I started here focused on Pokémon. The hobby’s bigger than that. Now it’s all cards, all sports — Pokémon, sports cards, TCG, UFC, Star Wars, and others. Market talk, comps & real takes. Welcome to The Card Guy.

@Wetts1012 Completely agree - and that's exactly what's happened. The whole sneaker head mentality has been adopted by the people looking to profit off the industry. Control inventory, artificial scarcity, gatekeeping access to the product, etc.

@Nebula8jg Owning a LCS is the worst decision someone can make. Unless you’re independently wealthy it’s a grind to survive and you have to do things like this to survive.

Maybe I'm in the minority, but seems that the big box stores are the only place where you can get product at MSRP. Every LCS that I've been to charges "market". Since that's the case, I'm totally cool with starving LCS and giving all the allocation to big box.

@Nebula8jg You’re definitely not wrong. It’s like everything, there are good shop owners and bad shop owners.

@toppsmedalion Not buying it. I've seen shops with ample stock of product and price it to the moon just because "market". It's happening all the time and has been for a while. If ripping people off is the only way they can stay in business, they deserve to go under.

@Nebula8jg It’s a supply and demand issue. When shops only get 1 case of blasters on a flagship release they have to mark it up. Then you go to Dicks or GameStop and see shelves full of product. Yes there are some that gouge but a lot do what they have to.

The cost is insane here. $0.50 per minute. That’s $30 an hour. An outsourced human call center worker costs about $0.017 a minute (roughly $1.02/hour). You’re paying a 30x premium to talk to an AI Agent. Everything seems good till it isn't.

This is getting way too real! I can now get on a video call with my OpenClaw Agents to chat with them face to face. All i need to do is to send them a Google meet invite.

He pulled a $3M card with his driver 🔥 Collector Shyne150 was casually opening packs from a sealed $68K case of 2003–04 Upper Deck SP Authentic with his driver when they hit this LeBron/Jordan/Kobe Triple RC Auto /15. Even crazier: right before this, Shyne had already paid $3M for another copy. (via shyne150/IG)

@CardPurchaser do you or anyone else know @BadBoyzl1qc2b? He sent me an unsolicited message claiming he was scammed by someone impersonating me and is asking me to contact X support Via Discord 🤣. I didnt know that @X support operates on Discord. Consider yourself warned ⚠️⚠️⚠️

@paullydoughnuts This is basically every table at card shows. Paying 75-80% and selling for 100%+. I'm good.

Listen if you are a seller/flipper/business person in this hobby then don't be mad if a collector is just happy at staring at their cards all day...😂 Their price is their price and that’s ok 👌 The people that need a talking to are the fellow sellers/flippers/ business people who want to sell at 110% and buy at 75-80% ... I get it we all got to make our monies but if the ground rules are set at a table say best of luck and move on... there are plenty of people willing to work with you out there.

@GrandSalamiSC Simple, its Markeing for Topps. All these breakers that live on social media are constantly promoting Topps to the public. This is better than any internal marketing that Topps could ever have.

Geno Smith was so bad, he left a team that immediately goes on a super bowl run, and at the same time gets his new team the #1 pick. No team should employ this man
