RE: 2011 Bowman Chrome 5 Case Break and Contest Thread [SECOND CONTEST OPEN]
Case #2, Box #11
Gold refractor /50: Trystan Magnuson
Refractor prospect auto /500: Jordan Swagerty
Comments: Nice color, and I actually like Magnuson, but I don’t think there’s going to be a lot of demand for his cards, even if he makes the team next year.
Grade: D
Case #2, Box #12
Prospect refractor /500: Cameron Bedrosian
Blue refractor /150: Carlos Peguero
Xfractor USA U18 auto /299: Chris Okey
Prospect auto: Trey McNutt
Comments: Ouch – this was not a case to write home about.
Grade: D
Case #2 Summary
I had just one box that was clearly worth more than I paid, and 9/12 were losers. I’m afraid the Manny Banuelos base auto was the case hit. That’s definitely not what one is looking for with this product. I lost $150 easily in this case; would have needed a Harper auto in the last box to salvage it. I’m going back to grade Case #1 now; in retrospect, it was really quite good. I’m feeling better and better about the super. But again, that was Case #1 – #2 was a dog.
