Description
A specialized auction and direct-sales business serving collectors of historical and political memorabilia is now available for acquisition.
Family owned with decades of history, the company was founded from a passion for history and has grown into one of the most respected names in the collecting community.
The business generates revenue through:
• Four established online and mail auctions each year
• A year-round online retail store
• Trade show participation
• Consignment sourcing and direct sales
• A nationwide customer and collector base
Unlike many competitors that focus primarily on high-end pieces or a broader mix of collectibles, this business has developed a strong reputation within its specialized niche.
The experienced and trusted management team remains in place, providing valuable continuity for a new owner. This opportunity may be ideal for a collector, investor, strategic buyer, or entrepreneur with an appreciation for history and memorabilia.

Fully Remote Real Estate Wholesaling Franchise
$ 225,000
Established in 2021, this franchised real estate wholesaling business sources off-market residential properties in a large metro area and assigns purchase contracts to a network of cash investors. The company operates under a national franchise brand with locations in more than 20 states, giving the owner access to proven systems, training, and a corporate deal-marketing program that generates buyer leads on every property placed under contract. The business is 100% virtual. There is no office, lease, or physical inventory, and the owner and all six team members work remotely. The current owner operates in a management role at roughly 10 hours per week, focused on hiring, training, and oversight, while the team handles acquisitions, dispositions, and transaction coordination. The recent softening reflects a deliberate step back by the owner and a near-complete team rebuild in the past year, with several team members still inside their first 90 days. The owner is selling to focus on family and other real estate ventures. Seller financing may be considered for a qualified buyer at a higher price point. The clearest growth path is owner engagement. The business produced its strongest results when the owner was active in acquisitions with a smaller team; today it has six trained team members and a larger infrastructure than it did at peak revenue. A buyer willing to commit 20 to 30 hours per week to deal flow and team leadership is well positioned to return to and exceed prior performance. Additional opportunities include expanding the buyer list beyond the current investor base, leveraging the franchisor's buyer-lead program more aggressively, adding creative-finance and novation deal structures, and using the virtual model to scale volume without adding fixed overhead. For an existing Detroit investor, the business also offers first look at every off-market property the team sources. https://tworld.com/locations/Wisconsin/northeast-wisconsin/listings/-Fully-Remote-Real-Estate-Wholesaling-Franchise

Score Big with Hot Sports and Memorabilia Industry
Call/Email
Believed to be one of the largest privately held memorabilia collections in the State, this extraordinary offering occupies two full floors of a dedicated retail space. The scale, breadth, and visual impact cannot be fully captured by a written inventory alone. This must-see collection is ideal for serious collectors, dealers, auction houses, investment groups, and strategic buyers seeking a substantial acquisition opportunity. The owner has spent more than 32 years assembling sports cards, autographed and game-used pieces, complete sets, unopened products, trading-card games, music and entertainment memorabilia, toys, comics, and specialty collectibles. The owner is now seeking to sell the entire collection as part of a retirement and downsizing plan. At the private viewing event on October 10 and 11, 2026, qualified prospective acquirers will have the opportunity to tour both floors of the collection, examine representative holdings, and meet directly with the owner. The owner’s preference is to complete a bulk sale of the entire collection to one buyer or a coordinated buyer group.
