What headphones do you think are or will become collectibles and the price has nowhere to go but up?

I sold my mint K1000 a year or so ago for $4XX, now it's gone up to $800-1000.

Whatever ones stop being produced and aren't sold at Walmart, and of course limited edition runs.

My Jecklin Float will sell for twice what I paid for it now. Anythign can be an investment if you sit on head-fi all day telling the headphone lovers of the world how great it is. ;p

The W11JPN, W11LTD, W10VTG, W2002 and the W100 are steadily rising in value too. The HE60 might also rise in value due to rarity.

The HE60 has already had the big jump in price. It may or may not rise incrimentally form now on.

I see. How much do you think the HE60 is worth atm? If I had to pull a random number out of nothing, I'd say around $1k max. Then again, I have no clue

The whole Baby O package is worth $1.7-1.8k

 

[babyoh]

What was the original MSRP of the Baby O package? How about the HE60 alone?

All my headphones have thus far appreciated in value.

Milkpowder-The last Baby O/HEV70 combo I saw sold for a little over $2k.

Did u take inflation into account?

 

[facelvega]

Only the very rarest headphones ever seem to appreciate above original MSRP corrected for inflation. Even beloved classics of the midrange like the DT531 or I guess we can now say A250 only slowly approach their original asking price. However, a sly vintage purchase might still appreciate; five years ago, any of us could have grabbed a dozen K340 for what any one is worth now.
