At first I did think it strange that Diana's letters will be sold -- perhaps it does have something to do with the economic downturn.
But then it got me thinking -- wouldn't it be a waste to have something just sitting in a corner of your house gathering dust when it might really be valuable to someone else? I know of several people who sold things they received as inheritance after keeping it in their house for a while because these items were just sitting there collecting dust.
And it's not like she sold these letter immediately after Diana died -- she kept them as long as she could until it dawned on her that she won't have any "use" for them.
