Our cofounders were born into the collectibles industry, and were always seeking out new ways to create a fair and equitable market place. A place where collectors and investors could have efficient, safe, and transparent transactions without exorbitant premiums on their favorite collectibles.
The collectibles industry has been ripe for evolution and modernization, and our team saw space for a truly vertical collectibles company: A company where our customers could get their collectible Graded and Authenticated, buy and sell on a verified Marketplace, and Vault their collections.
From that dream came Rare Edition, the world’s first stop for everything collectible.
One of my favorite childhood memories is of opening up baseball, basketball, and football card packs with my sister. That joy was fueled by the excitement of finding what we perceived as rare or "good" cards. I remember thinking that those rare cards would be worth something someday. I’d buy those monthly Beckett guides and eagerly look up how much my favorites cards went up in value. It was magical.
