Are Redbooks more valuable with or without the price sticker?

I don't collect the Redbook, but I've always wondered if the original price sticker on the cover helps or hurts the value.

not sure, but some of mine have them, and some do not. I would think a sticker adds to the originality of the book.

edited to add:
a few i bought from ebay have insribed on inside front cover: I WAS STOLEN FROM "#####" library

Not sure either. No mention of it anywhere that I know of. I have all from the 8th Edition to present and I've always taken that off. I felt it was not required since it is posted in the rear of each edition. However, I'm wrong. That is the suggested retail price. I've never paid anywhere near that price so wish I knew what I paid for the ones way, way back.

I've always been concerned that the glue from the sticker damages the book cover. But it is indeed an original part of the book as shipped from the printer.
