Graig of  @MidLifeCards  joins Mike Petty and Tony of  @SouthernCollector14  on the Odd Couple this month. The guys discuss who may be overrated in Sports Cards, and Mike Petty goes nuclear!!#sportscards #baseballcards

Episode 13 of The Hangover gets surprisingly deep.Why do we collect in the first place? Is it the hunt? The ownership? The satisfaction of finding something that took years to track down? Is collecting connected to our childhood, our competitive instincts, our need to express ourselves, or even our desire for status?Jeremy Lee and David Chase dig into the psychology behind collecting and the different stages of the collecting journey, from research and discovery to the chase, ownership, curation and eventually moving on. We also ask a fascinating question: if you had to choose just three cards to explain who you are as a collector, which three would they be?Then we get into grading, eye appeal and the enormous premiums attached to high-grade cards. Why can a beautiful low-grade vintage card offer so much more value? Why pay an enormous premium for a PSA 10 when the difference from a lower grade may be almost impossible to see? And if a card was submitted three times as a PSA 9 before finally becoming a PSA 10, does the next buyer deserve to know?That leads us into "hobby fraud," repeated submissions, disclosure, the hobby's obsession with the number on the slab, and the growing appeal of buying the card instead of buying the grade.Plus, David shows off a couple of recent non-sports pickups, including a very cool and extremely low-pop Tupac card.The Hangover is exclusive to the Sports Card Clubhouse.👉 Subscribe to Sports Card Clubhouse on YouTube and wherever you listen to podcasts.👉 Subscribe to Sports Cards Live for weekly long-form hobby conversations, interviews and analysis.👉 Follow Jeremy on Instagram: @jlee_sportscardslive, @jlee_cards👉 Follow David on Instagram: @davidchasecardsLet us know in the comments: **Why do YOU collect?

The Hangover is back, and this week it's just Jeremy Lee and David Chase digging into a little bit of everything that makes the hobby so much fun, frustrating and fascinating.We start with the $1.338 million sale of the restored, die-cut T206 Honus Wagner. Was that a bargain? Did the restoration actually increase its value? And what exactly separates an altered card from a restored card anyway? The sale gives us a chance to revisit one of the hobby's most controversial conversations with an actual result now on the books.Then David finally unveils the rest of his National pickups, and his collecting has changed dramatically. Willie Mays. George Mikan. Wilt Chamberlain. Jim Brown. Diego Maradona. Walt Disney. Mickey Mouse. Elvis Presley. Batman. The Goonies. Leonardo da Vinci. Yes, Leonardo da Vinci.A year ago, David left The National with seven major cards, almost entirely sports. This year he bought 29 spanning baseball, Disney, comics, music, movies, soccer, art and even a Muppet. That leads us into a much bigger conversation: Are vintage non-sports cards one of the most interesting and overlooked areas of the hobby right now?We also get into eye appeal, using cards as "card capital," buying the card instead of the grade, the growing suspicion surrounding freshly graded vintage cards, and whether you can ever really know if a card in your collection has been worked on.Finally, we return to the pricing debate coming out of The National. Are dealers really overpriced, or do buyers need to get better at building relationships and negotiating? When does a comp actually matter? Should one four-month-old sale determine the value of a rare card today? And at what point does negotiating turn into squeezing every last dollar out of a deal?It's another wide-ranging Hangover where the cards lead the conversation wherever it wants to go.The Hangover is exclusive Sports Cards Live content available on the Sports Card Clubhouse platforms.Subscribe to Sports Card Clubhouse for every episode of The Hangover, and subscribe to Sports Cards Live for live hobby conversations, interviews and more.Follow Jeremy Lee on Instagram: @jlee_sportscardsliveFollow David Chase on Instagram: @davidchasecardsIf you enjoy the show, please like, subscribe, comment and share.

Mike of Junk Wax Hero and Graig of Midlife Cards take on another episode of Surface Issues, where they discuss whether we can believe the SGC hype. They also talked about if comps are dead, and insane values in 1990s cards.
