dubplates that i paid overall a lot more for?

   Hello,

Now i'd just like some opinions (importantly from producers) about how they feel about their dubs being sold on. What do people think the difference is between owning a dub from a producer that is now very rare and a 7" that is very rare? 

I have a number of UK dubplates going back to the early/mid 90s from some of the key producers at that time. I paid for them (some to be mixed specially for me), i paid for the DAT that they were recorded on to and i then paid to have them cut to acetate. No small investment in some cases. To parallel this i have picked up plenty of vinyl over the years, many times only spending a couple of quid. Now, the producers i got dubs from obviously got more money for the dub than they would have for a 7" or 12" i bought. 

So, based on some opinions on this board it seems ok to then sell on the rare vinyl i picked up, making me a lot of money for next to no outlay (with the producer getting nothing more) but not so with the dubplates that i paid overall a lot more for? 

Please help.

I didn't find the right solution from the internet.
