🧱
The Slab Collector
They don’t care about raw cards — if it’s not encapsulated in plastic, it’s not worthy. Their display cases look like a PSA warehouse.
🕵
The Player Purist
They pick a player (or two) and go all-in. Doesn’t matter if it’s a rookie, base, insert, or cereal box promo — if it’s their guy, it’s in the PC.
🧓
The Nostalgia Hunter
Only wants cards that remind them of childhood — junk wax, 90s inserts, and maybe a few beat-up Topps cards from grandpa’s shoebox.
💰
The Flipper
They’re in it for the margins — constantly “buying low, selling high,” scanning comps, and refreshing eBay sold listings like it’s the stock market.
🧠
The Historian
Knows every set, print run, and oddball release. Their collection tells the story of the hobby itself — from tobacco cards to Prizm.
💎
The Chaser
Lives for the thrill of ripping wax. Doesn’t matter what the product is — they just need to feel that pack tear and chase that next big pull.
🧩
The Set Builder
Carefully tracks down every card in a checklist, crossing off numbers one by one. Completion is their art form.
🖼
The Aesthetic Collector
They collect based on looks — card design, photography, or color match. Couldn’t care less about value; it just has to “look right.”
🧬
The Oddball Collector
They love the weird stuff — food issues, regional promos, misprints, or cards that came from cereal boxes and gas stations.
🔢
The Serial Number Sniper
Every card must have the perfect numbering — jersey matches, 1/1s, 69/99s, or anything with a fun significance.
🧤
The Team Loyalist
Lives and breathes one team. Every card, no matter how obscure, has to wear their favorite colors.
