AP Royal Oak Double Balance Wheel Skeleton
Audemars Piguet — Solid 18ct Gold
$150,000
One of the most technically complex and visually striking pieces in the Royal Oak family. The solid gold skeleton dial showcases the double balance wheel movement in full. A flagship loan secured against one of horology's most coveted references.
Why It Was Suitable
An independently verified reference with strong resale demand and easily authenticated provenance — ideal collateral for a high-value, short-turnaround loan.
Outcome
Assessed, appraised, and funded within 24 hours. The watch was securely stored for the loan term and returned in full working order on repayment.
Pokémon Card Collection
High-Grade Investment Collection
$140,000
An extensive, curated collection of high-grade Pokémon cards acquired outright by Mega Cash Luxe. This purchase reflects the growing significance of trading card collections as a serious asset class — and our willingness to deploy significant capital where others won't.
Why It Was Suitable
A large, professionally graded collection with clear condition certification made valuation straightforward despite being a less conventional asset class.
Outcome
Purchased outright at an agreed market value, giving the seller immediate liquidity without having to sell individual cards piecemeal.
HSV GTSR Maloo
Series III — Low Kilometre Example
$100,000
The most powerful and collectable ute ever produced in Australia. With production numbers limited and values accelerating rapidly, the GTSR Maloo represents the kind of appreciating asset that Mega Cash Luxe is uniquely positioned to lend against.
Why It Was Suitable
Limited production numbers and a well-documented service history supported a confident valuation on a rare Australian performance vehicle.
Outcome
Loan settled and funds released within days, with the vehicle held in secure storage for the loan term.
PSA 8 1st Edition Charizard
Base Set — Near Mint/Mint
$40,000
A graded 1st Edition Base Set Charizard in PSA 8 condition — one of the most recognised and sought-after trading cards in existence. Purchased outright by Mega Cash Luxe as part of our growing focus on high-grade single card acquisitions.
Why It Was Suitable
Third-party grading removed authentication risk, allowing for fast, confident valuation of a single high-value card.
Outcome
Purchased outright, with funds paid directly to the seller on completion.
1967 Ford Mustang & 1977 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray
Two-Asset Loan — Classic American Muscle
$40,000
A single loan secured across two iconic American classics — a first-generation Mustang fastback and a C3 Corvette Stingray. Multi-asset loans allow clients to unlock capital across a collection without liquidating individual pieces.
Why It Was Suitable
Two well-documented classic vehicles allowed the loan to be structured across a combined security value, rather than requiring a single higher-value asset.
Outcome
Both vehicles were appraised together, securely stored, and released back to the client on repayment of the loan.
Nissan Skyline GT-R R32
BNR32 — Japanese Import
$35,000
The R32 GT-R — known internationally as "Godzilla" — has become one of the most collectible Japanese performance cars ever made, with values climbing consistently year on year. A strong security asset backed by genuine global demand.
Why It Was Suitable
Strong, consistent international demand for the model supported a reliable valuation and fast turnaround.
Outcome
Funded within 48 hours of appraisal, with the vehicle held securely for the loan term.
Assorted 18ct–22ct Gold Jewellery Collection
Necklaces, Rings, Earrings & Mixed Pieces
$25,000
A diverse collection of high-carat gold jewellery appraised and funded as a single loan. Spanning 18ct to 22ct gold across necklaces, rings, and earrings, this deal highlights our ability to assess and lend against mixed jewellery collections — not just individual flagship pieces.
Why It Was Suitable
Gold content across multiple pieces could be assessed and valued as a combined lot, simplifying what would otherwise be a multi-item appraisal.
Outcome
A single loan was funded against the full collection, with each piece catalogued and securely stored for the loan term.
Diamond Rolex Sky-Dweller
Iced Out — Full Diamond Set
$21,800
A fully diamond-set Rolex Sky-Dweller — one of the most complex movements in the Rolex catalogue combined with bespoke aftermarket diamond work. Appraised and funded within the same day.
Why It Was Suitable
A recognised reference with an active resale market, even with bespoke diamond modifications factored into the appraisal.
Outcome
Appraised and funded the same day, with the watch securely stored until the loan was repaid.
