features overview
GatherThat is rich in features built around four primary areas: Collect, Manage, Share, and Explore.
GatherThat users can create public, shareable versions of their collections so that the entire world can explore what they collect. Check out some of those below. Browse, search for keywords, filter by collection focus or theme, and explore the collections of people who share their interests around the world.
Collect
Whether you are into books, whiskey, trading cards, or art, GatherThat can help you collect. With eBay integrations, wishlists, and a built-in system to make offers on other user’s collectibles (when they are “Open to Offers”), you’ll be able to fine tune your collection to exactly how you want it. And, with a powerful mobile app that includes a barcode scanner (for supported collectibles like books, comics, and movies), you’ll be able to collect-on-the-go.
