is dropping in value because of the age of the people who collected it (many are now passing away, and there is not a new generation buying it.) Star Wars will only continue to grow if current collectors and Disney continue to nurture the 'new breed.' Otherwise, it will die with us! [/QUOTE]
