About Archive

Archive lets collectors own and collect shares in authenticated, insured sealed collectibles, redeem a full shareholding for the physical box, and trade through the Archive Exchange once it opens.

Our Collective Resistance Against Bad Actors in Collectibles

We built Archive to be the best way to own and collect sealed collectibles, because we are sick of scammers and unethical vendors profiting from this hobby of ours.

Archive will do for sealed collectibles what ETFs did for gold.

Digital marketplaces collect commissions while dishonest actors go unpunished. Archive is our collective resistance against bad actors in collectibles.

Collectors routinely face:

  • Rocks in a box and empty packages
  • Resealed and reshrinked products
  • Mislabelled products sold at a premium
  • Exorbitant shipping fees hidden in the fine print
  • Vendors cancelling orders when prices move against them

Focus on Collecting

Collectors can spend more time managing their collections than deciding what they actually want to own.

Without Archive, collectors must manage:

  • Storage for bulky sealed products
  • Temperature and humidity conditions
  • Insurance
  • Fragile and expensive cross-border shipping
  • Customs duties and taxes
  • Logistics every time a collectible is bought or sold

We have been burnt collecting sealed products ourselves. Archive handles procurement, authentication, custody, insurance and logistics so collectors can focus on what to own, instead of how to own.

Focus on collecting, leave the rest to us.
