>>46866566Reminder that the problem with a lot of collectables as an """investment""" is that they often have a time frame in which they are relevant to the community which covets them.
Remember pinball and arcade machines? They have rocketed in value in the last decade or so as Gen Xers have hit their 40's/50's, kids have left home and they want to relive their youth so they want one or 5 for the man cave. But give it 20-30 years with gen Xers dying off, do gen Y care about pinball? most wouldnt even know what one is.
This is happening with memorabilia from the Elvis era—boomers are dying out, gen X and beyond dont really have a connection to that era and so prices are falling and sales are diminishing.
You need to pick your time to cash out with these cards, if you leave it too late you might be left bagholding stuff that most people will not care any more. You're not a youngin anymore you boomer, the 90s kids are out, and the fortnite zoomers are coming in.
PS: Anyone wants to buy a stamp collection?
