Hey Pandas, What Item(s) Have You Held On To Since Childhood, Hoping They Would Increase In Value?

Have you jealously guarded a family treasure for years only to find out its fake or worthless? are you an obsessive collector of stuff you hope will pay for your retirement only to have it valued and be disappointed?

My Archie comics. But I highly doubt they're worth much and I didn't collect them to get rid of them one day.

I'll start. when i was a child i was a big fan of Planet of the Apes comics (i'm in UK). i saved every copy from issue one onward (in 1974) thinking that one day i would amass a fortune. I got pitied by an expert some years ago when i tried to get them valued. Today, issue one is worth around five pounds. the others...pennies. such a low valuation leads me to believe that everyone who reads this article also possesses a full collection of Planet of the apes comics. :)

Hey there, Pandas! My name is Diana (though some prefer to refer to me as Diane, Deanna, and even Liana sometimes), and I am a Community Post Moderator Lead for Bored Panda. As my position title states, I am one of the people (employed Pandas for bamboo) over here who work with the community side of things on this website to ensure all is well, and while at that, I also help various creators and artists get recognition for the incredible work they do by connecting them to a large worldwide audience. Other than that, outside of work, you can find me brewing a nice cup of coffee, making a pizza from scratch, or baking brownies. I also love traveling, concerts, and cats (heavy on that, because I am a cat mom).
