its not really worth collecting. a board is a board. they can make more. whereas paintings are one-of-a-kind. and dont think im an art collector because of this :) i really do not understand art, especially modern art.

I wouldn't spend more than $15.00 for ANY chess set. I understand the romance of collecting but I don't have any urge to collect chess memorabilia. It has to be seen as an investment and, unlike a painting or an antique, it will probably never appreciate in value beyond the asking price.

the fact that anythings sells on ebay seems unreal to me--if I have $15 extra (never mind $15,000) it's going toward my mortgage or into the savings account.  If only there were a few more fiscally conservative people--we would avoid financial meltdowns and the like!
