The sealed LP... what is the point?

As a collector of LP's, I have several sealed LP's. It occured to me that the real reason one has a sealed LP is to try and improve it's resale value. Now, I really think this practise is crazy... why, because I never get to listen to the music on the LP,or enjoy it for what it was meant to be; the next 'investor' never gets to do the same ( if he supposedly wants to keep his investment) and so the piece sits on the shelf collecting dust for who to finally enjoy?
Are you keeping sealed LP's for the next investor?

Xiekitchen: Good point. I received a Classic Records Led Zep that, while not warped, was obviously "dished".
It played alright (when clamped) but for this kind of money, I returned it for a clean copy.
