If you hold the inventory, there is still hope of a rebound. Eating the loss and taking a bath has got to be painful.
Given how unpredictable the collector's market is, investing for short-term swing collecting seems a high variance strategy. Only winning move would be to pick up the goods, stack them in the attic for 20 years, and see what got lucky. Anything else would be too much mental stress trying to monitor the present value.
