In Reply to: Old STereophile Magazines...what to do with them? posted by popsy on February 4, 2010 at 13:04:56:
I almost hate to tell you guys this but remember this advice, old personal computer parts will be highly collectible very soon. I am serious, CPU chips are small, think of stamps, and they are being destroyed at a rapid rate for precious metal recycling. Anything, ANYTHING that was once common and had popular appeal but then becomes rare will appreciate in value; look at comic books, Coke memorabilia, baseball cards, etc... I can envision an antiques roadshow 15 years from now; with the auction house expert saying, Oh my! a complete collection of N.O.S. early Intel CPUs in their original antistatic cases this would bring 20,000 at auction. You may laugh now but mark my words time will prove me right.
