Collectables

Collectables

21st century iconic consumables with a distinctly British heritage have never been more desirable, whether it’s cigarette cards, sticker books, dolls, action figures, sea shells or rocks, it seems collecting is in our blood.

For those who decide to trade in their collectable items, online market places are often the first port of call, with over one million items currently listed in the collectables category of one popular online auction site. And it’s not just the sort of things you’d expect either… there’s always a market for the more obscure objects: just recently a limited edition jar of Marmite changed hands for around £20!

So how do we distinguish between valuable items and junk at the back of the cupboard? Top TV presenter and collectables expert Jamie Breese has a wealth of experience turning knick knacks into notes and in this video he points out what you should be looking for.
