Part 4 opens with a candid design Q&A: why some modern hockey releases skip the embossed Upper Deck logo, how chrome stock and foiling budgets force trade-offs, and what it’s like to keep your collector passion while building products—and reading the comments. Then we shift into a lively roundtable on flippers: the value they add, the “predatory” edge cases, bounty culture, and the dreaded “flipper vortex.” We also hit a research detour on Bond Bread Jackie Robinson, the coming “oddball era,” and where star-power vs. mainstream truly sits.

Highlights

  • Emboss vs. chrome: cost math, insert priorities, and why not every set can have everything

  • Working in cards without losing the love; taking criticism vs. finding real feedback

  • Flippers: service vs. scalping, pumps, selling before owning, and game-theory tactics for buyers

  • Bond Bread Jackie primer and a case for rising “oddball” interest

  • Quick hitters: requests for RPAs in SPx, Original Six centennial sets buzz, and living-set/gamified ideas for families

Recorded Live Sept 27, 2027
