No matter what, as soon as you sell it, 1-2-3 years later the price for them goes up and up and up. Obviously you can't hoarde it forever that typically results in futile speculation.I'd say there are a few items that are not rare but are quite popular, kind of a benchmark for a collection. The availability of an orange B3 puts it in the realm of possibility for many more collectors than say a 1st print woodgrain or prepub R1. As such, there is a healthy competition for them. Much like a Deities and Demigods with Cthulhu and Melnibonean, it always fetches a good $40-$60 despite condition and that is for an item where there were ten's of thousands of them out there! There are dozens listed on eBay every day.I personally have sold 2 MINT in shrinkwrap (working on my 3rd and 4th!). I sold them in 1996 for $300 each, the price was skyrocketing at the time, double from just a year before. Now look at the prices, certainly $500 to $1000 depending on condition. Should I have waited? Should I have waited until 2525? If you want to sell just wait 'til the market is on the upswing and then sell. But don't look back.Futures Bright,Paul
