True that... I stopped collecting Wengers as well...I only get some if they really amazing: limited series, Onyx scales etc.They have too many models, too many variations and quirks to keep track of - they are way below quality-wise than Victorinox (I have about 50 Vics and 10 Wengers - while only 2 of the Vics had cracked scales, 7 of the Wengers do)... no spare parts.. and I realised they don't have the Vic magic that made me buy more and more...Also they sell for dirt-cheap nowadays and are just everywhere. Not only that, but the vastly superior Delement range replaced them...Another thing is Wenger never really did tons of Alox (Soldier excluded) and the really crazy collectors are into that. Probably truly valuable will remain the Giants and maybe some very rare, cool designs, but the rest will fade into oblivion.Another thing is Wenger struggled too much to be bold, modern and innovative (the external lock, the springless, self-sharpening scissors, the Evo scales etc.) and "modern and innovative" doesn't age well... a 1980 wooden abacus is collectible, a 1980 PC is scrap plastic...Cue the flame wars
