Abstract: A case includes a first shell to encapsulate a portion of a collectible. The first shell includes a planar first end having a recessed first edge. A wall is attached to the planar first end at the first edge of the planar first end and surrounds the portion of the collectible. A shoe tree includes a foot-shaped portion for insertion into the collectible and supporting the collectible. An end portion is attached to the foot-shaped portion and rests against the wall, wherein the first shell is configured to support the shoe tree. A second shell seals the case and includes a planar second end to be placed on a lip of the wall, wherein the collectible is configured to be encapsulated by the case. The planar second end has a recessed edge to align with the recessed first edge to enable the case to be stacked on a counterpart case.

Abstract: A computer system generates information describing authenticity and a grade of a collectible scanned by a scanning device. A feature vector is extracted from the information. The feature vector includes a first set of features and a second set of features. The first set of features is matched to authenticity profiles of collectible items. Each authenticity profile characterizes at least one collectible item across multiple features. A confidence score is generated with respect to the authenticity of the collectible based on the authenticity profiles. The second set of features is matched to grade profiles of the collectible items. A grade score describing the grade of the collectible is generated based on the grade profiles. The grade of the collectible is determined based on the grade score. A graphical representation of the grade and the confidence score is transmitted to a display device.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a shipping container that includes numerous multi-factor authentication (MFA) tie ins to provide added security to the container. In some embodiments, the shipping container is associated with a mobile user profiles within a mobile application. A retailer makes a sale, then, using a mobile application, associates the container with the destination address and the MFA details associated with the buyer's mobile application account. Once the container is loaded up, the container will not open again except for the buyer using the buyer's MFA authentication credentials.
