Grouped by asset family.
No market by that name. Try the family or A–Z views, or ask for one.
Daily valuation, exit in days, standard custody.
Regular pricing and an established route, with one material limit.
Expert appraisal, exit over months, real custody cost.
Contested valuation, uncertain exit, heavy title burden.
Cannot be held; no practical route identified.
What exists, who has it, and what it costs to bring out.
Five: supply is fixed or shrinking; nothing more can be made.
Whether a standard unit can be sold, to whom, at a knowable price.
Five: a standard unit sells within days at a small spread.
Whether supply can respond to price, and over what horizon.
Five: no price makes more of it; the top tier is counted in hundreds.
Whether the thing is what the label says, and who verifies it.
Five: title and authenticity are registered or beyond practical dispute.
Supply divides the family, from lab-grown made to order to depleting jade and gem deposits; provenance is its weakness, with treatment and origin contested and no grading standard for jade.
