From incredible finds to frustrating experiences, Jade and Crimson dive into the current state of trading card game shows and one of the hottest topics in the hobby: scalping.

In this episode, they discuss what makes TCG shows such a great place for collectors, players, and vendors, while also exploring how scalping impacts availability, pricing, and the overall community. Is it simply part of the market, or is it pushing genuine collectors out of the hobby?

Join Jade and Crimson as they share their own experiences, discuss the changing landscape of conventions and card shows, and offer their perspective on where the hobby is headed.

Whether you're a seasoned collector, a competitive player, or just getting into the world of trading cards, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.
