Between November 12th and November 15th, 2023, an unprecedented, once-in-a-generation series of rare soccer card sales occurred.

Across two auctions, more than 50 2017 Topps Chrome UEFA Red Refractors (each serial numbered to just 10) sold via eBay. For many of these cards, these auctions represented their first - and so far, only - public sales.

I talked with James (a.k.a. MadCityCollector on IG) about:

(2) His involvement in the auctions and bidding strategy, and

Plus much, much more!
