Very thorough and concise. Very helpful. Thank you.
is it better to have a 1/50 or 50/50
@@B1GG4M3R44 the hobby treats bookends fairly similarly, FOTP (first off the print) and LOTP (last off the print) are terms used but it's a perceived premium by collectors. Jersey match numbers are also popular and equivalently treated.
Has any one used the Marketmoversapp ?

As a 45 year old father and new to the hobby, I cannot thank you enough for these instructional videos. They have been ridiculously valuable, and my nine year old son and I watch at least one of your videos every single night before he goes to bed. Really appreciate you.
EXACTLY!!! I buy them for my son because he loves opening them. It does get pricey but to see him smile and get excited about opening them makes me happy. 😊😊😊
👍
Great vid.👍
Your show is not only informative but absolutely imperative to the early card collector! Thank you keeping such a great American tradition going!!
Indubitably the most comprehensive & informative video related to sports card collecting on TH-cam! Greatly appreciated.🤙🏽
So I haven't collected cards since the mid 90's and needed some education. My six year old son in wanting to start collecting, and I might as well be a rookie in this hobby again. I found this video and it's so incredibly helpful. The app is amazing as well. Thank you for this.....and Go Gators.
unless it`s the top 1% of players, Brady, Jordan etc. you will never get the money back that you invest unless you get the rare great deal. You will have difficulty selling your cards. Card shops are rare, ebay is a crap shoot. I`d collect for your enjoyment.
Ripping wax is so fun but addicting.
Thanx Geoff as usual. The productions are getting better by the day - very entertaining. Your "App" is a must for anyone who's investing in modern cards and attending numerous shows.
Excellent information. As someone who's collected in the past for fun but has run into alot of frustration with the hobby. It's nice to actually find someone who's willing to share the information and to help new and fellow collectors. Keep up the great work. Looking forward to learning alot more.
Buddy, this video is fantastic! I’m a veteran card collector of 1 week now lol and learned that the first 3 psa mint gem 10 cards (the only cards I now own) that I way over payed but it was fun buying them. The information you layed down in this vid is priceless…… thank you and I 100% subscribed
For someone that has jumped back in in the last year or so after a 15 year hiatus, this is great info. Thank you for the video.
Awesome job Geoff. I only got into the hobby October 2020 and I have learned a lot by myself. Everything you mentioned I already knew but this helps buyers make better decisions. Great, great, great video❗
As a brand new (only 2 weeks) collector) future investor, thank you so very much. This is the most helpful video ive found for people such as myself who has no clue what they're doing 😅
This video is a GemMint 10. Very comprehensive overview of the market. I’m an experienced collector/investor and I still found it valuable in pulling together a lot of important concepts.
lol
Messed up and bought an unlicensed product, didn’t even think about it until this video. Thanks for the info!
That was one hell of a breakdown. U can't get any better info than that, excellent 👌 job
I'm starting to love this channel and I'm a newbie..I'm gathering so much knowledge before making mistakes and there are wayyy more than I thought! So thank you for that. I come at the sports card world again after buying a small shoebox worth of cards 1990s football primarily but I bout from retail, mom and pop and even bought some cards off a friend who was a huge collector. I started scanning my box with the Ludex App and most were worth maybe 15c 70c or not much over $3 a good number were worth between $5-40....whether or not I command any such dollar online or at a card shop might not be likely but and ungraded but perhaps there's a couple.
Ty sir. Sharing your information has single handedly helped and fed my love for cards. Hats off to ya.
We were given two boxes of 80's and 90's baseball cards that our daughter ran across and combined them with our lot your videos have been a saving grace for my sanity. Thank you in your attempt to save my brain
As a Beginner collecting & maybe later on flipping some cards Gotta say love watch your videos all the info and Tips you give us Thank you 👍🏼
I was a huge sport card fan in the 90's I kinda stopped when my favorite card company Upper Deck went away. Now I see my little brother is into getting into the hobby & teaching me about all the different variants of cards & what to look out for. I'm in my late 40's & my eyes are not to keen on spotting defects on raw cards. With grading being so expensive I can't afford to pay high end money on a raw card & hope to get a 10.
walked into a shop today for the first time in 30 years, took my boys for their first time ever. thanks for the info as we hop into it! liked and subbed
Got back into it recently, and just doing it for fun ripping and PC. After watching his videos It has gotten me into the investment side of it, and its almost as much fun trying to find deals.
Geoff! Great info👍🏼.. same here ima 80’s, 90’s kid and Upper deck,Fleer,Skybox,Flair etc.. are cards that still hold on too as old as i am.. crazy variations nowadays!
Great advice on the breaks. I break a few times a week and it's mostly for entertainment/collecting not for investing.
So glad I found your channel. Great content, especially for someone who hasn't followed baseball nor bought a pack of cards over the past 20 years. I'm a junk wax kid as well and I've been dusting off my old collection and discovering how much has changed. Thanks for help catching me up! New subscriber here :)
I just had my first online break with new mosaic set and pulled a Derwin James blue mosaic /99 in team colors. As a chargers fan I’m super hyped for that has me wanting to get more!!
I want a LT and a J herbo card so bad
Shout out from Taiwan, I am a 41-year-old newbie, and I couldn't find a good all-around tutorial video in my language. This helps me a lot!!!! thank you~😎
Hey I’m half Australian and half Taiwanese but I go visit my grandma in Taiwan every year ,do u know any good sport cards shops in Taipei?
Love these videos helping the hobby!
Wow!! So I recently got back into collecting and when I say recently I mean about a month ago. I would say 100% of what you said about ripping sealed wax boxes was true for me. I did purchase some hobby boxes and opened them up immediately and even though I did it for fun I also did it for investing as well. Clearly big mistake lol. So I’ll take a new approach from here on out and get 2-3 hobby boxes so if I DO get the urge to open a box then at least I’ll still have one or two left to store lol. Thank you for what you do, definitely subscribed to your channel after this video even though I have been recently watching them. Looking forward to watching more of your videos.
pulled a Brock Lesner auto out of a Chronicles blaster box a few days ago!! Thanks for the content Geoff and team!!
I opened up about 8 of the blasters, not a huge fan. I guess all the chase cards are in the hobby box, which I can’t afford.
I’m going to bet that THIS vlog will be the MOST viewed here at SCI. 👍🥇
Excellent content for beginners getting into the hobby. Recently got back into it and haven't bought any since I was a kid 20 years ago! Thanks for the info!
Best breakdown video I've seen so far. Thank you for this!
Great video man, so much good insight here for anyone new to Sports Card Investing. Really good stuff!
Love the vids great meeting you at the Dallas card show Geoff
I'm 46 and just started collecting graded cards for my own pc, Just want to thanks you for this videos. This video was very helpful, and yeah it's crazy to know what I want to collect or focus into. I like non sports card's like Star wars and Pokémon but I also like those auto sports card but they are out of my price range.
You are single-handedly saving this hobby. I even got back into it a little.
Wished I would've learned this before I started. I have been screwed by people who drove up the bids to my max. Thank You for the videos
Been out of cards for years! This was really helpful! Thanks! 🎉
If you have an altered card that you want to get past the professional graders/opinion sellers, definitely use PSA.
No one beats 90s cards specially the inserts💪 panini is dumb😅
Wow thanks! This is a great for me getting back into collecting cards.
I'm just starting to work on my card addiction. It's so hard to break away from it's so easy to buy cards and get into breaks just sitting on my phone during down times
I collect and invest in TCGs and enjoy your alternative mindset
This is a powerful video. Thanks for the information!!!! Never buy individual packs. So many tips!!!
The card website continues to help me out so much thank you
Dude! After watching this video I am 100% better off thanks a lot for all the valuable information. You have earned my subscription. Also downloaded both your apps. Cheers
I took so much notes thank you so much appreciate this video a lot
This was very well done Geoff. A great resource to share across the hobby/industry.
Thanks for taking the time to make this video! It's really helped. However, just wanted to find out how would individuals like myself get a case for a reasonable (retail) price?
Absolute legend this video and series is much appreciated, thank you
I just started collecting cards for fun but after seeing some of your videos, I started looking at collecting some for investing. I am slowly learning but your videos are more helpful than anything and enjoyable to watch.
Thank you! So much useful information!!
I just don't get how a Baker Mayfield card is more valuable than a 30yo Michael Jordan card 🙄
Best way to invest and only have upside is to just watch channels like this and never put in a dime =)
Jeff I'm 45 years old been collecting my whole life and when I pull or purchase a sweet PC it goes on my nightstand right next to where I sleep they are my babys until my next one comes along, you know I only have so much room on my nightstand. I hate it and it almost brings me to tears that my 8 year old son doesn't hardly get to enjoy the heavenly joy of pulling a sweet PC like I have done my whole life up until about 7-8 years ago when the price of boxes or hell even packs seemed to almost tripled. I can't even afford to rip anymore but what bothers me more is my son doesn't get to. Having a family and putting a roof over their heads, food in their stomachs, and clothes on their backs. There's not enough money left to pay the price they want for just one pack never less a hobby box or retail for that matter. It just kills me that my son will probably never get to experience the joy and the love of ripping😢
Great video! Been collecting for a long time now & starting to "invest". With that said, which is a better investment: getting cards graded or buy already graded cards?
Thanks for this valuable information great channel im new to this hobby so this channel is a great find.
Geoff, this is probably the best tutorial on sports cards I ever viewed on you tube. Well done.
Worst kind of person for the hobby right here,☝️
Absolutely!!! One of the best videos I have viewed I Thank you kindly for your time and valuable information. God Bless Youl
You've mentioned companies significantly increased print runs in recent years compared to early 2000s. Can you compare the recent print increase to the early 90s? Is there a source for collectors to find out print runs for any given year?
I appreciate this video I was about to spend almost 1k on plates and patches football cards not worn by the players
With soccer Topps have the Bundesliga and UEFA champions league licences. I think Topps still have MLS. Panini's big 2 are FIFA and the English Premier league. They also pretty much have every national major league in Europe like la liga, serie A etc. There is Futera that have a few teams licences like PSG, Arsenal, Liverpool. Manchester City, Wolves etc.
The best channel for a beginner ty sir
Thank you !! This is a great video.
Nice video for newbies Geoff! I have been in the hobby for years but listened to all of it as a refresher.
Awesome info! Thanks!
What about in person player autographs on cards? Are they more valuable if they can be authenticated or graded?
Super useful.. definitely learned a bunch
Very informative for the new collector
Very Insightful!!! Thanks
Thank you this helped so much!
Very good video and information, even for those of us who aren’t brand new to the hobby. Thanks Geoff!👍🏼
My opinion on licensing Is that the only aesthetic difference is not including team logos. That can make for a cleaner card look in some ways. The most collectible cards. Blank slate, downtown, kaboom, etc don't need the team names/logo's to still be good cards.
Licensing is great sure. But here's the thing. 2018-19 panini select baseball and 2018-19 select basketball have wildly different values strictly due to the licensing issues. You can get top tier select parallels of trout (gold tie die etc) for less than $1k easily from the non-licensed years. Whereas a licensed trout gold will probably make you 10X that. It's weird how licensing. A mostly non-visual aspect affects prices so much when in 10 years nobody will remember off the top of their heads who had licenses when. Sure they may notice the logo gone. But if they dont care then it's still a top tier card of a top tier player made in a top tier brand by a top tier card producer. The fact that a license that barely impacts anything makes people pay so much less is weird to me. I get it. But panini was making licensed select basketball at the same time they made unlicensed select baseball. They're not knock-offs like sage. In the future nobody will care if a trout gold has no license. It's a trout gold from panini lol.
Geoff love your insight into the hobby on sports cards. Also am excited about the future of Pokemon , magic cards, and some non sport cards as well.
Thank u for allllll your help appreciate 😊
I made hobby more interesting knowing that you can make it an investment long term, and also with the knowledge that Mr. Geoff shared a lot, not just how to make profit but educate more people that wants to start with the hobby. Thank you so much been following you since i started the hobby back in May!
Thank you so much for these video
My dad, cousins, and uncles passed on hundreds of random cards to me and my brother when we were growing up. I have been going through a few of them. Some cards are very old and very cool but the newer ones seem to go for more. I'll never understand it. Also it seems like every time I have one worth money my dad either wrote on it when he was a kid or I damaged it growing up.
Not me buying blaster boxes with only being in the game for 2 weeks lol woops!
Thanks again for the information.
How would you recommend starting in breaks? I'm looking to invest in some breaks.
Awesome video thanks!!
Really good job explaining
Sports Card Investor PROMOTED Zion rookie cards during his first year. Collectors spent millions of dollars and today it lost its VALUE. 🤣😂🤣
How do the manufacturers get away with not providing checklists themselves? How do they get away with not providing odds of all cards included? Why are third party sites required to provide these things? Makes the manufacturers look terrible as far as I can tell. Why do collectors allow this?
thank you for the educational video
In regards to the talk about Pristine/Pristine 10 Black...one thing I'd like to see for someone that just wants to buy a handful of cards that are worth enough now but still able to get into like a $300 card that may appreciate in the future to lets say $700 in the next few years....I'd love to see you buy one of these pristine cards and update on the tracking info to see which card has gone up
Go Gators... I'm in Ocala. Thanks for the video definitely learned some things today
When you say that we never should buy a card right after the series release debut. By example, if I want to buy cards like Trevor Zegras young guns, Cole Caufield young guns and Spencer Knight young guns, what is the delay that I should wait to purchase theses? 1 month? 2 months? Thank you!
This video is very informative.
I have a large collection of cards that I came across years back doing storage lockers and would like to look at selling them but not sure just where I could turn to that would actually be honest and fare being there are actually some Awesome cards in there but I don't know one name from the next. Where could I turn to for help with them ??
Long-term, is sealed wax better than investing in individual cards ?
thank you so much for posting this, this helped so much as I am a new sports card investor/collector
Awesome video i learn a lot for my channel and collecting future.
Thanks and saludos desde Chile
As someone who grew up collecting 1988-1994 "junk era", thank you for this video! I felt so lost looking at cards.
I was surprised to hear minor league baseball prospects command higher prices, because I noticed panini has college football/basketball which are lower priced than the rookie cards. I would have expected the college cards to be similar in terms of "prospective talent". Maybe it is my bias because I prefer college athletics over professional.
Always wanted to know the value of my Brady national treasure numbered any idea how to do this?
I only collect Magic and Marvel, but this was still a great video.
