Sports cards has changed a lot since 2020. It's worth a revisit?

The market has changed a lot in the past few years. Because of people like you more and more people join the hobby which mean different cards for different collectors. One of the best things you said in one of your videos was by what you like. THE HOBBY IS ALIVE! Love the vids and thanks for the great content
Jay,
I'm very grateful to you and your videos being yourself. I look forward to seeing a new video from you a big bonus to end my day. Fyi: More boxes are coming.😂
The market is just so different now and I’m just starting collecting so it’s hard getting in cause i dont have that many valuable cards but if I was in 2020 I have my dads thousand dollar cards
Nosam,
You collect what you like. Depending on your reasons to join the hobby? Personal, Financial? I don't have many high end cards but as a whole personal collection it is very valuable to me. I would suggest checking out a local card show or trade night. Go and speak with others and ask questions on how they started and eventually got higher end cards, graded slabs. Not everyone has a big bankroll to start but with smaller purchases you could eventually trade up and get one or more. There's videos out there that will help you with tips and avenues to try. Be positive and enjoy the hobby!!
Sports card Market is artificial. Flippers are ruining the hobby. Collectors are the true lifeline of the hobby. As for 2020 market, it was driven by a bunch of bored guys that convinced the hobby world at large that their old stuff in the attic had arrived. Many fell for it, others watched, many sold.
I’m still waiting she the day when i can pick up an 86 Fleer MJ in an SGC 6 at a decent price. All of them are overpriced. Thanks, Jay!
Market doesn't matter to me because I collect what I buy
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
That’s how I do it. I try to make profits, but I also make sure that it’s cards that stand out to me
Yup, its because the "market" is full of these toxic youtube goombahs. It's one giant game of hot potato🥔
@@giantasparagus100%
I learned a lot from yall.
I just buy numbered cards, jersey cards or refractors now. No more base.
If you want your card to always retain value. Buy the 1%.
Yup, I only focus on numbered auto or relic, 1/1 and latest rookies because who know in the future they might make it big and famous
I also collect printing plates, especially movies type.
The thing that kills me being newer to the hobby is the difference in price between a PSA 10 and a 9. The fact that some employee can determine whether you make a grand or 100 dollars blows my mind.
It's a scam. 99 times out of 100 you're not gonna be able to detect a difference between a 9 and a 10. At some point the hobby is gonna wake up to that and the bubble is gonna burst for grading. I was around for the junk wax era, this is no different......welcome to the junk slab era. Not to mention all the snakes in the hobby just trying to take advantage of people.
Zion PSA 10 for $35 buy it now. Thought about grabbing it
This hobby is for the kids but it's not priced for kids.
Lol
Just started collecting again with my boy in 2023. Last time I collected on my own was in the 80’s 90’s when I was a kid. I’m just glad people are still collecting. I’m enjoying the hobby with my son and don’t do this for the money, I do it to create priceless memories with my kiddo.
I like the market better in 2024 because I can afford to collect again. 2020 was wild😅
Agreed 🎉
sold in 2020, didn’t buy… so thankful. it seems like the card market now is so watered down. way too much product being printed now in my opinion
There will be always be ups and downs! Great video as always!
I hated 2020 because I couldn't buy too many cards due to the high prices! But now everything is so cheap and I am loving it! I can buy so many cards online and there is so much product on the shelves!
I think the sport card markt with the growth is a hype. It’s need to get back to normal.
2020 was wild for the sports industry. Everyone was getting into it with the pandemic and all the stimulus funds and people getting back into their hobbies. 2024 the market is heating up with the Wemby, CJ, and Connor chase. It’s a great time to be a part of this hobby. I love your channel! Thanks for everything you do for our community.
The hobby is for the kids to love, the market is not priced for kids
2020 I never understood why base cards were worth so much. Having gone through the over printing is early 90s taught me to but autos and numbered cards. This time around with graded cards in the mix, base will further go down due to supply and demands of today. Regardless, I still took a hit buying autos/number cards during this run. As a collector first, glad to see I can afford the HOF cards again
Mojo, just got into collecting again since 07 when I was 9… don’t have much to say about the 2020 market other than Thank God I don’t have to pay thousands for cool rookies of guys I like. Just got a Mahomes “The Rookies” psa 10 in. That and my Gunner Henderson/Adley Rutschman dual auto 2/10 mint 9 *Gunnar jersey #* are my 2 big ones of only about 10 lol. Would love the Wemby rookie ! Cant wait to keep learning from you through your videos
It’s happening all over again in 2024. There are 4 major starts in each sports and multiple in MLB. You got CJ stroud/Connor Bedard/ Wemby then Shohei and the rest. Everything will be inflated and comedown soon after. Reminds of early 90s with Lindros/Bledsoe/Shaq/Frank Thomas and Griffey .
Buy early... sell during the hype and the playoffs.
Mojo, I wanted to start by saying congrats on you success in doing what you're passionate about. Nothing better making a living doing what you love and I feel like it's super rare. This was a good video to remind me that my complaints in life are so petty compared to what some may be going through. That kid saying that his mom went to heaven and he now is living with grandma was rough. It definitely tugged on the heart strings. If you find out what or who he collects I'd like to send you something to send to him. Keep up the good work and you my friend are what they call "living the dream ".
Markets more for collectors now, it’s good.
I was shocked that 2020 took off as it did, but very understandable as we just sat at home. I do think the market now is very over saturated and the prices are still to high.
My opinion is that the sports card market is booming, but I just don’t know if it’s for the best. I feel like kids are learning about business strategy and entrepreneurship which is great. But at the same time they seem to only be looking at the money aspect and I feel like they forget that you have to do it for the love of the hobby. Dealers buy from other dealers that bought from other dealers and they give eachother “the best prices” so they can all make money every time it moves hands, but do these cards ever make it into the hands of the people that actually love these players and PC these cards?! To everyone reading this.. DONT FORGET ABOUT LOVING THE HOBBY! THATS WHAT WILL MAKE THE HOBBY LAST FOREVER!
Nothing is forever in this world!
All the kids at these shows are just rich kids, they'll have everything set in life.
From what I’m seeing, the market as far as pricing, maybe dipping, but interest is at an all time high. I think the pricing shifts around, from sealed, to raw, and slabbed. I think prices will begin to rise again, if we welcome new people, teach, & learn, and just be cool, and collect what we like. This is such a fun & exciting business, but can be very challenging. I guess only those true collectors, and people who are truly passionate, are always the ones that rise, or make a living out of it.
My opinion about 2020 for cards was UNDERRATED because it made most of us find the hobby
Cards are crazy these days! So many parallels and colors. 10 different rookies in the same set, and 10 different sets. As being older and trying to start a collection for the grandson, it’s overwhelming. I remember getting my 4 Griffey Jr rookies and being happy!
mannnn right
Hey man. I hear ya about people in the business with bad attitudes. More than once I’ve encountered dealers at card shows most recently the National where dealers with crappy attitudes talk to you like they’re doing you a favor just by being there. I’ve made an offer on something at a show and the dealer responds with “Are you paying my expenses for being here?” It’s like not anymore than you’re paying for mine buddy. Like you said…just get out of the business. Nobody needs that. Thanks for another good video.
Well said 🎉❤
I'm not sure about the 2020 market. Unfortunately, i wasn't collecting then, but now it seems i have walked into an over saturated market. In fact, I am not even sure where or how to start it's kind of overwhelming, any suggestions on how to start properly?
Best suggestion is dont wasted your money on anything printed in the last 5 years.
In 2024, I think the hobby is in a very healthy mix. I think having affordable PSA 10 base cards is great for the younger collectors or new collectors trying to get in the hobby. If the base was not affordable for the average newcomer then it wouldn’t be an enjoyable hobby for everyone. The healthy mix also gives those with more funds to collect the bigger cards whether autos, SSP parallels, or low numbered cards. As for 2020, it was a year of inflated prices for everything, not just sports cards, so we will never see those numbers again unless the government starts giving away millions again.
Bought a couple chiefs and packers fleer and pro set cards from a garage sale to gift a friend who’s a die hard fan of both teams since he was a kid. Started looking at the cards I bought him and got interested quick and hooked into collecting them same day lol. Went back to the garage sale and bought the whole binder with 200+ football and baseball cards.
As you said, hobby boxes are wayyy too high. Even base rookies of Stroud and Wenbanyama are all over the place. I hope the market continues to correct itself and Panini and Topps lower the prices of hobby boxes. I don’t rip hardly any wax anymore, singles is where it’s at!
The market is too many sellers not enough buyers
First id like to start with i love ur content. I used to love collecting. But for me I've found that greed has ruined the hobby. Hobby boxes have been priced out to push out the small guy. When boxs were $150 for like xr nfl. $400 for spectra I could afford to take a chance but now it's ridiculous. I get there's retail but F retail. They've mass produce them an lowered the chance at anything good. Can't tell u how many time I've been ripped off by other ppl in the hobby. Hope to find something to spark the joy back into collecting
I think people are hurting for money. That's why 😮😮😮
Too many flippers and not enough collectors 😮
Now, some of the collectors are selling, slowly. It's a new generation of trading card's. And most are not really collectors. It's about the money too them. You know what's up. Love your videos. East cost is way behind compared too anywhere else. But, I don't care. I like collecting. God bless you and your's ❤❤❤
Spot on. I've noticed the trend at card shows starting around covid with these kids who dont collect, just flip. They all wanna be geoff wilson or cc2 flexing their millions of dollars in cards to their army of 10 year old followers.
I still think there is a place for PSA 10 base rookies. Not all of us can afford to buy PSA 10 /25 or lower rookie cards that sell for $1000s+. PSA 19 Rated Rookies for example, are still a great buy for those of us on a budget!
That kid with him mum passing away i feel so bad but I hope it's not a troll to get free things.
I collect what I like, but yeah it feels way down
The sports card market in 2020 was inflated due to people being bored during covid and getting into the hobby. Now the market is in a much better place for collectors and even resellers as it is a great time to buy right now, i can see the price of cards going up in the next 1-2 years. But in perspective the hobby is on a steady increase over the last 5-10 years.
I wasn’t really collecting in 2020 but great video (i didn’t cry you did)
I think it’s a great time to be in cards. I collect and I vend, and people who say all vendors are only in it for the money are wrong. Some are, sure. But for those in it for the right reasons, who love cards and use vending to fund their collections, it’s a great time to be in this hobby!! I can grade without waiting 7-10 business years, I can buy awesome stuff without breaking the bank, and I get to own awesome cards of my favorite players. So to answer your question, YES, it’s an awesome time to be in this hobby!
Chester was my cousin.
Card market is too high for hobby boxes..I personally just buy the singles now and that is mostly my PC stuff. Love your content Jay! Love the emotion because we all experience the same feelings at times in our lives. Stay safe and love the videos!
I miss the 80’s and 90’s and getting the new Beckett to see what my card(s) were worth. I don’t like that my cards values are based on who wanted to spend the most money on a card. I guess I’m just old school.
The 2020 Collectibles Bubble coincided with a huge cryptocurrency run and there is probably a direct correspondence between the two. People were cashing out & purchasing gold primarily but I am sure that many bought cards thus boosting card prices
People got crazy making money in 2020, it helped get people back into the hobby for sure, people followed the money. Now it’s settled back down to where true hobbyists can enjoy the hobby again. Whatnot has also helped hobbyists like me enjoy the hobby again by being able to buy inexpensive base cards. I’m happy for what happened in 2020 but grateful the prices are where they should be so youth can get into the hobby. Thank you for your continued support of the hobby.
I wrote this before the tears, thank god for the hobby and hobbiest like you that do this for the right reasons, money isn’t everything, family and friends and cards are more important than profits.
I have been collecting since the 1970s..always just for my own personal favorites. Have had loads of fun and never lost any money other than the expense of the cards and supplies. Enjoyed your video and subscribed...Thanks
I think that market is crazy right now, for baseball I think Topps is producing to many cards and products and watering down the value of the best players in the league. For basketball cards, all people care about is Wemby. For football cards, all people care about is Stroud. I think the 2020-21 market was bad for the hobby in the sense that it just got too pricy and kids couldn’t buy cheap cards anymore. However, grading became a huge thing and I think that was great for the hobby.
Agreed bro, hobby boxes should go down. Also, I actually feel like base rookies should go back up like they were. Why? Because that's what those of who aren't rich collectors, pull. Many of us can only afford getting retail blasters and hangers when we are living paycheck to paycheck. When investors buy up all the Megas and hobby boxes and price gouge them it's near impossible to be a part of the numbered and auto realm of collecting.
Loved, loved, loved this video! I too lost my father in February and I'm having a very, very hard time. My dad was my best friend, and we collected together back during the junk wax era and I just got back into this hobby around a year ago now. You must have had a really good dad too if you're not afraid to cry. My dad showed me how absolutely precious life is and it's most definitely worth shedding tears for. Would appreciate any and all prayers.
Much love to all of you fellow collectors.
I collected when I was young in the early 90’s. Stopped when I got to high school and got back into it a few years ago when my young son started collecting. It’s been a blast with him. I missed the 2020 year but the prices for just blasters are even too high compared to what you typically get, we will open some together just for the joy of ripping, but he mostly sticks to singles of what he collects. Keep up the great work.
Fully agree that hobby boxes are too expensive. Living in the UK and collecting baseball and basketball, I always had to pay a bit more for product than I would if I bought in the US but now, I’ve been priced out of the market, especially for basketball. Wish the boxes were back to their 2018 prices but they never will be lol.
Lame that these new cards cost more than proven HOFs
Wow.. that’s unreal. I didn’t buy anything in 2020, but man I feel for everyone who bought in from a pure speculative investment perspective. I think like anything, you see expansion, and contraction. Right now, the sports card market is in a contraction phase, but like all things, it’ll expand, and it’ll grow once again. Maybe off topic, but thanks for being a great human being, you’re a great a role model who leads by example. Definitely love realness, and the authenticity, the world needs more of it.
8:29 that 1964 Topps is lovely
The amount base cards have gone down since 2020/2021 makes me flabergasted that people are paying so much for Wemby base card rookies right now.
Man that’s wild but you’re right
I think 2020 was great for the hobby for new comers but was awful for affordability. Really tough to find hobby boxes for less than $200 like we did in the 90s or 2000s. Makes me sad. Market now is still cool. I like seeing what people go after but i am learning to appreciate what i had, which locks me back into the old market or nostalgia as some would say.
I think the card market is in a great place right now! I just bought a bowman u rookie for 50$ and he’s obviously never played a game in the nfl, the bowman sales show how great the card market is, ppl r paying so much for guys who haven’t done anything yet. 2021 was probably a little higher than we can get back to but I don’t think it’s impossible once we introduce more sports fans to sports cards
I love and hate the sports card game. Love the community and love hunting, selling, trading, collecting.
I hate how expensive it's become, the card game would b so much bigger if it was actually affordable & these companies weren't so greedy. It's making it so that some the next generation won't want to collect. It's a shame smh
I agree with the pricing and affordability for sure
If they love the collector then show it ?
I most recently joined the hobby but whenever I heard my friends collecting or buying crazzy names during 2020-21 I wasn’t suprised when they stopped buying due to the market now but man I feel you in every aspects, I hope life is treating you well the hobby is here for you but stay strong my brotha 💪
The new market sucks as a seller, but as a collector it’s amazing being able to grab a bunch of cards I maybe wouldn’t have been able to get before!
Market is down. Short prints are making it hard for base cards. And people focused on short prints for colored or numbered make old base cards value low. A lot of base and commons are getting seen more as junk
The video today was great, in a "let's get deep" sense and while answering your question in the comments I also just had some late night thoughts myself (Essay for some bathroom reading or TL;DR below).
TL;DR - 2020 was wild outside looking in (wasn't a part of the hobby at that time) & 2023 to now I've experienced all sorts of things in the hobby... the great, the good, & the bad... but it's been fun and can't to see what's ahead.
Wasn't really in the sports cards in 2020 (MtG and Pokemon), but hearing the tales of cards having astronomical values for what feels like now almost no reason is wild to me.
2023 to now and as a new collector/hobby enthusiast... I have thoughts on a few different things I've noticed & experienced:
1. Grading - used to be for collecting and preserving, but nowadays people have gotten wise to the extra value proof of condition brings and it's become a quick way to make money. Not a bad thing per say, but feels like if EVERYTHING is graded then nothing feels special unless it truly is (I.e. graded /#'d cards or Patches/Autos/etc.).
2. "Old heads" would rather be buried with their cards than lose a dime on them in a sale. Having someone tell me or watch them with someone else and they want $200 on $100 card (based on recent comps) and the convo that ensues is still wild to me. Like to some degree I get it, but like with stocks, holding is a dangerous game if your logic is fueled by hope.
3. I absolutely LOVE talking shop and making conversation with people on both sides of the table. A lot of my friends aren't into sports (specifically football) like I am and having shows to attend with people that share the same passion has made me happy.
4. Whatnot. The sellers I follow/like on whatnot I REALLY like what they're about (You, Juice from KK are a few)... the vibes and streams are fun and interactive. That said, I have also run into the [bad] actors (I'm sure people know) whether it's breaking or singles that ALWAYS make it sound like you're just getting absolute STEALS on every. single. thing. they sell when often times it's the exact opposite. The way they play victim and belittle their chats and pressure them to bid/buy is disgusting. The simple answer is just not watch them (and generally speaking I don't), but at a certain point regardless if I watch or not it's that type of toxic, gaslighting behavior that will steer people away from the hobby and that's a sad thing to think about. Those bad experiences do scar people. I've seen it countless times in TCGs and other hobbies in general.
5. The thrill of the chase is exhilarating, but dangerous. I've gambled here and there in general, but I've always loved ripping packs (like to the point where I'd become a breaker for basically free aka cost + shipping if I didn't have to pay fees/taxes). That said... BREAKS are VERY fun to be a part of... but it is gambling and can be extremely dangerous. Like with gambling, moderation is key and only gamble what you can afford to/be ok with losing. Had to remind myself of that the hard way after I joined a large amount of breaks very quickly, I definitely needed to take a step back... but I've learned from it going forward.
6. To expand on 5 Going to shows is like Comic Con for sports enthusiasts... and I LOVED going to cons. But have a Goal and subsequently a budget and "grocery list." It's helped me for the most part... but sometimes you go to the store hungry and to spend more than you needed/wanted to. That's ok, but not something to make a habit of!
7. The nature of sports cards collecting/trading/buying/selling has scratched the itch I've had for a long time and after coming to a realization and establishing a connection for the players/cards I wanted to collect it's become a new goal/side quest in my life - one that I enjoy very much. I'm not perfect, and have run into some hurdles and made some mistakes early on; however, it has been a fun journey and one I hope continue on.
If you made it to the end, thanks for reading haha. Time for bed! Keep doing what you do, Jay!
I'll stick to gems and precious metals! Just kidding. I've started collecting again. Haven't touched a card since 97. I collect 90s basketball. Love it!
Yes - think card market has sure changed since 2020.
You and I both have proof of it on our channels. Those card shows back then were crazy. It just goes to show that you need to collect what you love and not the price.
Keep creating and documenting our hobby history my friend Jay
I still watch and follow most of the older channels they are huge now like yours, but I’m just trying to get mine up to 1K now which is right around the corner but I’m not really talking about values much any longer.
The QR thing is really what I’m concentrating on now trying to build my channel and help others in the hobby community Keep on banging out that content. My friend is great seeing you and hearing from you on my post.
🚂🚂👍
Rules 62 🤣😂🤣
The sports card market is flooded with "auto" & "numbered" cards, or a combination of both. It's currently overpriced and not what it used to be! Absolutely pathetic 🤮
Card market has wildly shifted in recent years although I feel it is leveling out pretty well. Love the videos!
Blessed my LCS on a bunch of sealed Pokémon, they sold out in a few weeks and then I went back in to get about 50% quotes on comps for some good raw or slabs 😅 couldn’t agree more that a bad attitude turns business away so fast
Base rookies have plummeted big time! People were bored in 2020 and created a false bubble. Great video!
My opinion on the sports card market is... got to keep buying and selling, holding cards is dangerous sometimes
Didn't spend a dime on any of those bum players that people were paying outrageous prices on for base prizm. Everyone said I was crazy and being negative. It's nice being right all the time and not wasting money on that trash :)
A base card been $1500 explains a lot of what was wrong to be fair
Dang, my comment deleted when I accidentally refreshed page. Ugh. 2020 was bubble with high prices, which have settled down now. Might be a good time to hold off on buying unopened product and focus on acquiring chase cards.
I buy J Rod, Juan S, Shohei, Bo Jackson.
Loss is tough. I've had so much loss in my life. The kid's got a rough road ahead, hopefully he'll find a good group of supportive people to help him mourn and heal. Digital hugs, my little homie.
Totally okay to cry.
The market has always been up and down. I remember the days of the 1986 Donruss Jose Canseco Rated Rookie was $100 in 1988-89. It comes down to basic economics of supply and demand.
Sports card market is crazy. It's all over the place
The hockey card market is high atm with the release of the Bedard Young Guns.A base Young Gun is like a 1000 and I noticed it's everywhere.I'm guessing it's gonna crash any day now once the gold 1/1 Bedard is pulled with the million bounty on it.
What i hear is about every 25-30 years, there is a boom in cards, and then it dies out. Histroy repeats itself. When i was a kid, we loved it, and it was huge, and then we became teens, and our money went elsewhere. When this young gen is tired of paying 300+ a box, it will be over again, and just the die hards will stick around. I was happy back in the day if a card was $5, and i protected it at all costs, lol. It's just a fun hobby, and if an expensive card is pulled, that's great, but it's great to pull a cool looking ohtani, imo also bc im a fan. Just sit back and enjoy the hobby.
I feel that the market currently is decently strong. In 2020, people were just buying cards without much thought. People now have learned the market and aren’t driving the cards crazy high in value.
You know what you need to take care of?? The table next to you at a card show…. That’s true hobby loyalty
The 2020 sports card market was crazy, in my opinion the reason it went up was becasue everybody was in their house on quarintine and they started to revisit their childhood and trying to get engaged back in the hobby, In my opinion the hobby will skyrocket again in the near future. love your content keep it up, would love to win that sick wemby. 🔥🔥🔥
The market has definitely had some drastic changes since the early 2000’s and even since 2020. I really like all the parallels, auto, & jerseys cards nowadays. I wish they would put a little more value toward base sets for those set collectors. I feel that is what is missing from the hobby. Stop selling completed sets and make people have to build them themselves. That in my mind would put value back into the base sets. 🤙🏼
I cannot really judge the market because its rare that I buy anything. Maybe just Miggy's but thats it. His cards have gotten way more expensive but I knew that was going to happen so it did not surprise me. I never delt with high end cards before. I always make sure any card bought on my EBay is protected. I could not even dream about sending out a card in just a penny sleeve. That is terrible way to do that. That Marichal is freaking sick !!! What a beauty of a card to have ! I am in the middle of making the 1968 Detroit Tiger team set. I have most of the big names out of the way. I was not born yet but that was my daddy's fav year for the team. Getting into thsi hobby saved my life. I came home after 1 month in the hosp and I started to collect right away. I decided to start a channel for the fun of it. I need this card hobby to stay alive and I also do this for the love of baseball !! Nice Robinson SP !! Loved todays video, thanks for sharing !!
New stuff is crap, stick to pre 1974 vintage.
I think the sports card market is definitely a buyers right now!!
Too many wannabe influencers ruining the hobby
Hey Mojo, you are one of my favorite people in the card community, I was wondering if you were going to the Dallas Card Show on March, 15? I will be going with my friend for my birthday I hope to see you there
Exclusive rights equals monopoly, fanatics, and Panini should have equal Access to the NFL. I say this because I mostly do football it could be the same for all other sports. Then they should get exclusive rights to players, not the entire league. We wouldn’t have such a water down product at that point. The hobby has price itself out of the average collectors wallet, and open the door for more breakers. Not that I have anything against breakers. It would be nice to open up my own box and not pay $900 to get $300 worth of cards. If I’m lucky.
I completely understand that there is no guaranteed profit in the secondary market, but it Has to be worth something to make sense out of spending that much money on the box.
Prices are crazy nowadays…
🤦🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️ @17:36 EXACTLY! 😩
And I laugh at those that buy a TON on their channels and get nothing! 🤣🤣
It’s all goes with the larger market movement. When people go money to burn prices get inflated. Today. People’s budgets are getting tighter and hobbies aren’t the priority so prices are becoming realistic. Hell now is the time to buy as the market is lowering. Everything is cyclical.
I was greatful to get like 2 good buys when pandemic was going on. I feel like the hype was real and prices were crazy. Never got a Luka rookie prizim got a lot of Zions. I sold mine accept one college one for pc. If it's not my for my pc I just trade or sale but the market is good now. Prices came down on stuff and i can find more now.
2020 was a year where you want to make quick cash you can. As we come to 2024 it's more on you got to follow what's hot, what QB or what RC that's coming up that you can buy for "Cheap" and than make 10% or 20% as a flip! As for boxes you mention something so good the box market is so high for just what 1 player maybe 2? That's crazy that you pay $500+ for what you getting back less than $200. Honestly in the long run this helps the market more correct itself as it forces people to 1. Buy there Own PC cards, 2, there would be less demand for the items allowing younger people that can buy a hobby box or even blasters boxes for the fun of it.
I actually know nothing about the sports card market in 2020 but I still think it is stupid that a Deandre Ayton prizm base rookie psa 10 is 10 dollars, hes a solid player.
I think the sports card market is alright right now in 2020 I hated the base rookies and how expensive they were.
I feel like the market is definitely leveling out, some short time flippers are leaving because of the margins. If you're not a true collector then you'll be out shortly. Great video bro! Glad I got to meet you at Nationals last year!
The sports card market is becoming a more picky market. Not many people collecting to build sets or have personal keeps. Some say they PC them then sell it 😂. The market is more of a for profit market and people trying to really make money more then keep cards. I do believe the market is overproducing, Topps base baseball cards were at 250k in 2018 and now in 2022 and up they are producing about 1 million basecards. Base cards will start to be under valued in the hobby.
It’s slowing down. Many of these cards are selling at a price that it should be at or less. Also everyone is looking up comps too much. You won’t make money because everyone wants it to be lower than the comp.
I only buy singles. I’m glad others open boxed to get the cards into circulation for us collectors.
Right now Sports Cards are settling in a good position compared to 2020 when everything was hyped to the extreme. 2020 with the pandemic lockdown world wide people being bored af reviviting stuff they used to do in the past made everything hype to the extreme in the wrong way
Just be you Don't let anyone interfere in what you are doing they want to take what they can away from you everyone loves to step on everyone else if you don't give them your energy they are powerless be who you are be proud stay proud do what you do for your reasons and your reasons only I respect you for what you do for the children takes a big man to cry to all his fans on CZcams shows your true feelings you have compassion we need more of that thank you mojo My first text to you won't be my last keep up the good work by the way I'm 58 and I'm still a big kid always will be
Well said 💎
Thanks for the kind words
The market is definitely down a ton from 2020 but its still pretty HOT. Im still loving the hobby just as much. I do wish boxes price would come down too
I love how the market has changed with retail. It’s the only thing I can afford and I like being able to rip product.
I think it’s classic ebs and flows. We are kinda seeing it now with wemby and stroud. When the overall market gets hot, the market gets flooded for these base rookies as if they are guarenteed hall of famers. Guarantee stroud will be down 50% by this time next year.
I don’t really have a opinion on the 2020 market mostly because i don’t remember that far back but I think todays market is in a good place..on the same hand though it could go down depending on what happens with the economy.
