It does depend on the type of collector and the age of the disc. I personally quite like them as they tend to be rarer.
Newer Sample CDs tend to be easier to find, a lot of them go to reviewers and magazines and if they are not reviewed or use tend to get sold cheaply.
Older CDs (80s and early 90s) on the other hand sample copies are much less common as they tended to get binned.
For some CDs it might be the only way you might find a sealed version.
The sticker tends to put over the barcode or somewhere it doesn't cover text so it doesn't ruin it.
