It's primary product are merchandise and replicas of the original Commodore 64, however it also sells Commodore 64xs.[3] It has signed a share purchase agreement to purchase 47 Commodore trademarks from Commodore Corporation, the Dutch company which previously possessed the trademarks, for a "low seven figure" price.[4][5][6]
