We built the Wax Value Index for the moment a product drops. But here’s something we can’t say enough: it works just as well years later.
Prices shift all the time. When they do, so does the math on which format makes the most sense. That’s the whole premise behind Wax Rewind, our series for paid subscribers where we revisit older releases and find out whether there’s still value hiding in the wax.
Each installment, we’ll drop the index, walk through the initial appeal, dig into the odds, and give you a clear-eyed read on whether it’s still worth the rip.
We usually don’t cover unlicensed product at The Hobby Wire. But Fanatics/Topps did something interesting with 2023-24 Topps Chrome Basketball that’s worth a look.
Let’s get into it.
