This savage of a dude who sold this past company for a nasty $2.65 billion has raised $23 million for his new idea but you can get paid ASAP off of all your old stuff. Bastian is the co-founder and CEO of TipTop. TipTop is an application that allows consumer get instant cash offered on all their old stuff. It works by scanning your recent receipts and giving you the option to cash out your device in an hour or mail it yourself. They may go even farther by even getting somebody to come to you pick it up. Our catalog is always expanding, with support for most consumer electronics - over 50,000 different devices. And if you're a lazy dude like me and doesn't save any digital receipts, don't worry they have an integration of Google meaning just connect your Gmail and let TipTop process all the receipts. And if you're also wondering how did they get somebody to pick it up, this probably looks a little familiar to you too. TipTop works with Bastians old acquirers meaning only the top drivers of the folks picking it up. And Bastians investors are stacked. Not only does he have an investment from a 16 z, he's got Mark Andreessen sitting on the board. He's also pulled an investment from Sam Altman and our man Nabil from Spark Capital to call him out. Great name by the way. Along with some other really cool investors, feel free to pause and read. Overall I'm super bullish on this business. You got a founder who had a big exit and is also trying to make better way to sell your old stuff outside of Poshmark and Facebook Marketplace. All my founders out there use this as inspiration and keep being amazing.
