This week, I’m joined by Justin (@outofsteptrading), a collector who does things his own way. His collection stands out, built around NASCAR legends like Dale Earnhardt and Richard Petty. But there’s more to it than that.

Justin’s approach to collecting is different. He focuses on what he loves, not what’s popular. In this episode, we get into why he embraces being "out of step" with the mainstream hobby, how his passion for punk and hardcore music influences his collecting, and what makes NASCAR cards unique.

We also talk about:

• How nostalgia and personal history shape collecting choices
• Why the NASCAR card community feels different from other segments of the hobby
• The challenges and rewards of collecting in a niche space

If you’re looking for a fresh perspective on collecting, this one’s for you.
