A New Way to Transport Grails + Does the Hobby Care Too Much About PSA? + Vintage Treasures
from Sports Cards Live · host Cloud10
Mack Cheli introduces Grail Guard, his new white-glove transportation service designed to move valuable cards door to door without putting them into the traditional shipping system. We get into how the service works, security, coverage and why he believes the hobby needs another option for moving its most valuable cards. Then Leighton Sheldon joins us with a provocative question: does the hobby care too much about PSA's opinion? We discuss what it would actually take for another grading company to compete, whether collectors themselves are standing in the way of change, and the relationship between grading accuracy and market value. Plus, Leighton shares some incredible vintage baseball cards from a newly acquired collection, including Christy Mathewson, Hank Aaron, Lou Gehrig and more.
