Smashing BIN: The Shaky-Hand Smash with Joe (@low_pop_papi)

What happens when a card you’ve been circling for months suddenly appears with a price that feels right?

In this episode of Smashing BIN, Joe (@low_pop_papi) returns to break down his acquisition of the 2018 Panini Kaboom! Gold Stephen Curry /10 PSA 10 — a card that changed the trajectory of his entire collection.

We talk about:
  • The emotional tension behind a high-dollar BIN smash
  • Why Kaboom Golds were heating up in mid-2023
  • Comparative analysis across the 2018 multisport checklist
  • How a single card can push a collector to go all-in on a player
  • Why the Panini era’s non-numbered inserts might be the hobby’s best-kept secret
  • And what the $500k+ Curry Topps Now sale signals about the hobby’s time-shifted future
This isn’t just a Curry story. It’s a collector’s blueprint for doing your homework, trusting your instincts, and building a meaningful PC.
