Will These Be Worth More In The future

basically i've got in mint condition the complete friends series 1-10 New York Skyline Editions. now i've seen the series 10 go alone for about 200 on ebay and one complete set like mine for 500. now why i am i asking this do you wonder, well basically l like the new smaller editions in the wardrobe holder and i need the space and i also like the R1 versions.

so my question is do i cash in now and maybe get about £300 min for them as they are OOP and especially series 10 is hard to get hold of , or do i wait longer and expect the friends fans to remenis about the good times and want the OOP sets ???

if i was you i'd sell it now and cash in while you can. i dont wish to generalise but i doubt very much that friends fans are like trekkies and want to buy collectable items no matter what the price.


sell um, buy something you do want.

I'd agree with Gary here. I would have thought when hi-def comes along you'll be able to put an awful lot on a disk (isn't the reason these go for so much beacause of the extras?)

I just can't see these holding value, I maybe wrong but if it were me I'd cash in soon!

i did sort of have in mind they wouldnt be that collectable it seemed like a mad rush to get the Series 10 since its been OOP and now its sort of died down. i could sell em get the wardrobe version and earn maybe £200 friends fans are definatly not as passionate as the trekkies

well yes as well as there now OOP so it makes them hard to get. plus for some reason series 1-9 of the skyline editions were regualry available but there was a very short suppy of series 10 and alot of people didnt complete set. if only id had know id have bought 10 copy's of the box set when i got it cheap id have made a pretty penny

Unfortunately, humans aren’t blessed with clairvoyance! Although, I suppose if all of us were then we’d never make a profit anyway!
