Not just talking about monetary Value. I have a large collection of LLedo cars and a boat load of model railway stuff. I never think of the money, good job really

Money doesn't bring happiness. Only loads of money can do that.

No Volty money doesn' t buy happiness. But it buys a wonderful standard of misery.

It's not about value, it's nostalgia.

Which is a kind of sadness.
The Potuguese call it Fado.

Nostalgia's not what it was though is it.

I long for some good old fashioned nostalgia.

So do I, I remember Nostalgia well

I had some Fado in a box but now I can't find it.
If only I could remember what it was like.

It was probably made of cardboard and had a lid.

Oh I do so long for such a box.

Back up the truck... I've got quite a few. They have old watch parts in them and stamps and coins and all old nostalgic stuff. I'm so happy.

Jo has an abundance of both, Five Stieff's several other specials and loads of others. Shoes and Boots in a variety of colours too.
Thankfully we stopped buying bears long ago, it was costing too much in porridge.

I also have a Steiffie, I'm so happy.
