Is the Rose Ballerine proving to be a more popular interior color over the red for a NF EB? I've got my sights on one but just can't decide on an interior color. I can't help but wonder if one will have better resale value over the other later should I decide to sell it. Thoughts?

I’d go with the red. I have one with the pink and it gets dirty really fast. I totally regret not getting the red interior lining.
I would never make my choice based on thinking about reselling. Choose what you like the most. I was set on getting the NF DE with rose ballerin but when i saw them in the store, i immediately chose the red. For me it was more classic and sophisticated. But that’s a very personal choice. 
I agree with the post above -- get what you're drawn to and not what you think might sell better. I hate pink, so there's no way I'd purchase the RB interior even if it had a track record of selling for hundreds more.
Honestly, I haven't really seen any price differentials in secondhand sales between the two colours when comparing the same bags (ie. if they are both the generation with the pochette included)...

I think moreso what will affect resale value is the condition it is in. So within that vein of thought, I'd pick the lining that is easiest to keep clean.
I would pick the red. I personally prefer a NF EB with red. It looks more classic and easier to maintain.
Definitely red. The ones pink isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.
I love my red Neverfull Ebene. Don’t regret it for one second. It’s classy and cannot be dressed up or down. Maybe this is me being silly, but I feel like the pink makes it look younger and less professional. Get the one YOUR eye is drawn to and don’t look back.
Probably pick red. It's more traditional (for resale purposes). The pink is a dirt magnet. It looks quite grubby after use and you'd have to keep it very clean to maximize profit if you re-sold.
As everyone else said, just get the one you like more. Red is classic so I'm sure it'll hold its value. There is also a big fan base for the rose ballerine so I'm sure it'll hold it's value well too. Personally I went for the rose ballerine because I like it better than the red.
Buy what you love and makes you smile everyday! For me it is Rose Ballerine!!! I‘m so tired of the classic red....and I sold one NF DA RB because of my Tahitienne and get the same as I paid for it.
I love mine with the red interior. I love how vibrant it is. The pink seems a little dull to me, I wish it was brighter.
I love my rose ballerine. I have both the red and pink. Red in my NF pm de and pink in my NF mm de 
As everyone says, red is classic. The pink is fun and summery to me. I love pink though. It reminds me of my childhood (Kirby - he’s in a super smash bros game. He eats everything lol)

I have had all colors of lining, sold all of them (except the RB) at greatest prices, one even higher than retail, the only RB didn't sell because I didn't put her up for sale 
and I agree with above, the darker color lining is the easiest to hide dirt, the light ones you better not using them or have a purse organizer in it.
the RB in DE & DA is the prettiest, prettier than the one in Mono
