The Staging Area #14: Year-End Signals From the Market With dcsports87

This episode is a look back at the year through the lens of volume, behavior, and decision making. Tory from dcsports87 joins the show to break down what actually mattered this year and what sellers should pay attention to heading into next year. We talk through • Why volume changed the business • How technology shaped the consignment experience • What repackers changed in buyer behavior • Where demand showed up across sports and non-sports • Why certain cards still anchor value across cycles • What sellers misunderstand about growth and scale This is not a hype recap. It is a signal check from someone who sees thousands of transactions a day. If you sell cards, consign cards, or track the market closely, this episode gives you clarity on what moved the needle and why it matters going forward A special thank you to dcsports87 for supporting this series.
