Problems solved by technology

Displaying collections in this manner often becomes cluttered and disorganized.

For the many collectors who own hundreds of smaller objects, such as Matchbox cars of Happy Meal toys, finding enough room to properly display each piece from their collection is nearly impossible.

Another challenge for serious collectors is safe and organized transport of their collections to and from trade and display shows.

Unorganized boxes of comic books, action figures or die cast automobile models are not conducive to showing off these items in an effective manner.
