I'm with you on this sentiment.  I don't care about the perceived monetary
value of a set.  I want the parts!  If they announced monorails coming back,
I wouldn't shed a tear about the money I spent on mine.  If they weren't
worth their cost... I wouldn't have bought them!

I am saddened by the recent news that they aren't likely to return.  All I
really want is some more straight tracks and a pair of switches...

Perhaps a fallout of this whole thing will be that the resale value of all
classic stuff drops because of the perceived possibility of their return.  Yay!
