I just don't get the collector market.
Haven't you said that quite a few times already.

Ok, I'm going to have to say it, I don't get this.
Is this art?[/quote]
Having something that's rare and cool is worth a lot of money to some people. It's about as simple as that.
"Have you ever heard of Blair's 6AM?
"Yeah, it's the hottest sauce in the world"
"I own two bottles of that sauce"
That in and of itself is worth $ to some people. It's COOL to have one...much less an unopened one.
"I have the first one ever made". Same thing. That's cool to some people.
If you don't value rarity, you'll never understand.
It's the same reason I collect baseball cards (dating back to 1909 T-206 cards), and my friend collects rare cars. It's cool to have something rare.
