According to the UnivDatos, growing consumer interest in nostalgia and pop culture, increased disposable income among millennials and Gen Z, and the rise of digital platforms and marketplaces that simplify trading and authentication are the major factors driving the growth of the Collectibles market worldwide. As per their “Collectibles Market” report, the global market was valued at USD ~462.82 billion in 2024, growing at a CAGR of about 4.17% during the forecast period from 2025 - 2033 to reach USD billion by 2033. 

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 growing interest of consumers in vintage jewellery, vintage cars, and action figure collectibles

The growing interest of the young generation in collecting jewellery and vintage cars is driving the collectible market. Car collecting is a relatively young market compared to other collectibles such as fine art and antique furniture. Antique jewellery, as defined by the United States Customs Service, refers to pieces that are at least 100 years old. However, many jewellery dealers and collectors stretch the term to include the 1920s and 1930s, to show that the product is historical. This term applies to both fine and costume jewellery pieces, with the latter defined as jewellery made from non-precious materials. Furthermore, throughout the ages and across all cultures, humans have used jewellery to denote status. Today, jewellery, including rare watches/timepieces, has become a widely held collectible category. The key factors that always attract the attention of experienced collectors are quality and rarity. The audience for auctions is ever-expanding and fully globalized, with participants from over 100 countries. Collectors are beginning to understand what is really rare, thereby increasing their desire to find these items.

Growing Investments in Luxury items are driving the growth of the Collectibles Market

A luxury collectible is a rare, high-end, or limited-edition item of high value, either because of its craftsmanship, brand, historical significance, or exclusive nature. These are typically sought after by the extremely rich and wealthy due to their exclusivity and potential returns as an investment, as most of these luxury collectibles tend to continue growing spectacularly. Luxury collectibles have gained significant momentum in recent days, as the wealthiest individuals seek an additional investment to diversify their portfolio. Examples of such high-value items are rare watches, vintage cars, fine arts, exclusive wines, designed handbags, and limited-edition jewellery.

For instance, in June 2024, one rare limited edition watch was sold at auction by Sotheby’s at USD 5.4 million, as it is a timepiece of extraordinary quality, representing the pinnacle of Patek Philippe’s horological mastery.
