Man Classic
Collecting Old Could Make You A Rich Man!
Depending on your toy collection, you could be sitting on an absolute gold mine. Although the majority of us used toys for what they were and pretty much destroyed them, a few clever folk kept theirs in pristine condition. It could be argued that we enjoyed ourselves more, but as antique toy prices continue to rise, its the careful ones who are benefiting.
A record increase of 8% in toy prices at auction was seen last year according to toy valuation experts Vectis. Private sales aside, there was a massive $12 million spent at auction in 2008 on toys alone. According to Vectis the most expensive items to go under the hammer where Victorian rocking horses, vintage Hornby train sets and a couple of Georgian dolls houses. Those people selling the toys had most often inherited them from their great grandparents or found them hidden away in an attic or shed.
Another person who has noted the rise in toy sale prices is Sam Williams from the Toy Collectors Union. He argues that there is a serious lack of hand-crafted quality toys being made these days, and instead companies are opting for cheaper, mass-produced items.This means that the traditional products such as tin and wooden toys are becoming even rarer and thus more valuable. However, he does not suggest selling up just yet.In this growing market you should be patient as there is a great deal of upwards movement still to come.So the advice for now is hang on to those old rag dolls, Steiff bears and vintage toy car collection because there is more money to be made from them yet. Also, it’s worth checking the attic or the garage as you just might find a gem you didn’t know you had.
