The values used to be up there, and then they all came tumbling down. I ended up just giving everything to a buddy who I used to play with. It was quite a collection actually! I started playing when Revised came out, and played (and spent) a lot until just after Visions.
I picked it up again a few years later between the Onslaught and Kamigawa sets, and then realised how cheap my super-rares had become. I had two Mox's, a few dual lands and a bunch of nice alpha and betas (such as birds of paradise, forcefield, mindwalk etc). You know, the good ones! I never quite got round to getting a lotus though, but I'm glad I didn't!
I guess it actually saved me money in the long run though, because when I picked it up 2nd time around I was buying booster boxes in the same way I was buying boosterpacks the first time 'round! If the value was still there, every cent would probably end up getting wasted on cards instead of carefully spending my money on drink, drugs and hookers.
