  • Great show with hiccups

    I really like the show. Great information given, tips and tricks. Mike very knowledgeable and opinionated. Sometimes likes to hear himself over anything else, no matter who’s feelings might be affected. Which can take the show off the rails. Nothing like a quick hit of the 30 sec button.

  • Decent sports card pod

    Good podcast most of the time. I wish the episodes were a bit more consistently organized around cards since some of the discussion can get a bit weird or come off as bragging at times. Besides that I enjoy it. Mike doesn’t bother me as much as some of the other reviewers have said.

    Self absorbed and pushes his own agenda

  • Gone down hill

    It’s a tough hang these days. I finally pulled the trigger to unsubscribe after months of bad episodes. Used to think Mike was at the very least a straight shooter. Now that he’s aligned with PSA/ebay/fanatics he’s become a glad hander IMO. Good for him for making money but not good for genuine and high quality content.

Q: What is your stance on a potential 10-20% correction in the hobby?
Take some money off the table, be patient, and consider the longer-term prospects rather than panicking; you can still enjoy the chase while protecting downside.

Q: How do you balance the breaker model with traditional hobby shops to maintain a good collector experience?
