## Resource

Max @PutnamCards is joined by Brett McGrath @StackingSlabs to answer one of the biggest questions in the hobby: what actually drives value in sports card collecting? What do we value most? Is it rarity? Player greatness? Brand power? Nostalgia? Status? Investment Potential? We break down the record-setting $5.11M sale of Victor Wembanyama’s 2023-24 Panini Prizm Black 1/1 PSA 10 and discuss what this historic sale says about the modern sports card market and the Panini Prizm era. We also discuss the current state of 1/1s, finding opportunities as collectors, and Brett’s Indiana Pacers collection and collecting philosophy.
