Finishes that tend to hold better value over time Last viewed: 7 hours ago

I've been curious about this, are there any vintage finishes that tend to hold their value well more so than others? The obvious pick is BOP, but any others that come to mind? Let's assume equal condition for the sake of discussion.

I'm wondering how some of the sparkle wraps would fare against more unique wraps. My general thought is that wraps that were offered by various companies (i.e. sparkle wraps and a few others that overlapped various brands) may not do as well due to being more common. Just a thought, but not sure.

Green sparkle always commands a premium.

Champagne Sparkle. Not as rare as say, the galaxy stuff, but of much more value than the standard red, gold, silver, or blue sparkles...

And champagne looks good. I'm thinking WMP and even BDP may be considered more common, although both cool on their own. Been wondering about blue oyster...I keep thinking that's good since it's the next closest thing to black oyster.

I've come to the conclusion that get what makes YOU smile...when it's all said and done, no price tag will matter in the long run.
