Beckett’s Next Chapter: Colin Hudson on Trust, Grading, and the Road Ahead

from Stacking Slabs · host Brett McGrath

The Beckett brand means something different to every collector.For some, it was the magazine sitting on the counter at the card shop.For others, it was the first slab they chased.For many collectors, Beckett represented authority, trust, and standards.Now the company is entering a new chapter.In this conversation, Brett sits down with Colin Hudson, General Manager at Beckett, to discuss the recent relaunch, updated labels and slabs, customer feedback, technology investments, and the challenge of rebuilding trust in the hobby.Colin shares what surprised him most after stepping into the role, why subgrades remain central to Beckett’s identity, how the company is approaching customer experience, and what collectors should expect over the next 12 to 18 months.This conversation is about more than labels and slabs.It’s about what trust means in a hobby built on opinions, transactions, and reputation.Check out the new updates at BeckettSign up for Hobby Jobs and The Weekly Rip for freeGet your free copy of Collecting For Keeps: Finding Meaning In A Hobby Built On HypeStart your 7 day free trial of Stacking Slabs Patreon Today[Distributed on Sunday] Sign up for the Stacking Slabs Weekly Rip Newsletter using this linkFollow Stacking Slabs: | Twitter | Instagram | Facebook | Tiktok ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
