A while back I had bought at a swapmeet some sealed product, some of which was Planechase. I used some of the sealed product as prizes for sealed events among my playgroup. One of the sealed items was not given away and recently given back to me, being Planechase Strike Force, from 2009.
Does anyone see this gaining in value and becoming a sought after collectible that has more value sealed than opened up? Or should I get the most out of it, and have some cards to use/trade off from the deck it comes with?
Some things to keep in mind:
1) I don't have anything else from Planechase, so it would be only a few planes.
2) My playgroup doesn't break out alternate play styles like Planechase or the like very often.
3) If I could use it as trade-bait, it would be preferred, but trading sealed product like this is a bit more difficult than singles (to bad Puca Trade doesn't have it set up for trading older sealed product)
Any suggestions to the best ways to trade this for singles would be appreciated. A Facebook group or other means would be cool. I just do not want to half the value of the Planechase, which if trading to a business will just cut the EBay value in half.
Last thought, in the trade section of this Marketplace, do others trade for sealed product like this? How would I go about attracting attention (outside of a thread like this)? Thanks for any info.
The sealed deck is absolutely worth more than the sum of its pieces. As far as how to actually trade it - I'd probably go with eBay, or a post on Facebook.

Well, eBay has several listed, and $80 shipped is the low. You're certainly not going to get more than that elsewhere. If you list lower, you may hit someone's price point, and you'll certainly get a wider audience. Don't discount it just because other people haven't managed to sell theirs.

A couple of years ago when I was really getting back into Magic, I was grabbing all of those decks I could find that weren't outrageously priced, mostly between eBay and Amazon. I think I averaged between $40-50 per Planechase deck in 2014, except for the 2009 Zombie one which was around $100 then. I see some Planechase sealed decks occasionally at GPs and keeping it sealed is definitely the best way to go. The only oddity was one of the decks was missing one plane and there was a duplicate Llanowar and because they were so old Wizards couldn't offer a replacement so I had to wait until Planechase anthology to get the missing planar card.
