Not only have cards been selling for record prices, but interest in trading cards as a whole seems to have increased. Trading card expert <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/buynicecards\/\" data-cke-saved-href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/buynicecards\/\" data-cke-saved- target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Eric Bitz<\/a>, who runs BuyNiceCards.com, covers the trading card boom.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cIt\u2019s always an exciting time to be a trading card collector in my opinion. But the last several months have been especially exciting and for some years now cards have been gaining momentum,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/buynicecards\" data-cke-saved-href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/buynicecards\" data-cke-saved- target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Eric Bitz<\/a> of BuyNiceCards notes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Why are cards becoming so popular? It\u2019s hard to pin down claims with data, but the COVID-19 pandemic seems to have spurred a lot of nostalgia with people stuck at home. With people eating out less and spending less on activities outside the home, some are also finding that they have extra cash on hand.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThe trading card boom is likely due to a mix of factors,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.einpresswire.com\/article\/547543111\/eric-bitz-of-buynicecards-discusses-why-he-s-so-excited-to-be-back-at-nscc-show\" data-cke-saved-href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/eric-bitz-784b9534\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Eric Bitz<\/a> says. \u201cCards have been growing in popularity, and the pandemic seems to have supercharged trading. If you\u2019ve got a bit of extra cash, not only is collecting cards fun, but it can also make for good investments.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Eric Bitz of BuyNiceCards Covers Trading Card Investments and Record Sales<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Stock markets have soared to record highs in recent months. Some analysts suggest that aggressive stimulus efforts by the U.S. Federal Reserve are propping markets up. Some analysts also fear that many stocks are currently overvalued.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Investors wary of stock markets now have many options to diversify. Cryptocurrencies and commodities may first come to mind, but trading cards offer an opportunity to diversify as well.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cNothing is certain in life and investments always involve risk,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/ericbitz.medium.com\/\" data-cke-saved-href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/eric.bitz.56\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Eric Bitz<\/a> notes. \u201cStill, some trading cards have gained a tremendous amount of value over time. The right cards could boost your investment portfolio. Cards selling for record prices in recent months have certainly raised awareness regarding trading cards.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In January 2021, a Mickey Mantle Topps trading card sold for more than $5 million. In April 2021, a Lebron James card likewise snagged more than $5 million and in February a Luka Don?i? card snagged $4.6 million. These three cards now account for the most expensive single card sales in history.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cRight now, the multi-million dollar sales are drawing in all the headlines, and for good reason,\u201d Eric Bitz says. \u201cOutside of those record sales, prices, in general, have been increasing. This is great for sellers looking to raise cash.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you\u2019re buying cards, however, it\u2019s important to study the trading card industry. That\u2019s especially true given that cards are reaching record prices. As costs rise, so too may risks. It&#8217;s smart to buy from trusted sources, like BuyNiceCards.com.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cIf you\u2019re new to trading cards, it\u2019s smart to take it slow out the gate,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/ericbitz1\" data-cke-saved-href=\"https:\/\/buynicecards.com\/about\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Eric Bitz<\/a> of BuyNiceCards says. \u201cSpend time studying what expert card traders have to say. Right now, card grading experts and card grades themselves are perhaps more important than ever before.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"tags\">Tags: <a href=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/tag\/373164\/\" rel=\"tag noopener\" target=\"_blank\">\u00a0<\/a> <\/p>\n<div><b>Tags:<\/b><br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/category\/menafn\/\" rel=\"category tag noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Menafn<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/category\/content-marketing\/\" rel=\"category tag noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Content Marketing<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/category\/ips\/\" rel=\"category tag noopener\" target=\"_blank\">IPS<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/category\/reportedtimes\/\" rel=\"category tag noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Reportedtimes<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/category\/financial-content\/\" rel=\"category tag noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Financial Content<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/category\/pr-wirein\/\" rel=\"category tag noopener\" target=\"_blank\">PR-Wirein<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/category\/news-category\/extended-distribution\/\" rel=\"category tag noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Extended Distribution<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/category\/news-category\/icn-internal-distribution\/\" rel=\"category tag noopener\" target=\"_blank\">iCN Internal Distribution<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/category\/language\/english\/\" rel=\"category tag noopener\" target=\"_blank\">English<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Eric Bitz from BuyNiceCards Covers the Recent Boom in Collector&rsquo;s Card Trading Eric Bitz of BuyNiceCards.com discusses why sports trading cards have become so popular.
