Scrabble Premier Edition

Here’s where the lines between taste and common sense blur the most in the Scrabble world. Would you rather buy this brand-new, or purchase a Franklin Mint Scrabble edition on eBay for about the same price?
On the face of it, there’s not a lot of difference in the actual wooden play table, but Franklin’s edition has 24 karat gold-plated tiles. Franklin’s retails for $$$, making it the better purchase by far.
Still, that said, a lot of customers at Amazon rated this item very highly and it’s easy to see why. This is a premium purchase. There are few to none on eBay and we don’t see any savings on that site. Our bet for long-term resale value is the Franklin Mint version, but if you find that too gaudy, then this one is a sure bet to hold its value if you look after it.
