What happens when a sports card you bought for $900 becomes potentially worth hundreds of thousands of dollars? And what would it take to convince you to sell it?

On this episode of The Hangover, exclusive to the Sports Card Clubhouse, Jeremy Lee and David Chase dive deep into the financial and psychological realities of collecting high-end sports cards.

Jeremy shares the incredible story of his 2012 Fleer Retro Wayne Gretzky Green PMG /10, purchased for approximately $900 Canadian in 2019. After turning down a $210,000 USD offer several years ago, he's now watching another copy climb past $200,000 with buyer's premium in the Fanatics Collect Premier Auction. Could this eventually become a million-dollar card?

The conversation also explores Jeremy's biggest financial regrets in the hobby, including selling Michael Jordan cards to purchase his home and potentially leaving $1.5 to $2 million in future appreciation on the table.

Meanwhile, Jeremy has his sights set on another major grail, but acquiring it raises some difficult questions. Should he spend savings, consolidate his collection, or simply walk away?

Along the way, Jeremy and David discuss the emotional attachment collectors develop to their cards, the difference between market value and a personal "not for sale" price, and why sports cards can be investments for some collectors but not others.

And in typical Hangover fashion, they manage to fill an entire episode without touching a single one of their planned topics.
