I continue to be floored by how Leica, Hasselblad, etc. retain their sale value among the photo community. For something that is clearly (to me at least) totally reproducible by digital equipment, cumbersome to use, and expensive, it's like people are clamoring to buy the stuff out of sentiment.

Speaks a lot to the value of brand and emotion, doesn't it?

Note: if I could afford it, I'd buy myself a nice M6 and 903SWC...
