Second 2011 Topps Chrome Break (pack shortage)?
Got my 2nd box in today, noticed they were packed in there funny so I counted them up. Had 23 packs instead of 24 so I immediately thought "great I'm only going to get one auto and it's gonna be a doozy"
Goin through the packs about pack 5 or 6 I hit an eric sogard auto- not too thrilled, though in that pack was an eric hosmer base so I'm happy about that. Gettin down to about 4 or 5 packs left and I pull the best of my 2 boxes so far (1st box I pulled a Brandon Belt Sepia Auto)- this time around, it's the Brandon Belt Printing Plate Auto-- definitely made the pack shortage worth it.
Will post a scan of it tonight afteR I get off work- Thanks

Super pull there man! That beats my Belt blaster auto for sure.
The Giants guys will probably give you the kitchen sink for that one.

Here you go folks- that Belt will be going to an auction site- I'll use the $$ to buy my Hosmers- sorry to those looking for trades- everything else I can add and trade if any interested. Thanks

Thanks- I'm sure hoping so- Hosmer prices are through the roof.
