Hi,

Firstly, without obis the resale value of a run of the mill mini (like these - there have been 3 releases and at least one reprint) is definitely less but not necessarily that much less (they are not worth that much anyway).

There has been a lot of debate (mostly in the Japanese Import CDs Yahoo Group) on the topic of "as a collector would I be better..."

I've summarised that to some degree (my slant on anyway) in the FAQs of this site (follow the link in this post).

In this case specifically, if I was in your position, if I came across the newer ones with obis at a bargain price I'd be tempted but otherwise I think I'd just hang to what I've got.

Sam.

Die cutting of the cover image or inserts is probably the most common technique employed to create gimmick covers. It's probably also in most cases the cheapest.

There are thousands of die cut covers. Here are a few of the more popular and best known releases.
