If anyone has a lot of experience collecting baseball cards and wants to help us with a deep-dive analysis comparing cards to sneakers, and examining whether the sneaker market is in a bubble, and if it will burst, email me at data@campless.com thanks!

That is very, very nice of you to say. Thanks.

Thanks man...really appreciate that. Most graphs are just done in PPT, but sometimes we have our graphics guy do some cool stuff.

@skills You trying to get me into this conversation? lol..ok... The question of a sneaker bubble is very complicated because the sneaker market is not like an free market that we have seen burst - dot com, housing, US economy, etc. The sneaker market is not a free market at all. It is highly...

Great article about the sneakerhead community / market and how it relates to Nike's business model. This article is actually linked on the ESPN.com homepage in the 538 box, right below the Grantland box (Bill Simmons)...

I don't even think it's too much of a derail. All of these comments are relevant to the sneaker/card comparison. How people talk about them, how they collected them, everything fyi....my grail was a '52 Topps Willie Mays...which I still have and keep on my dresser. all of my other cards are...

Yeah - that is the exact point. There's still plenty out there and they are still cheap bc no one realized how much supply was being put into the market in the 80's and 90's. '89 Upper Deck was the first card company that tried to create a premium product with less supply, but they were still...

I could have literally written every word here - I agree 100%. How old are you? I'm 36. I'm guessing you're about the same.

The rapper comment up above pretty naive...Who has a higher Q score - LeBron or Wale? Kobe or Hulk Hogan? I don't even like rap, but I love sneakers. The basketball players are the true stars. In 10 years it will be Parker and Wiggins and McDermott (jk), but there is a never-ending supply of...

No....def not like the card market....because of the many fundamental differences, one the real important ones is that no one really understood the supply of the cards in the late 80s, early 90s. There were way more cards on the market then we realized. And, at the end of the day, a baseball...

Ha! Thanks! re...the hype not going anywhere...I agree..Nike is very very good at controlling the supply and demand to ensure constant sellouts and lines around FootLocker at 8am every Saturday, but I do believe that at some point a good chunk of the people who "entered the sneaker game" in...

Thanks, much appreciated
