Worst box of 1996-97 Chrome EVER!!!
So I picked up a box at what I thought was a good deal.. $750.00
Now for those who don't know there are 20 packs of 4 which is about 1/3 of the set....and this set has the RC's of Marcus Camby, Kobe, Iverson, Antoine Walker, Steve Nash, Tony Delk, Stephon Marbury, Ray Allen, and a few others... Plus Jordan is in this set....
So I take the gamble and brek the thing open....
RC's received? Brent Barry.... that is it... Also got him as my Youthquake hit...
Refractor? Horace Grant....
Lucky if my $750 could even get me $20.00
Suffice to say I am an idiot for opening the box...

Wow, very sorry to hear that.. I have always wonder who would actually buy those box's cuz they are a very big gamble.. Hopefully you'll get better luck on your next box you bust...

yea Barry was drafted in 1995. Maybe it was a 95-96 box?

No he said:
"RC's received? Brent Barry.... that is it... Also got him as my Youthquake hit..."
and we're saying Brent Barry wasnt a rc. There were several non rcs in the Youthquake set.
