Triple H gets Nickelback. Tony Khan gets Turnstile. This explains everything.

“We think about media hits for card sales. They're all great for awareness. They're all great to bring visibility to this space … But there's also a downside—and the downside is, it attracts the attention of fraudsters, of bad actors.”

The funny thing about discovery rarity… Once enough collectors figure it out, it becomes consensus rarity. That’s the lifecycle.

Discovery rarity usually lives in places like: overlooked parallels niche player collectors markets products the hobby moved past too quickly

The hobby talks a lot about rare cards. But most collectors chase rare cards everyone already agrees are rare. True scarcity usually requires research.

The hobby moves fast. But the National still rewards collectors who slow down and dig. A lot of people walk past bargain boxes. Some of the best finds in the room sit right there. Booked to Last with @SCUncensored and @RbiCru7 out now. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sta…

The best cards at the National are not always in display cases. Chad Weldon (@SportsCardJunct) talked about preparing bargain boxes for the National. Not junk boxes. Opportunity boxes. 2020 Topps Chrome WWE is a good place to start.

@CardLadder The better question after any headline sale is simple. What market am I actually in? Clarity there changes everything.

@CardLadder Perception then feeds behavior. Collectors start re-evaluating cards that were never part of the original market.

Many collectors think they are following data. They are following narratives.
