Description

EPISODE 76 - Clark, Hyung, and John open the show talking about the rumor that Fanatics is looking to acquire Panini America. They have a little fun imagining what the hobby would look like if the rumor was true (ie. National Treasures licensed baseball product?). 
In this week's Hobby Headlines, they discuss the recent controversy of the 1986 Fleer box opening at the National sponsored by Whatnot potentially being resealed. Then they ask the bigger question of whether investing in high-end "sealed" wax product has become too risky, and what can be done to protect future collectors and investors from being scammed.
The guys then play another edition of "Over/Under" where Clark gives Hyung and John a card with a set dollar amount. And then both Hyung and John must guess if the last sold price was over or under that amount. The cards featured in this segment include: Fernando Tatis Jr. 2016 Bowman Chrome base prospect autograph card; Aaron Judge 2013 Bowman Chrome base prospect autograph card; and 2020-21 SP Authentic Future Watch autograph rookie card.
They end the episode with "Pick One" where they name two cards or sets, and then debate which one they would rather invest in. The pairs chosen this week include: Ronald Acuna Jr. 2018 Topps Chrome Sapphire Ronald Acuna Jr. (PSA 10) vs. Fernando Tatis Jr. 2019 Topps Chrome Sapphire (PSA 10); Jonathan Huberdeau Future Watch rookie card (PSA 10) vs. Matthew Tkachuk Future Watch rookie card (PSA 10); and Lamelo Ball 2020 Panini Prizm Silver (PSA 10) vs. Ja Morant 2019 Panini Prizm Silver (PSA 10).
