Arguably, glitches make the scarf less valuable ... paradoxically ... still collectible though
yes, some will always want the rare unusual edition , that goes to collectibility
but, regarding valuation ... only the cognoscenti know the stories of the glitches
everyone has read the internet blurbs about the REQUIRED accent grave and it is amazingly difficult to get Past those
an average reseller does not, so the unusual scarf might be more difficult to resell, without making a companion story about provenance
and imho, resellers are not very interested in reading long discourses about scarves, the profit margin is seldom enough to warrant their time reading, then archiving the discussion along the box ... and a hard copy discussion rarely fits into the box... very inconvenient ...
in the same fashion, estate sellers are rarely Interested in interminable provenance papers UNLESS the item will sell very high and warrant the time to read etc
Glitches on the oldies eg 1950s scarves are different, in that those routinely command in excess of $600 so more info is better, and the time to take care of the provenance info is worth it
