On this episode of Passion to Profession presented by eBay, I sit back down with Tait, the owner of Hoody’s Collectibles. Our last chat happened in February, and a lot has changed since then.

We cover what it takes to run a real sports card business in 2025, why some products fly and others stall, and how Tait navigates the swings of the market while managing stores, consignment, and a nonstop flow of collections.

We also walk through several standout cards that moved through Hoody’s this year, from Griffey Superfractors to Jordan inserts to vintage Mantle.

 If you want an honest look at how a shop owner stays sharp, stays connected, and stays growing, this one will hit you.

A special thank you to eBay for sponsoring Passion to Profession. The biggest and best marketplace to buy your next favorite trading card.
