Topps MVP Buyback Promotion rewards MLB collectors

If you found the MVPs in packs of 2022 Topps Chrome, you have a buyer.

That's because Topps is buying back copies of Aaron Judge and Paul Goldschmidt cards from the set as part of the Topps MVP Buyback Promotion that begins on Saturday.

The program lets you can cash in for store credit at your local card shop or via Blowout Cards if you don't have one and it's good for cards from standard Chrome release as well as the Logofractor Edition and the 2022 Topps Chrome Sonic set coming in February 2023.

It will run until March 31, 2023, when a new baseball season begins. It's part of a Small Business Saturday effort from the company -- a move to help out all of the card shops around the country as well as spark even more interest from collectors.

How does it work? It's as simple as above with the various types of cards for Judge and Goldschmidt having varying rewards as you can see in the gallery below -- they range from $20 up to $200 depending on the scarcity of the cards.
