Description

Collectibles are objects that people desire to possess because they are rare, unique, historically significant, or hold sentimental value. These items could include coins, stamps, and comic books, as well as toys, artwork, trading cards, and digital assets (NFTs). Collectibles are often characterized by nostalgia or investment prospects, and they are generally held in good condition, gaining value over time. They are purchased, sold, or even exchanged using different platforms such as auctions, online, and specialty stores.

The Collectibles market is set to show a growth rate of about 4.17% during the forecast period (2025-2033F). A combination of nostalgia, rising digitalization levels, increasing income levels, and a desire to own something tangible are major influencing factors, driving the collectibles market. Moreover, the younger generation, fascinated by the trends in social media and pop culture, is developing a higher interest in digital and physical collectibles, leading to the growth of the collectibles market worldwide.
  • Based on product type category, the market is segmented into coins & stamps, books & comics, arts, toys, and others. The other segment, which includes high-value items such as vintage cars, antiques, luxury watches, fine jewelry, and designer handbags, holds the maximum market share because such items are highly popular as investments, highly exclusive, and can keep their value over long periods of time. However, the coins & stamps segment is likely to experience a significant increase in the future due to the growing awareness of numismatics and philately as fields of knowledge and culture, coin and stamp collections are quite budget-friendly, allowing young generations to buy them to collect.
  • Based on sales channel category, the market is segmented into licensed collectible manufacturers, specialized collectibles marketplace, e-commerce portals, and offline retail and auction houses. Among these, the specialized collectibles marketplace holds the maximum market share in the global collectibles market. These marketplaces are aimed at niche markets, like sports memorabilia, trading cards, or vintage toys. They have a strong advantage in terms of specialized focus due to the ease of accessing shops digitally and safety in processing transactions, and are thus the channel of choice by serious collectors. However, the e-commerce portals segment is expected to witness the fastest growth in the coming years. The main reason behind the surge is the gradual shift of customer trust in the e-commerce retailers regarding the prices, discounts, and descriptions of collectibles listed on the portal.
  • For a better understanding of the adoption of collectibles, the market is analyzed based on its worldwide adoption in countries such as North America (U.S., Canada, and the Rest of North America), Europe (Germany, U.K., France, Spain, Italy, Rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (China, Japan, India, and the Rest of Asia-Pacific), and Rest of World. Among these, the North America region holds the highest market share, due to a combination of cultural, technological, and financial conditions. The presence of ultra-high net worth individuals, along with expanding desire to invest in alternative assets (like rare coins, vintage toys, sports memorabilia, and digital collectibles), is further driving the market. However, the Asia-Pacific collectibles market is rapidly expanding, driven by a blend of historical richness, rising affluence, and digital innovation.
  • Some major players running in the market include eBay Inc., Etsy, Inc., Heritage Auctions, Sotheby’s, Ruby Lane, Inc., StockX, Catawiki, Funko, Fanatics Holdings, Inc., and Pokémon (Nintendo).

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
