They don't for sure, but it usually comes down to scarcety.

All the weird sixties and seventies stuff, that went out of fashion and a lot of people threw out when tastes changed, are a prime example. Troika pottery from Cornwall now proving thap point, and selling for a small fortune.

Even original coloured bathroom suites from the seventies are becoming sought after now that the fashion is for white.
