Record Money in Toys
It has long been suspected that there is a great deal of money to be made in iconic and vintage toys. Whist most of us were bashing our toy cars against walls or throwing are action men out of the window, there were a select few who kept their toys neatly in their boxes. 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.
Ted Bowers from the Antique Toys Society has also spoken about the rising price of old toys. He states that as machines take over more of the toy making work, there are less hand-made items entering the market that can gain value.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.The toy market will keep on growing in strength he suggests, and unlike other markets there are very rarely any dips.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
