In this episode Hank & Mick discuss selling cards and the variety of platforms we use in Australia and overseas. From everything from Ebay, Fanatics Collect, Alt, Consignment services, FaceBook Marketplace and selling at Card Shows - we cover it all. We also discuss the benefits of selling buy-it-now versus Auction.

Selling cards is an important step for most of us in building our collections, and its a tricky space for us in Australia as we lack the auction sites and ebay.com eyeballs of our American counterparts. Hopefully this chat helps shed the light on the varied ways you can sell your cards to help build up your collection... or pay off your new house (Hank would rather keep the money in cardboard, but thats life.)

In this episode, Hank and Mick take a good, hard look at their biggest mistakes collecting sports cards and TCG the last 5 years. They discuss buying Pokemon cards at the top of the market (in the covid boom), buying the wrong NBA player at the wrong time (yes, thats you Kawhi), buying too many base Prizm cards (again Kawhi), thinking that 2nd year cards were actually a thing (once again, Kawhi), and selling some things too early (Evolving Skies booster boxes), and other things too late.

They both agree that these lessons have been important in shaping their current collecting strategy. Hopefully our screw ups, can help you avoid them in the future. Enjoy.

In this episode, Hank and Mick dive into a discussion about the Sports Card Market versus the Pokemon/TCG Market. We discuss the current state of the Pokemon market, and our strategy for buying and selling in a hot market. We compare the size of the Pokemon market against that of the Sports Card Market. We chat about pop counts, sealed box prices, nostalgia and vintage versus modern TCG collecting.

Is Charizard Michael Jordan? Is Umbreon Lebron? Is Greninja SGA? Will Pokemon ever release serialized cards? Strap yourself in - this is a fun one.
