I guess what I mean to ask is will the PA be worth more if I resold it in a fews years versus now (pretty much new condition)?
If you use it, it will definitely go down in resale value. If you put it away and don't use it, it's absolutely a gamble what its value would be. LV could always reissue it, killing the speculative hoarding plan.
This is one of the least expensive LVs in its time of production. If it were an expensive canvas bag to begin with, it might have relatively bright prospects in the resale market (example: Galliera). The basic pieces aren't going to perform the same.
