Here's what you need to know:


Prospecting...Prospecting...Prospecting... That's what is selling and moving up. Dealers are chasing virtually every Bowman, Bowman Chrome, Bowman Sterling, Bowman Platinum, Bowman Draft ect product out there. Baseball overall is on fire including many of the high end products. 2012 National Treasures is through the roof. Most dealers passed on this product or ordered very small amounts. Orders did not heat up until the week of release when Panini started tweeting our pics. The trend right now in baseball is 1) Rookie Based products 2) High end baseball 3) Topps Presells. Just telling it like it is. These are the areas where collectors are putting their money to work.


To break it down, these have been the top sellers in the past few weeks:

2012 Panini National Treasures Baseball
2012 Bowman Draft Hobby & Jumbos Baseball
2012 Bowman Sterling Baseball
2011 Bowman Chrome Baseball
2013 Topps Heritage Baseball
2012 Topps Triple Threads Baseball
2012 Bowman Platinum Baseball
2011 Bowman Draft Baseball
2013 Topps 1 HTA Jumbos Baseball
2012 Bowman Draft Hobby & Jumbo Baseball
2011 Bowman Hobby & Jumbo Baseball
2012 Bowman Hobby & Jumbo Baseball
2012 Topps Five Star Baseball
2010 Bowman Draft Baseball
2010 Bowman Chrome Baseball
2012 Topps Finest Baseball
2012 Topps Chrome Baseball
2012 Bowman Platinum Baseball
2013 Topps Turkey Red Baseball


Getting a lot of orders on the following presells. Once Topps
announces a sellout, the market will move higher

pretty quickly:

2013 Bowman Baseball Hobby & Jumbos
2013 Bowman Chrome Baseball
2013 Bowman Inception Baseball
2013 Bowman Platinum Baseball
2013 Panini Prizm Baseball
2013 Topps Chrome Baseball
2013 Topps Finest Baseball
2013 Topps Museum Collection Baseball
2013 Topps Tier One Baseball
2013 Topps Tribute Baseball
2013 Topps Triple Threads Baseball


2012 Football continues to sell. We're seeing a lot of sellouts recent from Panini (Crown Royal,Limited, Contenders) and almost all of the Topps Releases continue to move. Supreme took a dip then came back strong as the breaks continue to over deliver. Many collectors are projecting 2013 as a weak draft class so all the attention is still on 2012 and 2011 products. We should see both years sell well during the off season. The main presell everyone is waiting for is 2012 Panini National Treasures FB. With NT Baseball trading near $1700, FB is currently at $2000 and could run from here. The products dealers are chasing are:


2012 Bowman Sterling Football
2012 Topps Strata Football
2012 Topps Supreme Football
2012 Panini Crown Royale Football
2012 Panini Limited Football
2012 Panini Prizm Football
2012 Topps Chrome Football
2012 Panini Contenders Football
2012 Panini Certified Football
2012 Topps Triple Threads Football
2011 Playoff National Treasures Football
2012 Panini Certified Football
2012 Topps Magic Football


There are a few products that are outselling all the others (Which are listed below). Also keep an eye on 2012/13 Panini Select Basketball. There seems to be a "Prizm" type buzz around this product.


12/3 Panini Prizm Basketball
12/3 Panini Totally Certified Basketball
12/3 Panini Threads Basketball


With very few hockey product out this year ITG Motown is selling very well along with 12/13 Limited HK and 12/03 UD 1 HK. Still seeing a lot of demand for 11/12 Prime HK and 11/12 Dominion HK.


On the Non sports side, keep an eye on Walking Dead Comic series 2, Star Wars Jedi Legacy, and Wacky Packages Collector Tins. These presells are being targeted by collectors.
