If the piece came with a history, it is documented in the file.
The current price that it would sell at today, lower end (for a minimum bid) is listed.
All is kept in a location accessible to my son, who has instructions on it's future.
This also helps in case of fire or theft.

I too do the same with my collection. I developed a specific software to help me keep track of my razors, including current values, pictures, history of branding, technical characteristics and so on.
I too wonder about the value of my collection even though I have no intention to sell any single piece. No way!
But it is however nice to have an idea of what you are having in your hand and use to shave your face.
