soft drink/beverage collectors

Does anyone here collect drinks? I have been wondering if drinks are more valuable opened, cleaned and empty or left unopened and in tact... I kind of think closed would be the answer but also I know that with time pressure and time the liquid in the can will evaporate, but since I do not collect soft drinks I have been wondering about this all week long

I hope someone knows this answer or can point .me in the right direction to some sources on the subject.

I actually still have a Padme Pepsi (I think) can from Phantom Menace. I intend on picking up some of the Dita Von Teese Perrier bottles one of these days.

I'm deciding if I want a full case or just a few bottles of the wine with a Sylvia Ji illustration.

To your question, I would assume that the cans or bottles are best kept unopened.

The older the bottle and design the better but I 'm talking about 50 + years ago and still sealed would be a bonus and it also depends on the type of glass used to make that bottle, sorry plastic or cans really don't count

darth maul is appropriately creepy, but not really in the right way.

I still have a sealed bottle of Romulan Ale I got from the Star Trek Experience in Las Vegas years ago. I wonder if it improves with age?

It will if it is stored properly in a climate controlled room and turned once a QTR, Yes, but Romulin Ale based on Star Trek is suppose to make you forget what Planet your on anyway.
