I asked the same question already. Someone must have lost a bet on the production team.

Yeah I only got 4 autos and 1 red in my 4 boxes.
The people getting multiple autos in a box are often people that got 2 or even 3 autos in the same pack.

My 4 boxes were pretty brutal

4 autos:
Lars Nootbaar #/50
Jimmy Rollins #/50 with a terrible auto, Sharpie looks like it ran out of it can barely see it
Trey Mancini #/50
Casey Webb #/25

No reds or 1/1s
1 Wemby mini, no base

My son “bought” one box from me

Here were his best results… Posada is #/25. Got 2x Trout mini. No Victor of any type.

I purchased 3 boxes from Topps. Was going to open two of them and keep the other one sealed.

They arrived last night and I ended up opening all three. No red nor silver mini's in the boxes.

Box 1 auto was a silver framed auto of Charles Leblanc #'d 09/50, 1 Wemby base and 18 mini's (not sure how many were high #)

Box 2 was interesting. Prior to ripping the shrink wrap I noticed the box seemed to be a bit full and thought maybe there was an extra pack inside. There were the normal 18 packs; however, more than a few packs had 4 minis in the pack (they were all together, not spaced out in the pack) and others had 3, some 2 and a few had zero. I ended up with 33 minis in that box.

Box 2 auto was black framed Myles Montplaisir #'d 01/25 and incldued 1 Wemby base.

Decided to open Box 3.

Box 3 auto was black framed Jeter Downs #'d 4/9, 1 Wemby base and I think 19 mini's. Also in this box was a Gunnar Henderson variation SP.

I noticed a few other variation SPs: Jackie Robinson, Randy Johnson, and Derek Jeter. Still have to sort through all the cards, but again, there weren't any number mini's nor Wemby mini's.

As previously stated, last year I pulled the Julio Rodriguez 1/1 silver mini from a box I bought from an acquantence of mine at a local card shop. That Juio is now owned by forum member KiddKicks.

First post - look forward to discussing cards with everyone - 4ish months back into the hobby after a 25ish year break (seems fairly common as the hobby picked up during covid)

Seeing some pretty brutal breaks which makes me feel slightly better about my pull out of 1 box.

Got an Ermsy auto 3/5 and a Pena red mini 2/5. Got a base Wemby also.

Any feedback on the Ermsy card? Seems very popular for the non-baseball autos

Box 1 of 4 opened by a customer this morning, had a red (oddly, numbered with a ballpoint pen in the middle of the card) and a Pickle-ly Auto. Love this product, always seems super hit or miss, but really fun to open and watch opened.

The /25 from regular Ginter have sold in the $250-400 range. If I was selling yours I’d list at $500 obo.

Was the limit 4 per customer or 4 per order?

He probably bought more on the secondary market

I bought 12 from others who were flipping the wax immediately, for instance

Super cool card but I don't really have a personal connection.

Who else is holding this box for the long-term?

I have 19 boxes coming my way. I’ll hold most for the long-term but will also sell some at some point to lower cost and recoup funds (as usual).

Shaping up to be my worst ginter x break ever since i started ripping in 2017. I'm just massively disappointed. I've personally had a rough couple months personally health wise and losing a loved unexpectedly in an ugly way and reallly needed a pick me up and Ginter X is my favorite product of the year..but it's just not happening this year. Another shitty auto (Charles Leblanc numbered to 25 LOL) and a Wemby base. That's it. So far no numbered cards..no good mini rookies..no good SP rookies..just 3 shitty autos and 2 Wemby base. Sorry for the rant..this just has been a total bummer. Only silver lining is the price point

And to complete the crap show if you want to call this the "best box" I guess

Wemby Base
Corbin Carroll SP
Gunnar RC
Shane Bieber Auto /25


Worst Ginter X Break ever..I've never not pulled a numbered parallel. Autos sucked beyond belief..and got 0 good minis. And I strongly disagree, you absolutely can lose on this product at its $70 price point.

Ugh… frustrating! We’ve opened only one box, and are on a similar trajectory as you, so far. Won’t know for a few months in total. As my son and I normally only do a few packs a week, and slowly try to put together a full set.

I don't expect to hit 2-3 autos a box or multiple numbered minis like some got..I did expect to get at least one Red parallel..i guess at least I didn't get shorted an auto..but when you pull Charles LeBlanc i might as well have been shorted

My 2 boxes sucked. Autos of Captain Sandy Yawn /25 and Corbin Burnes /50. 1 Wemby. No color minis

I am interested in the Barry Larkin silver mini 1/1 if anyone pulls it
