PEZ Dispensers: Prices Vary
Sugar fiends will be happy to learn that even that rusty, candy-free PEZ dispenser might be worth something someday. In 2006, a dispenser known as the Astronaut B, developed for the World’s Fair in 1982, became a major bank, selling on eBay for $32,000. Among other collectible dispensers are the Mickey Mouse Soft Head dispenser, the Santa Claus Head dispenser of 1955, and the PEZ weapon.

The Original Monopoly Game: $146,500
The original hand-drawn oilcloth version of Monopoly, produced in 1933 and owned by the game inventor Charles Darrow, was sold for $146,500 at Sotheby’s auction house in 2011, nearly double its estimated price. But, even though you don’t have such a rare version of this popular game, retro copies sold for $3,125 in the 1930s, and limited editions sold for hundreds on eBay.
