Interview with Alex aka Refractor Jones on His Amazing Collection of Sports Cards Plus How Beckett Magazine Determined Card Prices Back in the Day

EPISODE 57 - Clark and John get into the NHL playoffs and talk about players who might make good off-season targets. Then they welcome Alex aka Refractor Jones (@refractorjones on Instagram) to the show and talk about his amazing sports card collection that requires rooms in his house specifically dedicated for his cards. Plus he talks about his experience as a former Beckett regional basketball analyst and reveals how the once revered magazine determined card prices back then (before the days of eBay and other online marketplaces determing current market value).  And with decades of experience collecting sports card, Alex is a true collector (and a self-described "cardboard hoarder" that never sells) but he explains why he still welcomes investor types and new hobbyists coming into the space.   Check out our Instagram page specifically for this podcast @cardstothemoon so please give us a follow there (and DM us your 'Pick One" pairs to debate on a future podcast episode) and listen to our podcast on the platform of your choice at https://fivecardguys.com/podcast !
