Grant Slayton has built Waldorf Stories by finding cards most collectors never see and connecting them with people who value them.

That reputation took years to earn.

Grant joins Brett to explain why trust sits at the center of his business, how he approaches trades, and why relationships matter more than any single transaction.

They discuss the five-and-a-half-year pursuit of the 1997 Ultra Michael Jordan Platinum Medallion 1/1, the work behind sourcing rare cards, and how Grant decides when a card means more than its market value.

Grant also shares his advice for anyone who wants to turn cards into a profession.

Help enough collectors get what they want, and the next opportunity often finds you.
