The conversation moves from Card Ladder and comps into a bigger, uncomfortable question: is opening modern product basically gambling, and what kind of culture do we actually want in the hobby going forward? Jeremy, Chris McGill (HoJ), and Josh Adams dig into group breaks, pack odds, “hits,” and the reality that some collectors have gone bankrupt chasing boxes. They balance that against the fun and nostalgia of ripping with kids, Tim Hortons packs, and building sets the way many of us did in the 80s and 90s. Along the way they tackle advertising, culture, and where the hobby goes next. Topics in this segment include: • PSA upcharges, comps, and why some people think PSA should have to buy your card at the value they assign• Arena Club criticism, “where collecting begins” marketing, and whether repack-centric products are aimed more at gamblers than collectors• Is opening any sealed product gambling, or does it depend on intent, price point, and expected return?• Pack odds, box price vs expected value, and why the emotional hit of losing on wax feels exactly like losing at the casino for some people• Breakers, gamblers, and the argument that the hobby “needs” high-volume product rippers to create singles for everyone else• Direct-to-consumer vs LCS distribution and whether cards should always come from packs or could one day go straight to auction• Getting more women in the hobby and how to treat everyone at shows as collectors first• What kind of culture shift the hobby actually needs: less divisiveness, more mutual understanding, more integrity from individuals and institutions, and less “my way is the only right way”• Leadership, voting with your wallet, and why content and conversations matter in shaping where the hobby goes next Sports Cards Live streams live on YouTube every Saturday night, and this audio comes from that live video show.

IN this installment of SCL the conversation turns to conflicts of interest, price guides, and how the hobby leans on data. Jeremy, Chris McGill (HoJ), and Josh Adams unpack a pointed question about Beckett running both a price guide and a grading company, and whether that structure was ever as conflicted as people now claim it to be. From there, they move into how PSA uses Card Ladder as one data source, what Card Ladder Value actually is, and why no single comp should ever be treated as “the” price of a card. Topics in this segment include: • Beckett's price guide plus grading model and whether the real concern is what would happen if someone launched that structure today• How conflicts exist everywhere in business and why safeguards and transparency matter more than pretending they do not• Chris's breakdown of Card Ladder Value, confidence levels, and why different sales of the same card can show different CL values• Dan's Gene Hackman one-of-one example and why getting a “good buy” can make algorithmic estimates look off• The problem with overreliance on comps and why the hobby is nothing like an efficient stock market• How shill bidding, thin markets, and buyer ignorance can distort individual sales• Josh's card show story about sellers who freeze when there is no recent comp and what real critical thinking should look like• Arena Club's “where collecting begins” slogan and a candid debate on repacks, gambling, and what collecting actually is• Whether Card Ladder is a price guide or simply a historical data tool that PSA and others use for due diligence Sports Cards Live streams live on YouTube every Saturday night, and this audio comes from that live video show.

What should a fair sports card auction actually look like if you are the buyer, not the consignor or the house? In this segment, Chris McGill (Card Ladder) and Josh Adams (90sAuctions) join Jeremy and attorney Paul Lesko to talk about auction environments collectors actually want to bid in, why hidden reserves and owner bidding feel wrong, and how 90sAuctions approaches consignor bidding and reserves. From there the conversation shifts to comp culture, why so many people try to apply comps with false precision, and how data tools like Card Ladder can help if you are willing to dig into context instead of outsourcing your thinking. Jeremy also connects it back to his upcoming book POPs and COMPs and the idea that not all comps are created equal. In this segment you will hear about: Chris's ideal auction setting, only bidding against other true buyers How auction reserves and undisclosed owner bidding change the whole game Josh on why 90sAuctions banned consignor bidding and walked away from reserves Why buyers and sellers lean so hard on the last comp in 2025 How to look at comps with real scrutiny so you do not get burned by bad data Sponsor notes:  Go to ⁠⁠hellofresh.com/cards10fm⁠⁠ to get 10 free meals plus free breakfast for life, one per box.

In this episode of Card Ladder Confidential, Brett sits down with Chris and Josh from Card Ladder for a collector's conversation that hits every corner of the hobby. They start with what they're thankful for, move into Josh's viral post about keeping the hobby about cards—not crypto or stocks—and unpack why financial talk often drowns out what makes collecting meaningful.The group explores the long-term health of the hobby, the fine line between investing and collecting, and the growing influence of gambling culture in cards. Chris shares his framework for what helps and hurts the hobby, while Josh calls out the risks of gamification and how it impacts the average collector.They also go deep on one-of-ones, rarity systems, and why the first year matters—using examples like the 1997–98 Flair Showcase Legacy Collection Kobe Bryant 1/1 and the 2012 Prizm Black Finite DeMarco Murray.

Sports Cards Live episode 287, Part 1. Jeremy sits down with Joe Poirot to kick off the night, then Leighton Sheldon jumps in for a deep dive on the headline sale of the 1914 Baltimore News Babe Ruth that just hammered around 4M after a prior 7.2M comp. We unpack why rare does not always equal iconic, how schedule issues compare to Goudey Ruths, and what “value” means when a card trades so infrequently. From there we zoom out to the auction landscape: shill bidding realities, house bidding on behalf of consignors, and reserves—how they work, where they are disclosed, and how buyers can protect themselves. Jeremy shares a Classic Auctions mail day, completing a 1952 Parkhurst “flight” with Rocket Richard alongside Gordie Howe, Terry Sawchuk, and Tim Horton, plus a fun pickup of game-used Mats Sundin gloves. We also touch on Probstein moving off eBay to SNYPE, Fanatics vault strategies, and using Card Ladder to sanity-check comps. What you'll learn Why the Baltimore News Ruth can lag iconic appeal despite extreme rarity How auction house reserves and house bids can affect bidding behavior Practical tactics to limit shill exposure set a ceiling price and stick to it How “flight collecting” works as a middle path between set and type collecting Vintage hockey targets in 1951–52 Parkhurst and why they resonate Learn more about your ad choices.
