Collectionstation.com Launches a Network for Collectors

On CollectionStation.com, users can catalog what they have and want. What makes CollectionStation unique is if the category does not exist, the user can create it themselves so they may add what they have and want to the master database. “Anything could be considered a collectible so we had to develop a proprietary system that would allow users to database any type of collectible and a way to catalog different collections,” said Gavin Roberts, chief technical officer of CollectionStation. “Collectors are passionate about what they collect and we believe that if we gave them the ability contribute their expertise, the entire community would benefit from it. Once a user has added a collectible to a category, everyone else can then catalog it to their own have or want collection very quickly and easily.”

CollectionStation allows users to create their own Groups and Blog on the things they collect. “We realized that CollectionStation would make a great social network as many collectors like to showcase pictures of their collections and blog about their latest finds,” said Comenzo. CollectionStation has partnered up with eBay to generate marketplace values on their collectibles. “eBay is a great resource to determine a marketplace value on collectibles. They are the world’s biggest marketplace and on CollectionStation, you can search for collectibles that have sold, as far back as two years to determine their value,” said Roberts. Once the collectibles have been cataloged, the user will also have a value of their entire collection. When the user is ready to sell their collectibles, CollectionStation provides a quick and easy way list them to sell on eBay. “There is no need to re-type the items details, CollectionStation will do it for you,” said Roberts. Users will be able to trade their collectibles with other CollectionStation users just as easy with their own dedicated trading system. If you have something and another collector wants it, they can negotiate a trade. Users have the option to link their eBay feedback to their CollectionStation account so they have an idea of a users history. “It gives users a level of trust,” said Roberts.

CollectionStation also gives advertisers the opportunity to connect their brands with highly engaged consumers. Additionally, CollectionStation offers and is committed to targeted online advertising experiences. “As our content grows, the advertisements would become more targeted to that content,” said Comenzo.
