some auction houses show their sale results online,you could compare results to find which pieces are selling for big bucks also check the results on ebay's completed listings

it's all a matter of taste,you should probably ask a Troika fan and not a detractor though

BTW I like the very plain early white Troika - I'd collect that (if I could afford to!)
