Firearms do very well... some for historical reasons, some for craftsmanship, many for functionality.. and prices continue to rise. Cheers, RickO

Of all the established collectibles markets that I follow, collectible guns seem to be the one thing that have NEVER had any significant downturn in values, overall.

@dcarr..... You are correct..... for the multiple decades I have been involved, prices continue to rise. Some slowly, some very quickly... however, they never have retreated. Cheers, RickO

Nasa Collectibles.. Esp. any flown item from the Apollo missions( many go for $100,000's)..

Also fliteline( gemini) and robbins flown medallions( Apollo and sts) from the space flights go for very big bucks and have increased a lot over the years

Coin boards baby!

They are attractive, historical, often very rare, and yet relatively cheap. Trust me, you wouldn't be here if it weren't for the invention of the coin board in 1934. Furthermore, there is little competition in the field although that seems to be changing over the years.

Screen used movie props are definitely an emerging market. Prices for certain items in the hobby have been skyrocketing in recent years.
