Tory from dcsports87 is back for another episode of The Staging Area. We cover it all in this one—big hobby sales, grading shakeups, live selling, and why the bull market is pushing collectors to make quick decisions.We get into the Tim Duncan 2012-13 Prizm Gold sale, McDavid Young Guns High Gloss, and what these cards mean for the long-term value of sets. We also call out one of the worst-looking releases in years and talk about why design matters.Tory shares updates on dcsports87, thoughts on live selling, and his own collecting journey—from chasing Andruw Jones to building a signed 1993 Finest refractor set. We wrap on what collectors need to remember when the market feels like it’s on fire.A special thank you to dcsports87 for supporting this series.
