Trading Card Therapy

Acquiring Ungraded


Listen Later

On today’s episode, host Leighton Sheldon discusses how to buy and access ungraded card collections. There are quite a few challenges that you should be aware of if you are in the market, especially if you are acquiring vintage. Our story begins with a collection that Just Collect just took in and the process we used to acquire it. The most important starting point is identifying what cards are in the collection and setting an early expectation of value in the open market. This leads to a more transparent process when you make your offer to purchase. Our process led us to create a spreadsheet with every card itemized with the perceived grade and value, again which adds to transparency and reputation.

We close the show with some big news coming from Netflix.A new show from the team behind Pawn Stars will be coming to the network, featuring Ken Goldin. There has been concern from the community as to how this show could influence and impact the market. Your advice from The Doctor is… Things will be OK. That being said, there will undoubtedly be many more eyes and wallets coming into the hobby. Be ready for there to be a huge impact on some of the big items in the market. Thin your hoard and be prepared for a shift in the market, as without a doubt, WINTER IS COMING.
