2025 Topps Chrome Football FDI Auction

Get Ready for Chrome Football’s Reverse Dutch Auction

The 2025 Topps Chrome Football First Day Issue (FDI) releases via a Reverse Dutch Auction on Topps.com, giving collectors a timed opportunity to secure this online-exclusive SKU before Hobby boxes arrive.

The 2025 Topps Chrome Football FDI releases through a Reverse Dutch Auction, starting at a set ceiling price and dropping at scheduled intervals. Collectors can buy at any time while inventory lasts, and each buyer pays the exact price at checkout. There’s no bidding, no clearing price, and no retroactive adjustments.

What’s a Reverse Dutch Auction?

A Reverse Dutch Auction is a timed sales format where:

• The product starts at a defined ceiling price.
• The price drops at scheduled intervals.
• Buyers can purchase at any time.
• The auction ends when the inventory sells out.

Unlike a traditional Dutch Auction, there’s no single clearing price. Each collector pays the listed price at the moment of purchase.

What is First Day Issue (FDI)?

First Day Issue (FDI) is a Topps. com-exclusive SKU. These releases:

• Available online only
• Feature exclusive configuration or timing
