Whatever money my son gets from it will have no relevance to what I paid for it. It's all free money for him to enjoy.
I see that as a huge win/win for my collection.

I’m looking at it the same way. I do hope I’m making decisions now that will appreciate or at least still hold some value many years from now.
Just to add another wrinkle and make it more interesting I tell my family and friends not to worry about what’s in those boxes in the closet. If my health ever starts to fail everything will be hidden and everyone will get a list of clues and a map. Whoever finds it gets to keep it.
