Case Of Emergency!

LuckBoxCa420 · 11-03-2007, 02:20 AM

I just got 2 cases of Bowman Chrome. Im 4 boxes into the case. I have reached a box that has only 3 cards per pack. Im pissed. I opened 2 packs, can easily feel the other packs only have 3 cards. Some feel a bit thicker.
I want to send this to Topps.How do I find the auto only?Im so pissed at Topps right now. Should I even open the rest of the boxes in the case?

One of my boxes had a redemption. So in a year I will get an auto out of the boxes I have opened so far...

LuckBoxCa420 · 11-03-2007, 02:38 AM

COULD NOT RESIST OPENED ANOTHER BOX. 3 CARDS PER PACK!

LuckBoxCa420 · 11-03-2007, 02:42 AM

3RD BOX OPENED, 3 CARDS PER PACK. IM DONE NOW

davebo · 11-03-2007, 07:24 AM

Was it a retail case?

sandlotsportcards · 11-03-2007, 09:47 AM

Sounds like a retail case to me. I believe those had 3 cards per pack

LuckBoxCa420 · 11-03-2007, 10:35 AM

Its a hobby case. I got it from Blowout, actually I got 2.Not all packs have 3 cards. In fact I did find some with more than 4 cards. I have packs still sealed with, what would be 1 or 2 cards per pack. I had to use a scale after opening packs from several boxes that did not have 4 cards in them.
What could be in these packs with 1 or 2 cards, 1 or 2 more check lists? Did Topps ever put out any packs with single cards in them, besides the Uncirculated cards and the Arod autos?

I got 3 redemption cards. This is my 4th Hobby case. I dont know anything about these redemption cards. Hadnt seen any of them sell prior to getting 3 of them. Anyone know what those tend to go for? I forget who I got, and dont think its a good idea for me to look right now.

07 Bowman Chrome Baseball didn't have checklists inserted into packs or uncirculated box toppers.

the only redemptions i've seen are from Wes Hodges & JR Towels.

that would be impossible for them not to have checklists. I have a billion of them!
Yes, I got 1 Hodges Xfractor, selling for around $20 on Ebay, and 2 Towles base redemption, selling for around the same on Ebay. Yippie skip. Other "hits" base Justin Reed Blue,Brad Lincoln Blue,Kevin Mulvey X,Chad Rogers X,Chris Coghlan X,Chad Rogers Ref,Josh Rodriguez Ref,Greg Reynolds Ref,Justin Reed Au,Will Venable Au,Kevin Mulvey Au,Chad Rogers Au,Chris Coghlan Au,Jeremy Paplebon Au,Cedric Hunter Au,Fernando Martinez Au,Cesar Nicolas Au,Mark Hamilton Au 2 Luke Hochevar Au's

Nice, I like getting 2 of the same POS's. That way it takes up more space to keep it around.

I got SCREWED here, any guesses how much I will loose? How about we have Blowout set up a "Where will it end" contest. You can all place your guesses below. Maybe the prize will be one of my mystery 1 card packs of Bowman Chrome.

Ryan Braun Gold Ref,finally Pulled a Braun Refractor,oh wait....
Nick Markakis Gold
Robert Rohrbaugh Gold
Chris Salamida Gold
Russell Martin Gold
Alex Rodriguez Gold
Mike Cameron Gold

Ole Sheldon Blue

Randy Johnson Blue
Michael Cuddyer Blue
Paul Konerko Blue

Anyone notice a pattern?
I cant imagine a worse break than this

otmack2o · 11-03-2007, 01:01 PM

I received both my Hodges and Towles redemptions back from Topps in the mail last week so if you do redeem them it shouldn't take long to get them back.

If you are looking to sell any of the cards, let me know via PM. Thanks.

The checklists were not inserted into packs.
