Just wanted to confirm if anyone knows do the base chrome packs contain anything other than base?

No one knows for sure BUT it's very unlikely that they do.

I've seen a lot of Logofractor box breaks and have only seen base (no extended base SPs either).

They could have colored this product blue, called it sapphire logofractor edition, let the distributors handle the product, and charged us $300/box for it.

Just be glad you had the opportunity to be a “distributor” and double your money selling to breakers.

Topps may yet do exactly that since SWS confirmed that nearly everybody will instantly go nuts over anything sapphire. It would be sold direct instead but may well be 300. I'm sure management is watching closely to see just how far they can push their luck

All 20 of my boxes (100 packs) contained all base. Nothing else.

I just pulled a redemption for an Oneil Cruz Future Stars orange auto from a base pack out of a Logofractor box.

I’m sure the guy who paid $3500 doesn’t want to hear that.
$300 would put it in the raw/PSA 9 Acuna Series 2 price range of which there are at least 10x as many total printed. Not saying it can't get there just saying if it does I will try and buy all 221. There are less of these than Sapphire Acunas. Not saying that is where the price should be but just to provide context.

That would be a fun kick in the balls, wouldn't it? People assumed the non-Logofractor packs just had base, but what if those packs contained SPs, and the SPs are just really rare and not enough packs have been opened yet.

We saw a whole case of this from NYC Store a few nights ago, I don't remember anything coming out of those base packs. I wonder if this is just a one off.

I still doubt that the SPs can be found in those packs but it'd be awesome if they were included.

Might be a pack out mistake, nothing else but base in 10 boxes worth of base packs.

Nothing like pulling a screw out of a pack, or live ammo in your fedex shipping box

It was in a base pack, not one of the logofractor labeled packs.

I'm thinking this was meant to be packed out in a traditional Mega. If not, wow.
