Future resale value is irrelevant in a hypothetical situation though. Which card would you rather have? Don't worry about the fact that you would be spending $180K on it. That's not the point of the poll.

Edited to add: I guess what I'm saying is, if one of these two cards was going to be given to you and you couldn't sell it in your lifetime or profit from it at all, which would you rather have? Take all value out of it. I'm certainly not trying to start an argument or anything, just trying to simplify the hypothetical situation.
