Default I'm over 50% in pulling red autos in Topps Chrome

I have had 5 boxes and pulled 3 red autos (Ivan DeJesus Jr, Drew Hutchinson, Carlos Martinez) The boxes i had of topps chrome are 2011, 2012, 2013 x3. In 3 out of the 5 boxes i had a red refractor auto. I never liked Chrome until 2012 came out where i pulled a Hutchinson auto red, next box was a 2011 with a deJesus red auto so i was 100% after that, i had two boxes of 2013 and on i got two base and the other a sepia. Now in the box i got today i received another red auto of Carlos Martinez! Worth $90 payed for the box.

All I'm saying is I have good luck with pulling red refractor autos in Topps Chrome

thanks for the news man. also it probably isnt worth the 90 bucks for the box. probably a 75$ card.

In defense of Topps chrome, there are two autos.

When I busted Topps chrome in 2011, most of my top hits were non autos. Mantle/Hosmer/Pineda sold very well. Add in the USA autos, I opened about 15 cases and came out well ahead.

Haven't touched Topps chrome since, but there is much less risk in Topps chrome imo

2011 Topps Chrome, opened one box, hit a redemption for a "set" of 2011 Topps Chrome Blue USA autos, was new to the hobby kind of still at that point, so redeemed instead of selling.

2012 Topps Chrome, opened 2-3 boxes, hit a red auto of Wada, and the Bryce Harper sliding SP which went for ~$175.

This year opened four boxes, did eh but did hit a black Gattis Auto.

Topps Chrome!
