The information required on the remainder of this cover page shall not be deemed to be “filed” for the purpose of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section of the Act but shall be subject to all other provisions of the Act (however, see the Notes).

The following constitutes Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned (“Amendment No. 1”). This Amendment No. 1 amends the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth herein.

Item 2 is hereby amended to add the following:

In connection with the withdrawal of Nathaniel Snead Turner V as a nominee for election to the Issuer’s Board of Directors at the Issuer’s 2020 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”), Mr. Turner will no longer be a member of the Section 13(d) group and shall cease to be a Reporting Person immediately after the filing of this Amendment No. 1. The remaining Reporting Persons will continue filing as a group statements on Schedule 13D with respect to their beneficial ownership of securities of the Issuer to the extent required by applicable law. Each of the remaining Reporting Persons is party to the Amended and Restated Joint Filing and Solicitation Agreement, as further described in Item 6 below.

Item 3 is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

The Shares purchased by each of Alta Fox Opportunities and Alta Fox SPV were purchased with working capital (which may, at any given time, include margin loans made by brokerage firms in the ordinary course of business) in open market purchases, except as otherwise noted, as set forth in Schedule A to the Schedule 13D, which is incorporated by reference herein.

The aggregate purchase price of the 287,421 Shares beneficially owned by Alta Fox Opportunities is approximately $5,872,483, including brokerage commissions. The aggregate purchase price of the 209,524 Shares beneficially owned by Alta Fox SPV is approximately $4,761,991, including brokerage commissions.

The Shares beneficially owned by Mr. Turner represent 3,681 Shares purchased by Mr. Turner through NTWJ Holdings, LLC, of which he is the managing member, with personal funds in the open market. The aggregate purchase price of the 3,681 Shares beneficially owned by Mr. Turner is approximately $107,625.

Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following:

Alta Fox nominated six director candidates to the Issuer’s five-person Board in anticipation of likely reducing the slate depending upon certain facts and circumstances. While Mr. Turner continues to believe that the changes Alta Fox is seeking at the Issuer are in the best interests of all shareholders and customers, Mr. Turner has withdrawn his candidacy as a director nominee of Alta Fox for election to the Board at the Annual Meeting. Alta Fox thanks Mr. Turner for his contributions to the slate’s operating plan for the Issuer and for helping Alta Fox connect with the passionate collector community.

Items 5(a) – (c) are hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

The aggregate percentage of Shares reported owned by each person named herein is based upon 9,270,281 Shares outstanding, as of April 30, 2020, which is the total number of Shares outstanding as reported in the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 6, 2020.

Each of the Reporting Persons specifically disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities reported herein that he, she or it does not directly own.
