“A Luxury Collectible is an item whose monetary value is far more than its original sales value. In many ways, these products represent the status symbol of their owners/collectors. The excellent quality, rarity, and uniqueness of these products come with the highest price point, which is affordable to only a small group of the global population. The worth of these collectibles depends upon how many items are available and their overall condition”. It takes a collector a great deal of time to collect an item and store it in an appropriate atmosphere to avoid damage. This market caters to a wealthy population with creative designs and uniqueness since the cost is not the determining factor for them; they usually choose collectible products based on their paucity and eminence. Luxury collectibles can include fine art, coins, wine, classic cars, designer handbags, etc.
