Collectors, enthusiasts, and armchair treasure hunters alike have reason to celebrate, as Netflix has announced the return of the ever-engaging series, "King of Collectibles: The Goldin Touch," for a third season. If the thrill of a cutthroat memorabilia auction gets your heart racing, then ready yourself for more behind-the-scenes action with Ken Goldin and his esteemed auction house as they navigate the ever-evolving and lucrative world of collectibles.
Since its explosive debut in 2023, "King of Collectibles" has rapidly made a name for itself, elbowing into Netflix’s competitive Top 10 roster and bagging a nomination for the Critics Choice Real TV Awards in the Best Business Show category. While the streaming giant remains coy about an exact release date, the mere announcement of the series' continuation is already igniting conversations across fan forums and social media circles alike.
In a recent statement as bracing as it is enthusiastic, Ken Goldin himself shared, “We are thrilled to be back.” He continued to elaborate on the palpable excitement within the collectibles ecosystem. “It is an exciting time in the collectibles industry with new categories emerging, higher stakes and bids, and interest coming from everywhere. We love to share these incredible moments and stories with a wider audience.” With such passion radiating from its central figure, this season promises more tales spun from high-octane auctions, unexpected plot twists, and untold gems of history.
Backing the show’s production ensemble are the formidable Wheelhouse’s Spoke Studios, Peyton Manning’s renowned Omaha Productions, and Connor Schell’s Full Day Productions, with a noteworthy collaboration from eBay. This partnership alone signals the show’s commitment to authenticity in capturing the nuances of the trade. Not too long ago, eBay expanded its influence in the realm of collectibles by acquiring Goldin Auctions in 2024. This strategic maneuver has allowed the brand to stretch its prowess beyond traditional sports cards into the enchanted realm of pop culture memorabilia. Their recent acquisition of Studio Auctions, celebrated for its storied movie props, only cements their ambitious expansion.
The allure of the series derives not only from the dazzling array of collectibles and their staggering bids but also from its compelling narrative arcs. According to Card Ladder, Goldin alone made waves in the collectibles ocean by raking in over $32 million in June trading card sales, contributing to a towering $305 million collective haul that month within the industry.
However, gold-topped trophies and sales records are only one facet of this glittering series. Like any vibrant industry, the world of collectibles isn’t immune to the occasional spat or simmering controversy. Recently, a heated exchange unfolded as Nick Bell, CEO of Fanatics Live, tried his hand at a guerrilla marketing campaign on none other than Goldin’s Instagram page. Bell’s audacious move, aimed at promoting Fanatics’ own auction endeavors, was met with cold disapproval from Ken Goldin, possibly setting the stage for spirited rivalries ready to jump from social media straight into the show’s narrative.
As the populace eagerly anticipates further morsels and sneak peeks of season three, Ken Goldin continues to shine under the renewed limelight. His auction house, now a behemoth in a buzzing industry, stands testament to the inexorable surge of interest and fervor enveloping collectibles today. With treasure hunts and high stakes at its core, this realm of discovery proves ever dramatic and endlessly fascinating.
For those who find themselves entranced by the mystique of rare memorabilia or the stories objects can tell, "King of Collectibles: The Goldin Touch" is poised to deliver. The series continues to weave its charms, inviting viewers to explore the layers of a phenomenon that has clearly never been more vibrant—or more charged with suspense. Grab your remote, and prepare for a spectacle where negotiation, nostalgia, and newfound riches mix in a captivating alchemy of cultural history.
