The business of collectables[edit] Created to be collected[edit] A "manufactured" collectable (often referred to as a contemporary collectable) is an item made specifically for people to collect. The terms special edition, limited edition and variants such as deluxe edition, collector's edition and others, fall under the category of manufactured collectable and are used as a marketing incentive for various kinds of products, originally published products related to the arts, such as books, prints or recorded music and films, but now including cars, fine wine and other collectables.
A limited edition is restricted in the number of copies produced, although in fact the number may be very low or very high.[5] A special edition implies there is extra material of some kind included. Collectables in commerce[edit] Collectables as investments[edit] Collectables are items of limited supply that are sought for a variety of reasons including a possible increase in value.
