cressida Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 If I go out I shall buy it and save it, first edition papers increase in value, actually I bought the last News of the World and saved it, never bought it before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murphy Jnr Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 That's 'innate'. It didn't sound right when I writ it but I couldn't be bothered to reach for the Collins conscise, thank you for that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anywebsite Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 If I go out I shall buy it and save it, first edition papers increase in value, actually I bought the last News of the World and saved it, never bought it before You could buy yourself a first edition Daily Star for £3 instead & save 33 years of waiting time for the price to go up. https://www.abebooks.co.uk/DAILY-STAR-NUMBER-1-BIRTHDAY-ISSUE/434937682/bd Value is based on scarcity, they will print a lot of them & a lot of people will save them, so they'll be totally worthless for a long time, or forever if you don't store it very carefully.

cressida Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 You could buy yourself a first edition Daily Star for £3 instead & save 34 years of waiting time for the price to go up. Really?

This is just so very true. And, unless you have an accurate crystal ball, you can never know what will still be popular / in demand in a few years, never mind three decades. Personally, I'd not bother with that rag - it'll not be worth anything in your lifetime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That way if only a few people buy it, it will go out of circulation quicker and reduce the time it takes for the value of a first print to rocket.
