Collectica

Collectica is an online community and marketplace for collectors that features a social auction platform where collectors can join the community to store information on their collections, meet other collectors, or buy and sell collectibles.

Collectica has allied with collecting organizations to assure the authenticity of the collections on the site and provides its members with fraud protection. A portion of the revenue from every sale goes back to these partner clubs and organizations.
