PWCC offers technology, a collectibles vault, and an established marketplace to Fanatics Collectibles after bringing all its technological operations in-house due to a dispute with eBay.

PWCC is the second major acquisition for Fanatics in the past month, and is proof that it’s best to be greedy while others are fearful.  Recall that early last year, Fanatics acquired Topps trading cards as well, so Fanatics is moving not just to control the supply but also the distribution of the sports collectibles business.
