Podcasts about Upper deck

Dr. Beckett and this week's Hobby Hotline crew (Adam Palmer and Tony TJ is Online) discuss news that Michael Jordan has extended his exclusive legacy partnership with Upper Deck, including Goodwin Champions redemptions for signed 1986 Fleer basketball wax packs and an eBay-auctioned 1-of-1 signed 1986 Fleer box with 10% of proceeds going to the Boys and Girls Clubs Foundation. They debate opening versus keeping the packs sealed, note old pack “searchability,” and compare the concept to Topps' Mickey Mantle nostalgia redemption. They also cover Topps/Fanatics testing pre-ordered Topps Chrome Update mega boxes sold without shrink wrap, focusing on tamper concerns, scams, pricing, and whether it helps collectors buy at retail. The episode closes with thoughts on the collector tension between buying singles and unopened product and why boxes must be opened for singles to exist.   01:07 Jordan and Upper Deck Deal 01:18 Signed Fleer Pack Redemptions 03:07 Open or Keep Sealed 04:27 Nostalgia Redemption Trend 05:33 Why Partner Matters 08:24 Jordan Market Heat 09:44 Topps No Shrink Wrap Test 11:41 Tampering and Trust Issues 12:50 Pricing and Scalper Impact 15:25 Singles Versus Sealed Debate

Hour 2 features plenty of discussion across the sports world, starting with Lionel Messi continuing to carry Argentina at age 39 and strengthening his case as the greatest soccer player of all time. Joe Rose and the guys debate Messi's legacy, his separation from Cristiano Ronaldo, and how incredible it is that he continues to deliver on the biggest stage. The conversation shifts to the ongoing LeBron James free agency watch, with reports that LeBron isn't prioritizing money, though Joe questions whether he would really accept a significant pay cut. The guys also discuss Chris Carter's airline dispute, World Cup officiating controversy after Egypt's loss to Argentina, and defend Marlins manager Clayton McCullough amid criticism, explaining why he deserves credit for the team's success. The hour wraps up with Hollywood's Headlines, including the massive bidding war for future World Cup broadcasting rights, a company searching through the trash after Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift's wedding, and Michael Jordan extending his partnership with Upper Deck.

What is the number one mistake collectors make when sending cards to PSA? In this exclusive interview inside the Arena Club Studio at Cards HQ, I sit down with PSA Executive Chris Carlin to demystify the grading process and give you a massive advantage on your next submission. Whether you are grading high-end vintage sports cards or ultramodern TCG, understanding how PSA operates behind the scenes is crucial for maximizing your card's value. Chris breaks down the internal workings of the grading room, the psychology behind population reports, and the specific things graders look for that most collectors completely miss. We also tackle the hobby's most controversial topics head-on, from upcharges and grading consistency to the highly debated "crack and resubmit" culture. In this episode, we cover: The Biggest Grading Mistake: Why overlooking a card's surface (shim lines, thumbnail prints, and hidden creases) is the easiest way to ruin your chances of a PSA 10. Pop Reports & Counterfeits: The truth behind population report scarcity versus real market demand, plus the alarming rise of highly sophisticated fake Pokmon booster boxes and forged Mickey Mantle autographs. Cracking & Resubmitting: Is cracking a PSA 9 to chase a PSA 10 actually worth the risk? We discuss the psychology of the "crack out" game and when to use PSA's Review Service instead. Upcharges & Consistency: Why PSA issues price adjustments, the power of their comprehensive grade guarantee, and how they train graders for six months to maintain consistency while processing 100,000 cards a day. The Future of the Hobby: How eBay integration and the Set Registry are evolving, plus why alternative assets like graded Sports Illustrated magazines, comic books, and One Piece TCG are exploding in popularity. Rare Hobby History: Chris shares incredible authenticated pieces from his personal collection, including a 1976 Topps player contract and an iconic internal memo from Upper Deck's founder.

Upper Deck President Jason Masherah joins the show to break down one of the biggest moments in hobby history, the $4.25M Michael Jordan card sale. We dive into what makes this card so iconic, why it continues to set records decades later, and what it says about the current market. Jason also pulls back the curtain on sports memorabilia authentication, including how to spot real from fake, why authentication matters more than ever, and the risks collectors are taking without even realizing it. Plus, we get into: The most undervalued areas of the hobby right now How Upper Deck approaches scarcity, pricing, and collectors Why some memorabilia may actually be a better value than cards today And what the future of the hobby could look like If you collect cards or memorabilia, this is a must-listen.
