Part 1 - Predicting the Future of Sports Cards Values | Tom Ferrara | SCL #218

Sports Cards Live

We sit down with Tom Ferrara, aka @pancake_analytics, to talk about how he uses data and analytical models to forecast the future values of sports cards; does player perfomance matter, FOMO, data sources and governance etc. We also get his thoughts on the effect of one license per sport and lack of competition, barriers to collecting, the lifecycle of a collector, the perceived focus on manufactured scarcity and dollar value of parallels, the long term effects of direct to consumer limited time offerings and more so join us live and bring your questions and comments as they will be in play.

Saturday February 24 @ 7:00pm PST / 8:00pm MST / 9:00pm CST / 10:00pm EST
