Please understand the collectables terms to know what to buy for Christmas
Limited Edition
It simply means that what you buy is limited in number or availability. Buying these products is the best for people who want unique products that no one or fewer people buy. The cost of these products is usually higher.
Cook Limit
This is a term commonly used for ceramic products such as plates, cups, etc. Companies limit the manufacture of a particular product by limiting its cook days. Firing days generally mean the days required for a ceramic product to mature through the application of heat. Which means that a product with shorter cook days would result in less of that product being manufactured. Therefore, it is a bit expensive and attracts collectors.
The other terminologies would include: annual edition and open edition. The annual edition is only being produced for a particular year and the open edition simply means that it is not limited. Artist Proof, No Reserve, Mint Boxed, New Boxed, Certificate of Authenticity, New Boxed, some other terminologies used when shopping for Christmas are no longer available.
Shop with confidence for Christmas collectibles
Before buying anything, be very clear in your head what you are buying and the seller from whom you are buying the product. You should also know the buyer's protection rights to be more secure.
Knowing your product would not only mean what you want to buy. However, it would include an idea of the prevailing prices in the market, the cost of delivery if any, the variety and design available for that particular product, other available comparative alternatives. A little clarity about the companies offering that product would be an added help.
