What should I pay attention to when investing in antiques?
First, the selection of collections should be small and refined, and the amount of financial resources should be carried out. Investors should choose two or three as investment targets according to their personal interests. At the same time, you should also consider your own financial resources. If you are a novice, you may wish to choose a long-term and stable collection or start with a small boutique. Second, cultivate a certain appreciation ability. It is best to collect antiques before investing in antiques. Under the guidance of hobbies, concentrate on studying relevant materials, often attend auctions, visit antique exhibitions, and shuttle between antique shops and flea markets. If there is an opportunity, we might as well go deep into the backcountry and collectors' homes, accumulate experience in practice and constantly improve our appreciation level. Third, we should be psychologically prepared to "buy high-quality antiques at a certain price as long as they are worth the money". As long as it is a boutique, you can buy it boldly, otherwise you will miss the profit opportunity. Fourth, establish a sense of long-term investment. Antique investment is a long-term investment, and it can only be profitable if it is held for a long time. Five, properly keep the collection, keep it in the best condition. Sixth, correctly estimate the net investment value of the collection. In the meantime, we should fully consider the expenses paid for the purchase, storage and sale of the collection.
