For those who didn't want to watch the video (I do recommend it), here is the premise/highlights:
What is the pulse of the hobby right now? Lower excitement of the hobby. Why are collectors selling? Some need money and some want to get out of the hobby "while they can." Status of dealers, how are they feeling? General malaise in the hobby. Many pressures on the card market right now. Sellers are outnumbering buyers at higher levels. For buyers, should they buy now or wait 6 months when things will be cheaper? Card shops that opened in the last few years are closing up this year. Are you currently buying? People bought high and won't sell low. Will modern collectors move into vintage? It takes work for young collectors to research older players. Last edited by parkplace33; 11-02-2022 at 01:12 PM. |
