Packers Training Camp Week 1: Standouts, Position Battles & Micah Parsons Timeline | Rob Demovsky

The sports card market is always changing, and this week on The Man Cave Podcast, Dan Kasper catches up with Ty from Slab Factory to break down what’s happening across the hobby.

Are collectors moving away from prospecting and back toward established legends? Ty explains the rise of the “GOAT market” and why cards featuring names like Michael Jordan, Barry Sanders, Peyton Manning, Shaquille O’Neal and other all-time greats are starting to see renewed interest. The guys also discuss whether there could ever be another Tom Brady-type investment and why Brock Purdy could be an intriguing name for collectors.

Then they dive deep into the world of grading and authentication, including the controversial Mike Baker Authentication “Diamond Crossover” certification, PSA’s blue autograph labels and the massive premiums attached to Beckett Black Labels. You’ll also hear the incredible story of a Pokémon card that sold for more than $200,000 because only two copies received a Beckett Black Label.

Ty also brings in some of his latest pickups, including a Christian Watson one-of-one autograph, Penny Hardaway inserts and some examples of how collectors can find cards priced below recent sales.

Plus, Dan and Ty talk about how to properly research card values, why you should pay attention to actual sales instead of eBay asking prices, how tools like Card Ladder and 130 Point can help, and a simple trick for determining whether a player's overall card market is trending up or down.

If you're a collector, investor, flipper or just getting back into the hobby, there's plenty to take away from this episode.

Ty from Slab Factory joins The Man Cave Podcast to talk all things sports cards and collecting.

We kick things off with a look back at the first-ever Packs & Pints event at The Brewing Projekt, including why getting kids and families involved in the hobby was such a big focus—and why the event exceeded expectations.

Then we dive into the current sports-card market, including Matthew Golden, Jesus Madej, Cooper Pratt and George Lombard, and whether buying cards of young players before they become stars can pay off. We also discuss the growing popularity of Topps' Mount Rushmore inserts, the thrill—and risk—of opening vintage packs, and some of the biggest cards in the hobby that are still out there somewhere.

Ty also breaks down why modern cards can sometimes sell for more than cards of legends like Hank Aaron, the importance of rarity versus current hype, and the ultimate Babe Ruth "grail" card.

Plus, we answer listener questions about vintage unopened boxes and what makes a card truly valuable.

It's another deep dive into the sports-card hobby on The Man Cave Podcast.
