Oh, I'm fully aware that my RPG books have small to no collector value. My decision to not mark my RPG books isn't because I want to try and sell them at some point down the line. I have no plans to sell the vast majority (at least until it becomes an issue of space). I just like to keep my books in as pristine condition as possible. I'm sure many others are the same way.

This. I don't really care for resale or collector's value, I just like to treat my things with respect. I don't like to damage my books, but if modifying them in some way would make them more useful, I'm ok with that. However, I'd rather do it in a way that could be undone were I to someday find the modification no longer useful.

I don't write my name on my books either, but were I to bring them somewhere where mixing of books might be an issue, I could possibly see myself writing my name in them.

Well, it depends. Most of my hobby books are unmarked- no name or highlighted passages. Heck, if I get a crease on a page I weep inside.

But I do put my name on some books, most notably army books for miniature wargames.

Yeah, weird huh? :-S
