I love Topps products and am impartial to topps chrome but what the heck is going on Topps corporation?? I grabbed two 24 pack retail boxes from the same case and began opening the first box - working on refractor set and xfractor set -
Pulled these refractors -
Tyron Smith, Ladainian Tomlinson, Jon Baldwin, Maurice Jones drew, Peyton Manning, Edmond Gates, Brandon Marshall, Prince Amukamara
Pulled these xfractors -
Derek Sherrod, Derrick Mason, Johnny White, Michael Turner, Adrian Clayborn, Jimmy Smith, Vernon Davis.
Ok so I am thinking great, I should get 8 more refractors and 7 more xfractors from the next box. Started opening up the next box and something was looking awful funky and here is what was pulled.
Refractors -
Tyron Smith, Ladainian Tomlinson, Jon Baldwin, Maurice Jones drew, Peyton Manning, Edmond Gates, Brandon Marshall, Prince Amukamara
Pulled these xfractors -
Derek Sherrod, Derrick Mason, Johnny White, Michael Turner, Adrian Clayborn, Jimmy Smith, Vernon Davis.
Am I kidding?? NO! The exact same refractors and xfractors in the first box as in the last box. So I started looking through my stuff, I pulled practically the same exact packs in the second box as I did in the first with just a few different cards. Seriously, I would suspect that this could happen in different cases, but wow, two pretty much exact boxes in the same case. Noticed this happening with my blaster cases I bought as well that there were blaster boxes that equally matched the same blaster box in the same case. With the amount of players different cards in this set, there should be no reason for this.
Just sad. Enough of my rant; Guess I am just upset at getting crapped on every time I buy anything lately.
