I like to recap all my sets, I'm more interested in seeing if can get all my sets working more than I want them to look 100% original. I watch my vintage sets regularly and before I started recapping them I was taking apart sets I had already fixed for new repairs almost weekly. Although if I ever got a really rare set like a 15" roundie, or a pre-war b/w I might restuff the caps instead of just changing them. It is an interesting idea that there won't be anything left but recapped sets in 10-20 years or so, I would also think that only very new sets and the older sets from the early 70s and back will still be around, probably won't see many sets from the 80s, 90s or today.
