if you keep it all in good nick, it should have good resale value. it's hard to know in advance what you will and won't use - for me, i've thought about the lifestyle i live, and how much, to have ANY social life, i have to be out of town, which involves a fair bit of travel and time away from home - so we have to make sure we have all that is needed to make bub comfy when not at home with it's own bed and things. it would be a very rare day that i'd travel anywhere with bub and it wouldn't fall asleep, as everywhere i need to go (shops, family etc) are at least 20-30k's away, plus whatever time i spend at the shops or visiting...
