PSA’s backlog is getting BIGGER — not smaller. What does that mean for sports card collectors? And with Michael Jordan cards exploding in popularity, are Star Jordan cards a BUY or a SELL?

In this episode of the Collector Investor Podcast, Theo and Jeremy recap their experience as vendors at The National Sports Collectors Convention and break down some of the biggest stories coming out of the show.

PSA was absolutely slammed at The National, with collectors racing to get into submission lines before PSA ultimately stopped accepting submissions. We discuss PSA’s reported 12.4 MILLION card backlog, grading turnaround times, pricing, grading consistency, and what could happen when lower-priced submission tiers reopen.

Then we turn to Michael Jordan. Jordan cards were one of the hottest areas of The National, but should collectors be looking beyond the famous 1986 Fleer and toward his Star Company cards? We discuss rarity, population, the Star vs. Fleer debate, and which Jordan cards we personally prefer.

We also talk about the National venue, the YouTube community get-together, answer viewer questions, and preview some of the cards in the upcoming Collector Investor Auctions August Auction.
