FINDING TREASURES IN CARDBOARD: ‘THE GOLDIN TOUCH’ ON NETFLIX

Do you get the same thrill from cracking open a fresh pack of cards as you do from binging the latest Netflix series? Then we’ve got a recommendation that perfectly marries these two passions.

Netflix’s newest 2023 docuseries, ‘King of Collectibles – The Goldin Touch,’ dives deep into the fascinating world of Goldin, the premier online auction house and marketplace for collectors.

Goldin has built its reputation on dealing with high-value items, routinely offering auctions for items exceeding $249,999. Their commission-based structure ensures that they thrive as the middleman of these lucrative transactions. But don’t let the big numbers deter you; their marketplace is also the go-to spot for trading cards valued up to $249,999. You can buy and sell on the marketplace just as you would on eBay.

One of the best things about Goldin? It’s a truly global platform, connecting collectors from all corners of the world.
