Holster value goes up because they are
more perishable...
They require more care... they rot, tear, rip, come unstitched, and are misused. They get used by re-enactors till they are worn out, they are often improperly handled and improperly stored...
Even conscientious owners sometimes put things on them that make them rot... just trying to preserve them. They are more fragile than the guns and that means they get used up faster.
fewer holsters holsters survive than do guns... the fewer the holsters, the more the surviving ones cost.
All the same factors goes for guns... but they just don't deteriorate at such a fast rate.
that's MY $0.02...
How about it you holster collectors... fess up!
