By joining forces with collectible dealers like Baby Jane of Hollywood, WCollect.com is creating strategic partnerships within their website, offering collectors the opportunity to find unique and often sought after items with the added assurance that their purchases are authentic. According to Roy Windham, co-owner of Baby Jane of Hollywood, "the Internet is an arena that is overloaded with online auction sites, offering nothing more than giant flea markets with spaces for thousands of listings for everything from old comics to used watches!! You are never quite sure what you are actually buying! We provide a letter of authenticity as well as a 100% lifetime guarantee on each item that we sell. We saw the quality items that WCollect.com was providing at auction and were extremely impressed." It seemed a great match for us to be able to offer our authentic memorabilia through the online auction venue." Like other quality vendors and dealers, Baby Jane feels that WCollect.com's online auction site truly stands out from the other auction websites. This partnership with WCollect.com was recently cited in the April 2, 1999 issue of Entertainment Weekly, now on the newsstands, as an ultimate source for collectors. Companies such as Baby Jane of Hollywood have joined with WCollect. com so they can take advantage of the highly successful online market- place without having to create their own website, which are often highly expensive and require significant collateral marketing and advertising efforts. Partnering with WCollect.com also allows dealers to immediately and significantly increases their potential collector customer base.
