In this episode of The Staging Area presented by dcsports87, Brett and Tory talk through the real decisions collectors make when opportunity hits. What moves from the PC pile to the sell pile. Why “being responsible” sometimes means shipping a big box to consignment.

They unpack:
- The Super Bowl eBay Live activation in San Francisco
- What brand exposure really means when you’re building for the long term
- How volume forces companies like PSA and dcsports87 to make tough operational decisions
- The Drake Maye hype cycle and what the data shows after the loss
- Why infrastructure today feels different than 2021
- And whether release consistency even exists anymore
This is a conversation about scaling, adaptability, and playing the long game in a hobby that moves fast.
