Our newly remastered episode of The Collector's Compass featuring Haley, aka Slab Mania, is officially live!
A collector, content creator, and breaker with Cards HQ, Haley has built a following of more than 12,000 on Instagram while establishing herself as a recognizable voice in the sports card hobby.
We talk about her journey into collecting, building Slab Mania, her experience breaking at Cards HQ, and the incredible moment she pulled the Jaxson Dart Kaiju Superfractor.
We also get into some broader conversations about the hobby, including the influence of social media, the pressure to keep up with increasingly expensive collections, and what it's like being a woman in a predominantly male industry.
We wrap up by discussing responsible collecting from both the collector's and breaker's perspectives, including how businesses like Cards HQ can help promote #RipResponsibly while continuing to celebrate everything that makes the hobby exciting.
Really enjoyed this conversation with Haley and appreciate her willingness to share her experiences and perspective.
The remastered episode is now available on YouTube and streaming across all major audio platforms, including Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music, and more.
