How Trophies Affect Collectibility

I invite Andrew @st_croix_cards on IG into this live discussion about how major trophies in soccer affect the collectibility of the players and teams. As an Arsenal supporter, Andrew has insight into how their first Premier League trophy in 22 year contributes to the collectibility of this team as well as how a Champions League win on Saturday affects the trajectory of Arsenal and PSG players, We will also dive into the upcoming World Cup and how success there may or may not lead to a strong hobby following.

Revisiting 2017-18 Topps Chrome UEFA Champions League with Seth @soccercardcorner

Seth (@soccercardcorner) and I revisit our discussion on collecting 2017-18 Topps Chrome UEFA Champions League set. We last discussed the state of our set collecting on Seth's YouTube channel in November 2023 after dozens of red refractors were auction off within a few week span. Recently, the market for 2017 Topps Chrome has shifted again with sales increasing by multiples hitting all time highs. We discuss the validation but also the uncertainty it creates when the price seem to explode overnight and how it changes our mindset in collecting the set going forward.
