At the time, the Edsel was considered an ugly car. Horsecollar grille and all its mid fifties styling cues didn't fit the changing market of the late 50's. Today they are somewhat collectible but more for its shortcomings and mistakes in the market than any form of market success. They were also unreliable and seemed to need more repairs than other similar cars of that era.
Growing up I used to get an auto trader mag called auto round up. There was always one or two Edsels for sale for what seemed ridiculous money back then. Like most antique cars, the passing of time has made them more valuable. To my eye they just don't seem like a car that I would spend serious money on to be part of a collection.
