When asked about the reasons behind creating this event, the host of the event, Dakota Hosley said:
“This show is for the die-hard, passion-filled, market makers. We stand for those looking to push their industry to new heights and expand further than most people believe is possible.”
The memorabilia business has been on a rapid rise over the past 24 months or so, with record-breaking prices, historic scarcity and an NFT craze that has become an almost daily part of the always changing sports news cycle.
The most expensive piece of memorabilia, the original Olympic Games Manifesto written by a French aristocrat in 1888, sold at Sotheby’s for $8.8 million in 2019. But cards remain the driving force behind most of the astronomical numbers. Since February of 2020, there have been at least a dozen $1 million card sales, including six cards that sold for north of $3.75 million.
According to Chris Ivy of Heritage Actions, sports collectibles is perhaps the strongest financial market that exists right now. “The global pandemic added rocket fuel to the collectibles market — a combination of the restriction upon spending on other luxuries like travel and fine dining, and the growing acceptance of the legitimacy of collectibles around the globe as an investment vehicle,” Ivy says. “We’ve seen more million-dollar sales in the past year than in the twenty years preceding it.”
