    $200 is outrageous for a box like this. $120 would be more reasonable. I finally got my 3 blasters in this morning. 1 auto, 2 numbered, a lightboard logo variation, and an Elly prism refractor. I'm excited for the mega boxes to come out in a few weeks

    I just work up the nerve to get a hobby box and they raise the price to $224! 😠 😂
    I'm gonna save my $$$ until chrome update and maybe buy a case chasing Skenes! Until then I'll watch you and concentrate on filling any holes in my collection! I'm also gonna try and figure out the wonderful world of ebay white envelope shipping and try to sell a few of my doubles! Anyway enjoyed it as usual!

    Tough making any profit off chrome this year with the product being so expensive. I bought one jumbo box. Ripped some really good cards, however not sure I broke even. I got an Evan Carter purple speckle refractor auto /299, Gunnar Henderson green refractor /99, Acuna green speckle refractor image var SP /99, Holiday and others base. With all that I doubt I’m even close to $400. Thanks for sharing!
