Bit off topic but, do you think that pre season match badges will increase in value in later years becasue they dont have many badges produced or do you think that just becasue its a friendly no one cares.

Personally mate I don't think they do and only really hold value if they are official.... and even then it depends on who you have played.
I only collect them if the price is right and am not bothered if I miss out on any - many are simply ugly and it really ires me when some makers do 10 differently coloured badges for a pre season to get their sales up.
Just my thoughts...

anyone know if any were made for the Man Utd US tour this year?

... and regarding matchbadges holding their value I think it really does depend on the quality and the rarity. By their nature, most are often on small production runs so if the initial run gets sold out and put in collections, they often don't come on the market that much and hence you might get a decent price for them. However, I also have my fair share of matchbadges that I paid £3 or £4 at the time that now appear on ebay (and don't sell) for 99p!!

regarding mb's holding there value... like everything they depend on the collectability.... on EBay you'll often see poorly designed and poor quality going around in circles, however well made and rarely seen on EBay, certainly do hold there values.
