Liquidity, Fatigue, and Hobby Confidence in 2025


Listen Later

In Part 3 of Episode 277, Jeremy and Joe zoom out from specific shows to explore what collectors are really doing in today’s hobby landscape — and what that says about confidence, fatigue, and liquidity.

They’re joined early in the segment by Canadian dealer Grant Patterson, who shares his real-world take on what’s moving, what’s not, and how the energy of the market is shifting. His insights set the stage for a broader discussion on the behaviors and signals dealers and collectors should be paying attention to right now.

Topics include:

  • Grant Patterson on collector mood, liquidity, and setting up at shows

  • Why it’s easy to confuse hobby fatigue with hobby evolution

  • The gap between social media narratives and on-the-ground reality

  • How collector buying has become more strategic — and more personal

  • Why liquidity issues can mask healthy demand

  • What slower sales may actually reflect about inventory, pricing, and trust

  • Tips for dealers misreading today’s buyer psychology

    If you're trying to separate signal from noise in 2025, this segment brings clarity without hype.
