The Authority Images and Vaults Over 10 Million Collectibles in Less Than Six Months After Launch

Dynamics Inc., the leader in security and collectible technologies, today announced that The Authority™ has imaged and vaulted over 10 million collectibles, reaching the milestone less than six months after launch.

Collectors can now submit trading cards, trading card games, memorabilia prints, comic books, trade paperbacks, coins, original artwork, and figurines to The Authority. The Authority can authenticate, grade, and encapsulate submitted collectibles.

The Authority authentication is affordable.  Collectors can typically authenticate, encapsulate, and grade an item for less than $10.

The Authority grading is reliable and consistent.  Items are graded using the industry’s first public grading standard.

The Authority process is fast.  Items are typically processed, imaged, and vaulted in under 30 days.

“We are open for business,” said Jeff Mullen, founder and CEO of The Authority, “Collectors can enjoy reliable, consistent grading at affordable prices and with dependable turn-around times.”

The Authority has invested heavily in team members and building proprietary technologies.  Adding over 100 team members and focusing heavily on automation, The Authority was able to hit this important growth milestone in under six months.

“Processing tens of millions of collectibles in a year is just table stakes” said Jeff,  “The Authority is working hard to expand into imaging and vaulting hundreds of millions of collectibles in a year.  That level of scale is achieved through process, automation, standards and proprietary technologies.”
