I meant books that you imagine will have a certain value, for example. Rare books, first editions, especially pretty bindings.
Ah, if it was a book I loved I might well do that but not because of the value just that it would be nice to have the best copy I can of it. I've done that with Sherlock Holmes - I had the stories spread over three cheap paperback editions but have upgraded to a single really nice hardback edition, I don't care if by some strange quirk of fate if it has less vlaue though
Yes, that is what I do.
I suppose there is a reason why certain types of books are more expensive or have greater value.

I don't hoard books, they just have a tendency to end up in my presence.

As of now, I still have room on my bookshelf so I don't need to get rid of anything.

I wouldn't say I collect books for collection's sake, but I don't get rid of them either
