2024 Topps Chrome color issues
Most of the time, the backs are a nice, crisp white. However, a few of them are an off-white, which is frustrating. Picture is below. $500 for a jumbo box and this is what we get? Below is a picture for context. It's more obvious in person.

Those are the super rare off-white back parallels! 1:5 cases!

Just have to look for pure white backs, hopefully the off colored ones aren’t stars.
If this drives you nutz, heritage will make you go batty. |

This is frustrating? I can barely tell.
Put them all in the same plane if shooting w/huge aperture  Topps has delivered off-center cards for years. On the fronts! That's worth complaining about. But this, I'm not sure most people would notice. Topps gave us backs that were flipped differently than other backs, so if the fronts were lined up, the card numbers on the backs were not aligned. Definitely worthy of complaint. Topps has packed out TOPPS CERTIFIED AUTOGRAPH ISSUE cards with no autograph. That's definitely a complaint-worthy fault.

People are really desperate for things to complain about these days…

How do you know that the off-white isn't correct, and all the whites are printing errors?
I would send these back to Topps

I'd be more upset about those horrific smudges!! You can barely ready any of the stats on #192.
