Hot Potato Era, Flippers vs Collectors, and Rookie Card Confusion

We shift from rookie-year labeling debates to the modern marketplace: the “Hot Potato Era,” flipping vs curating, and whether today's changes help sellers more than collectors. We also unpack Tiffany vs Star distribution, value obsession in hobby content, and the longevity vs greatness debate across eras. Highlights Tiffany vs Star cleared up: factory-set Tiffany vs team-bag Star, and why distribution rules complicate “rookie” status The Hot Potato Era: cards resold within days, instant “resell” buttons, and PSA-to-market liquidity without touching the card Flipper vs curator: moving inventory for profit vs actively upgrading a personal collection The content effect: “I spent $50,000” thumbnails, sensationalism, and how it shapes newcomers' expectations Value vs appreciation: the watch-collector analogy and Iowa Dave's prompt to rank your top cards by meaning, not money Private whales exist: the low-visibility collector with a T206 Wagner and why many serious collectors stay off-camera Are flippers good for the ecosystem? Card finders who surface hard-to-find PC targets across shows and regions Do hobby leaders want growth or guardrails? Protecting new entrants vs chasing headlines Longevity vs greatness: Kareem's MJ vs LeBron framing, Sandy Koufax's peak, Pujols first 10 vs second 10, and why era normalization matters Era traps in stats: dead-ball realities, ballpark dimensions, lowered mound, pitch-speed measurement changes, and why all-time lists are tricky “Everything helps sellers” debate: box prices, eBay authentication and resell tools, buyer's premiums vs collector benefits Counterpoints: liquidity is higher than ever, more leverage with auction houses, easier buying and selling for everyday collectors Open challenge: what could manufacturers, graders, and marketplaces do that truly benefits collectors without reducing profits?

Episode 98: The Exakta Episode

It has been a couple of weeks but the gang finally got back together to devote an entire episode to one of our favorite, and longest lived camera brands, the Ihagee Exakta.  If you are familiar with the Exakta name, you probably know them as a maker of high end, but very quirky 35mm SLRs, however there were far more Exaktas produced in the 20th century using three different forms of film and nine different lens mounts.  In Episode 98, the Camerosity Podcast hosts do their best to try and corral all those models and history into a single episode. Joining Anthony, Stephen, Paul, and Mike are returning and first time callers Daniel from Chicago, Eric Lorenz, Fernando Villava, Howard Sandler, Ira Cohen, Michael Boudreau, Mike Toppo, Pat Casey, and Phil Clark. We were unable to find an expert who could speak intelligently on the history and wide range of Exakta models made, so Mike did his best to cover the history, starting with how the company formed, and we go (mostly) in chronological order from the first 127 Vest Pocket Exaktas, the Night Exaktas, the early Kine Exaktas, into the Varex models, the redesigned VX1000 and Elbeflex models, and into the weeds with uncommon cameras like the Exakta Real, Exakta Twin TL, and some other Japanese and Chinese made models. In addition to the Ihagee Exakta, we also dedicate a bit of time to the Exakta's little brother, the Exa, covering that models strengths and weaknesses.  We attempt to explain how the shutter on early Exas work, and Mike tells a story of a hard to find "System Exa" that's not even made by Ihagee at all. Many questions were asked with varying levels of good answers, including how many lens mounts can be found on an Exakta camera, how many different companies produced Exakta cameras, what is the best introduction to the Exakta lineup, and whether or not Exaktas are good for shooting or just for collecting.  We even spend some time on the infamous Exaka with 400mm Kilfitt lens found in the Hollywood classic movie, Rear Window. And just to round it all off, we spend the end of the episode on the Topcon SLRs which use the Exakta mount, including whether all lenses are fully compatible between the two company's models. As always, the topics we discuss on the Camerosity Podcast are influenced by you!  Please don't feel like you have to be an expert on a specific type of camera, or have the level of knowledge on par with other people on the show.  We LOVE people who are into shooting or collecting cameras, no matter how long you've been doing it, so please don't consider your knowledge level to be a prerequisite for joining! The guys and I rarely know where each episode is going to go until it happens, so if you'd like to join us on a future episode, be sure to look out for our show announcements on our Camerosity Podcast Facebook page, the Camerosity Discord server, and right here on mikeeckman.com. We usually record every other Monday and announcements, along with the Zoom link are typically shared 2-3 days in advance. The last several episodes of the show have been wonderfully exciting and informational.  We've had a huge number of guests, many of whom are first time callers who joined a long list of people who have contributed to this show.  And while all the hosts enjoy chatting with all of you, we haven't had an episode to ourselves in a while, so for Episode 99, we are not taking any callers.  We want to spend this time to get caught up on what we've been doing, share with you some of the private discussions we have behind closed doors, but mostly, we're looking for an episode that's easier to edit. Don't worry though, for the next, next episode, we hit triple digits, episode number 100.  It gives me chills just typing that here.  We will be looking for something special for our centennial episode and once we know what that is, and what date we are recording it, we will be sure to let you all know!  Until then, Episode 99 will be recorded sometime in early October. In This Episode Exaktas Are an Accidental Collection / Mike Had Wanted to Do an Exakta Show with Hugo Ruys Did Ihagee Ever Make Their Own Lenses? / Canon Once Made a Lens Using the Exakta Mount Did Other Companies Make Cameras that Use the Exakta Mount?

Bobby Goldsboro: The Story Behind “Honey” and His Legendary Career

A Breath of Fresh Air

In 1968 while Joplin, Hendrix, the Doors and Jefferson Airplane were singing about sex, drugs and rock ‘n' roll, Bobby Goldsboro was singing about “Honey.” After a career in which he sold more than 35 million records, hosted a national TV show, wrote six best-selling children's books and produced a national PBS show, you'd think the almost 85 year old Goldsboro would be winding down. Think again.Bobby Goldsboro was born in the small town of Marianna, Florida. Growing up in a modest setting, he discovered a love for music at an early age. By the time he was a teenager, he was already playing guitar and dreaming about a life in the spotlight. After high school, Bobby attended University but quickly found himself drawn more to music than academics. That passion led him to join a band called The Webs—the first real stepping stone to his career.The Webs were talented enough to catch the attention of rock legend Roy Orbison. In 1962, Orbison invited the band to back him on tour. Bobby suddenly found himself on the road with one of the most iconic voices in rock history, gaining invaluable experience. For two years, he traveled the world with Orbison, honing his skills and learning the ins and outs of the music business. In 1964, Bobby launched his solo career, and his very first single, “See the Funny Little Clown,” became a hit. The song shot into the Top 10 and introduced his unique, heartfelt vocal style to the world. More singles followed that proved he wasn't a one-hit wonder. Everything changed in 1968 with the release of “Honey.” The emotional ballad tells the story of a man grieving the loss of his wife. Goldsboro's tender delivery turned it into a cultural phenomenon. The song spent five weeks at No. 1 and became one of the decade's best-selling singles, topping charts worldwide. Love it or find it schmultzy “Honey” defined Bobby Goldsboro's career and remains his signature song.Though “Honey” was his biggest success, Bobby continued to deliver memorable music. Songs like “Summer (The First Time)” and “Watching Scotty Grow” touched audiences everywhere. Bobby's tracks showcased his versatility, blending country, pop, and folk influences while always keeping the storytelling front and centre.During the '70s, Bobby expanded his career beyond the recording studio. He became the host of The Bobby Goldsboro Show, a syndicated musical variety program that ran for several years. It highlighted his warmth, charm, and sense of humour—qualities that endeared him to audiences far beyond his music.As the '80s rolled in, Bobby gradually stepped away from the spotlight of hit records and touring. But creativity still flowed. He turned his attention to painting, creating detailed wildlife and landscape art that quickly gained recognition. Collectors admired his work, and he established himself as a respected visual artist.He also ventured into children's programming, producing the animated series The Swamp Critters of Lost Lagoon.What makes Bobby Goldsboro special is the emotional connection he forges with his audience. He has a rare ability to capture universal feelings in simple, beautiful ways. His soft, vulnerable voice made listeners feel like he was singing directly to them, a gift that explains why his songs have endured for so long.Today, Bobby Goldsboro may no longer dominate the charts, but his influence is undeniable. He continues to paint, create, and inspire, while fans old and new revisit his music with appreciation. His career is a reminder that creativity comes in many forms and that an artist's legacy isn't defined by a single moment, but by a lifetime of work.Tune in to hear Bobby relive the story of his career and let him take you back to your youth, to a time when his songs dominated the charts.Please reach out to me with any comments or feedback through the website https://www.abreathoffreshair.com.au

Summary: What does conservation look like for the Aba aba? Join Kiersten to find out!   For my hearing impaired followers, a complete transcript of this podcast follows the show notes on Podbean   Show Notes:  Music written and performed by Katherine Camp   Transcript (Piano music plays) Kiersten - This is Ten Things I Like About…a ten minute, ten episode podcast about unknown or misunderstood wildlife. (Piano music stops)   Kiersten - Welcome to Ten Things I Like About… I'm Kiersten, your host, and this is a podcast about misunderstood or unknown creatures in nature. Some we'll find right out side our doors and some are continents away but all are fascinating.  This podcast will focus ten, ten minute episodes on different animals and their amazing characteristics. Please join me on this extraordinary journey, you won't regret it. We have made it to our tenth and final episode of Aba aba. I hope you have enjoyed our journey with Gymnarchus niloticus, come on you have to admit, it is fun to say that, because I have had a blast talking about this amazing fish. The tenth thing I like about this unbelievably cool fish is conservation. As any of my longtime listeners know, I typically use the last episode to talk about the conservation status of the current animal or plant that we are discussing. This is the whole reason I started this podcast in the first place, to bring awareness to the animals and plants with whom we share this planet. We have to learn to live together if we are going to be good stewards of this amazing planet. Before we can learn to live together, we have to know what's out there that is worth fighting for, and all the animals and plants I talk about are worth fighting for. Let's talk about what conservation looks like for the Aba aba. When we look at the IUCN Red List, the International Union for Conservation of Nature, Gymnarchus niloticus is listed as Least Concern. This means that no conservation efforts need be taken at this time. The last time that the overall population of the Aba aba was assessed was in 2019, so this information needs some updating. The North African population was last assessed in 2007 and is also listed as Least Concern, but once again we need updated information for this population. The Western African population was last assessed in 2006 and is currently listed as Least Concern. The Eastern African population was last assessed in 2003 and is listed as Vulnerable. Vulnerable means that adult population numbers are decreasing.  Overall and in the Western and Northern populations the population trends are unknown, so the Least Concern classification may be incorrect. What's interesting is that the Eastern population that is labeled Vulnerable also has no population trend data. What does this mean? It means we really don't know how many aba aba are out there and if they are holding their own as our plants changes. The IUCN does list the threats to the Aba aba and those include dams, water pollution related to the military and agricultural industry, logging and wood harvesting destruction of habitat, and overfishing. Natural climate impacts are droughts. The Aba aba relies on the seasonal flooding of rivers for breeding season. The overfishing impacts the Eastern population because the local humans use Aba aba as a food source in this region. Currently there are no conservation plans being implemented in any regions of residence, with the exception of small grassroots campaign in the Eastern population region informing local fishers about the risks of overfishing the Aba aba.  Another threat to the wild population of the Aba aba in collection for the aquarium industry. Gymnarchs niloticus is a fascinating fish that many people fall in love with when they see them in a zoo or aquarium or learn about them from educational resources like this podcast. It's great to develop an appreciation for nature after learning about a specific specie, but letting that appreciation grow into a need to possess that species can be disastrous. As I talked about in the last episode, Aba abas are not suitable for the home aquarium, but the market still exists. Some people think they can make it work even if they don't have the correct size tank, or offer the type of food they need, or realize how dangerous Aba abas can be. They purchase a fish. And when it dies, they purchase another and so on and so on. Most of the time the Aba abas collected are so small and fragile that they are bound to die in transport or in the home aquarium.  Collectors will come back for more and they aren't just taking a few out of each nest they come across, they are taking all the babies and may even kill the adults to sell for food.  There is some discussion about how to create an aquaculture program with Aba aba in response to the use of Aba abas as food. Whether this would work or not is yet to be seen since no one has tried to raise Aba abas in a captive situation. One study implied that using Tilapia and Aba aba in a dual aquaculture program might work. Tilapia breed easily and in large numbers in captivity already. The Aba aba could be held with the Tilapia, eat some of the young but not all of them. This situation only deals with one side of the process though. How do we get the Aba aba to breed in captivity? Until that problem is solved, I do not think we'll be aquaculturing Aba aba anytime soon. So what can we do right now to help the Aba aba? First, do not support the set trade. Let them stay wild. Second, tell their story. The best way to ensure that they survive into the future is to get people to care about them, and, as you know listeners, you must know about something before you can care about it, and when you care about it, you'll fight for it. Thank you for joining me to learn about the Aba aba in this series. My tenth favorite thing about them is conservation. I hope you take this information about the amazing fish and tell everyone you know about them, so we'll have them far into the future.   If you're enjoying this podcast please recommend me to friends and family and take a moment to give me a rating on whatever platform your listening. It will help me reach more listeners and give the animals I talk about an even better chance at change.  Join me in two weeks for another new series about and unknown or misunderstood creature.        (Piano Music plays)  This has been an episode of Ten Things I like About with Kiersten and Company.

Jeremy and Leighton open Part 2 by tackling the “priced out” question head-on before Mike Zier jumps in with a candid collector's perspective from the trenches, selling down, shifting to singles, and finding peace without chasing every comp. We get real about wax FOMO vs. expected value, what “being in the hobby” actually means, how to cope when prices outpace budgets, and why it's okay to love cards without loving the market. Leighton bows out midway; Jeremy and Mike keep it rolling with practical strategies regular collectors can use right now. Highlights “Adapt or get out?” unpacked: what staying looks like when wax is $500–$800 Singles over wax: maximizing joy and minimizing regret The dopamine problem: ripping vs. actually getting the cards you want Feeling underappreciated as a long-timer, and moving forward anyway Tracking every cent vs. ignoring the ticker: two healthy mindsets Using eBay solds as simple comps (and when to skip comps entirely) If you enjoy honest talk about budgets, wax vs. singles, and collecting for joy (not just headlines), this episode is for you.
