Most-Favorited Antiques and Collectibles: Etsy and eBay Trends

What antiques and collectibles are shoppers favoriting right now? In this episode, John breaks down the most-favorited items currently in his Etsy and eBay stores. We also revisit an experiment from a recent pottery episode, where we compared two pottery lots (one higher-priced stoneware group and one lower-priced Nippon lot) to see what's attracting favorites and what's actually beginning to sell. Along the way, we discuss popular categories including deluxe edition books, Fenton glass, cast iron toys, Pokémon cards, antique hand tools, and more. We also talk about why antique dealers and vintage resellers should regularly check their Etsy and eBay analytics to better understand buyer interest and shopping trends. Plus, stay tuned until the end for a real-world shipping story about getting an antique Coca-Cola cooler safely to its new owner. Proof that even large antiques can be shipped successfully!
