Quit trying to understand why I collect the way I do. Look around. If you consider yourself an "average" collector, then realize 49% of this hobby is BETTER than you at it.


Found a nearly 15 year old article from @tradercracks on my query. I already have a few of these but 'A House of Cards' is now on order. cardboardconnection.com/10-must-books-…

Okay #Hobby folk, Time to put on your thinking caps. Besides 'The Card', 'Mint Condition', and 'Card Sharks', what would you consider to be "must reads" for collectors?

Final purchase of 2025 is the 1st #Mailday of 2026.

Call it therapeutic. I enjoy building the binders using the actual card boxes for these junk wax sets, esp. when the binder spine comes out so nice. While I have boxes for most of the older sets, I’m still looking for empty boxes for 2010-2014, 2016-2021 A&G, 2015-2020, 2022 TSC.

LHBs are the MLB equivalent of 'KA-BOOM's and 'Downtown's. No where near worth what they are currently going for.

If those 6 month old babies wouldn't interfere with "law enforcement" doing their jobs, they wouldn't get tear gassed. Fucking lib infants and their protesting!

🚨BREAKING: ICE agents just flash-banged and tear-gassed a 6-month-old baby. ICE agents began tear-gassing a residential neighborhood after shooting a man nearby. As the gas spread, a family got into their vehicle to escape the tear gas. In the video, a man is seen standing…



Too much $$$ for 3 yrs but happy to see Bo get paid.

$1 Antique Mall repack rip. What’s the best card here?


A5 - Thought about it today. I might set some goals just to stay focused. Already completed 1 for 2026. #CardChat

Q5: Even though I don't do them anymore, do you have any collecting goals for 2026? #CardChat



A4 - #CardChat

Q4: What do you consider the "State of the Hobby?" #CardChat



A3 - Lack of new product distribution to Canada. #CardChat

Q3 What is the biggest change in a recent memory that has affected te way you collect? #CardChat

Came home with fewer cards and more money. I think that’s what the kids call a win-win. Also learned, listened and feel pretty good about my pricing so gained confidence. Yay!

For 5+ years now I’ve heard the same tired narrative from people who always post whenever something awesome happens in the wrestling card space. “Wrestling cards are over-priced and will never sustain the market they have now long term.” Or “It’s so dumb that the cards are so…

Would collectors be willing to pay $15.00 shipping to get their card(s) in a box? That is how much Canada Post charges for boxes/packages. I am genuinely curious to your answers on this.


I just discovered I'm a "Purist" on the Collector-Investor Spectrum! Take the assessment to find your collector identity. thehobbyspectrum.com Wasn't sure what to expect with this but I was pleasantly surprised. This is a very thorough self-reflection & a helpful tool. 5 🌟

1989 Upper Deck is a surprisingly miscut release. 60 to 70 percent of my commons, upon further review, are off centre.
