The "value" is strictly in the individual collector's perception. And conversely how strong of a grass-roots network exists bidding against the collectors. For example, there is one collector who shall we say is a "man with very deep pockets" who will stop at nothing to be the highest bidder on badges of certain NPC organizations. If there weren't people like that out there competing against the GLO members who's hearts break everytime a non-member takes posession of what is nothing more to them than another piece of jewelry, then the prices would not go so high.

Yeah, every one of those collectors would love to slam me for being mushy about it too, but unless you're on this side, you just don't get it. And that's too bad.
