Sold a bunch of cards which is always nice but now that baseball season is over I’m struggling to find good inventory.

90-100 business days is 4-5 months. But at least they seem to be making progress. I hope they have the capacity for reopening value tiers.
BREAKING: BIG changes happening at PSA 👀 Starting today, PSA is cutting estimated turnaround times by 20 business days for Standard (70–80 days) and Priority (50–60 days) grading submissions. Tomorrow, PSA's $39.99 Value grading tier officially returns, with an estimated 90–100 business day turnaround and a $500 maximum insured value. PSA also says its backlog has dropped to 7.2 million items as it works toward fully reopening all service levels, including Value Bulk.

Charizard can’t tear his ACL.
Just in: Minnesota Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards will undergo an arthroscopic procedure on his ailing right knee and miss up to two months, sources tell ESPN.

Just looked through the Cosmic Chrome checklist. The Mars Attacks inserts with Ohtani, Acuña and some of the top rookies are pretty cool. Definitely not something I expected to see in a baseball product.

Very curious to see how this goes.
Bought 13 different parelles of this card Friday. They are already going $20+ what’s the over/under on how many actually ship?

A restored T206 Wagner just sold for $1.98M. Almost exactly what it sold for last year. Pretty interesting to see a card that rare trade three times without much price movement.

Trying to move this PCA rookie auto refractor /499. Last sale was $1000 but this one has some upper right corner damage so won’t gem. Would do $850 if anyone is interested. RTs always appreciated!

This is going to be an issue for a while. I expect lawsuits.
We've shared an update on the investigation into stolen PSA shipments. psacard.click/CommunityUpdat…

Oops!
Does the new @Topps Holiday football have a “Bill Ripken-esk” error on their hands? Dak Prescott’s wrist tape clearly reads “Fuck Cancer!” 👀

Chourio and Caminero playing against each other in the World Series is going to be interesting for the hobby. Both already have pretty strong card markets. Curious how much a ring moves the needle for either one.

I thought Topps Holiday was supposed to be a cheap, fun rip. A basic relic being 1 in 3,764 packs is pretty ridiculous for that kind of product.

I get it. I hate it but I get it.
Bowl source: “Can you make a business model consistently w/teams like, say, Northwestern & Mississippi State? You think a 6-6 Michigan or Tennessee would want to go to a bowl game? In today’s world they would be cleaning house, coaches, players, everybody.”

Bullish.
Andrew Friedman said surgery is "not on the table" for Shohei Ohtani. Said it was "whack a mole" between the knee, then the biceps throughout the year. Friedman: "I fully expect him to pitch next year."

These Prize Pick rips might be the worst odds I’ve ever seen. They’ve got 25 cent cards lol.

CardsHQ literally does this exact thing.
I don’t like this… @darrenrovell reports that PrizePicks was the buyer of the Flagg, Harper & Knueppel Debut Patches. They paid $13 million for 3 cards… to possibly put them in repacks?? I would MUCH rather see them go into a high-end collection. If they’re put in repacks, they’ll be resold again, and the cycle will continue. These cards are really special. They should be treated as such.

CardsHQ advertises that it buys cards at 70% comps but Geoff is complaining about another company paying millions for three cards? Bro look in the mirror.

There’s always a bigger fish.

Nothing better than taking a loss on one card that wipes out the profits from your last 3-4 sales.

Moneyball.
You can’t say Rocky, Remember the Titans, Coach Carter, or The Sandlot. What’s the greatest sports movie of all time?
