In December of 2001, NAXCOM, one of the country’s largest promoters of Sports & Collectible Shows, launched an On-line Marketplace modeled after the stock market. Only a few years later, NAXCOM has become the fastest growing Sports & Collectibles Marketplace on the Internet (according to Alexa) with 3,300,000 user listings (10X more than the category at eBay) and 85,000 registered users as off 5/13/2005.

NAXCOM operates on a 'bid/ask' principle. Buyers looking for an item can buy for a listed price if available, or post a bid (buy offer) and put a value on what they are willing to pay for said item. Conversely, sellers can sell their item to a listed buy offer or post a sell offer of their own for their desired asking price. Each item has its own book id which is its unique identifier and links it to other items with the same description. The payment process has escrow like features so that both buyer and sellers have protection. NAXCOM guarantee's buyers receive the item they purchase. These features are some of their main competitive advantages. Their customer service is also readily available through a variety of methods. They include, telephone, live help and email.

In addition to its on-line exchange, NAXCOM is still promoting Sports & Collectible Shows and is one of the country's largest. NAXCOM has recently expanded its shows nationwide from Southern California to Hawaii, Kansas City, Philadelphia, San Jose, Denver and Las Vegas. A regular venue in Southern California is the Hollywood Park Show.

NAXCOM’s trade shows and online marketplace are very similar, whereby NAXCOM is neither the buyer nor the seller, but rather the venue where dealers and collectors buy and sell merchandise. NAXCOM has many firsts to its name and has established itself as a innovator and leader in customer service.

NAXCOM stands for “The National Automated eXchange Collectibles On-line Marketplace”.
