The historical importance of the old goods market in Mashhad

The difference between antique items and ordinary second-hand items

Duration: Usually, items that are more than 80 or 100 years old are classified as antiques. Of course, for some goods, such as rugs or books, this number may be different.
Quality of workmanship and artistry: An old plain earthenware jar may be worth less than a less old silver-plated vase. Artistic sophistication has a direct effect on the price of buying old and antique goods in Mashhad.
Rarity: The lower the quantity of an item, the higher its value. Mass-produced items, even if they are vintage, may not have much collectible value.
Brand and manufacturer: With watches, utensils, and even tools, the name of the manufacturer or factory is very important.

Lack of expertise: Many brokers do not have enough expertise in recognizing antiques and will buy your valuable item at the price of an ordinary second-hand item.
Multiple mediations: In the traditional market, the item changes hands several times before reaching the end consumer or collector. Every middleman makes a profit, and as a result, the money you get is very small.
Lack of security: Transporting valuables to the market and showing them to unknown people may bring security risks.
Unrealistic prices: In non-specialized markets buying old and antique items in Mashhad, prices are usually determined based on weight or appearance, not artistic value and Historical.
