Wax On, Wax Off: The Hidden Power of Vintage Wax In this episode of Sports Cards & A Cup of Joe, Joe takes a nostalgic detour from the dojo to the card shop starting with a true (and slightly embarrassing) karate story before kicking things into high gear with an inside look at today’s booming vintage wax market.

From certified unopened boxes to factory sets straight out of sealed cases, Joe breaks down real recent sales, why collectors are paying record prices, and what makes unopened wax one of the most fascinating (and fastest-shrinking) sectors in the hobby. Whether you’re sitting on old boxes, hunting garage sale treasures, or just love hearing how an ’80 Topps box now commands over $100 per pack, this episode packs both education and entertainment.

Tune in and discover why “wax on, wax off” means something very different in the sports-card world today.
