I can't offer the consumer perspective, but as a dealer when the doors opened on Friday there was a buzz and a rush I haven't experienced in a long time. I was busy the entire day Friday. Not always making sales, but talking with potential consignors, and just shooting the breeze with friends old and new. I also spent a lot of time trying to sell a card for a neighboring dealer just because I liked it so much, which I guess is weird lol.
Don't know if it was just because we were 12 miles down the road for 2 iterations of the Philly Show or what, but it just felt like the customers were more excited than they've been in a long time. Maybe Bryce Harper Euphoria?
