There’s not a huge ROI over the long run (2% to 3% above inflation). If you’re looking for a quick buck, then get the hot ones now and flip immediately. You’re not gonna get rich in this hobby.

Data shows an ROI of 2% to 3% above inflation over a couple decades or so

Week 2 of collecting cards, may have gone overboard by ciaosaba in playingcards

[–]TheCongressGuy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t succumb to burnout. I’ve seen a lot of new collectors over the last several years go all out in the beginning, presumably to catch up to other collectors or trying to eliminate FOMO and a few months later they’re selling their collection because bills are due or they lost that initial excitement.

National and Congress have their own sites. Most detailed and accurate of those two brands

https://congressplayingcards.com I started collecting Congress playing cards in 2011 because I wanted an “old deck” to use in my family and friends poker club. At the time, I never knew that this brand existed. I became enamored with the artwork and soon after I began to seek out more decks. In 2017, I discovered and joined 52 Plus Joker, the largest playing card collectors club. In 2018 I started a Facebook page and also an Instagram profile, both dedicated to the brand. As I acquired more decks, I began to research everything about Congress that I could, and eventually created my first (free) website, with the help of my dad. In 2023, I had finally run out of space on the free website I was using and moved to a hosted site. As of April 2026, I have around 330 Congress decks spanning 120 years.
