topps chrome jumbo??? $199.00?? come on topps!-i guess if u are after the hard to get chase cards and can afford a few cases to get one then great
but for me it doesn't add up, comparatively to just a regular old fashioned hobby box of topps chrome,i.e.

tc hobby box 24 packs 2 autos 96 cards total price $63
tc "jumbo box" 12 packs (13 cards ea.) 5 autos 156 cards price $$$199.00

so in summary i can buy 2 and a half (or probably less to get to that 5th auto) boxes of hobby (24 packs ea.) and attain my 5 autos and come away with 240 cards total (84 cards more than "jumbo") and i actually have 3 shots (3 different boxes) at an abreu auto or multiple abreu autos

doesn't make sense to me ,but i'm probably missing something
also i forgot my price comparison point you can but 3+ hobby boxes for less than 1 "jumbo"
btw 1 have only bought 3 packs of chrome and it was junk (disappointed waited months for it)

You're right, it just doesn't add up. What's the missing piece to this? I never saw it advertised, but perhaps there's something exclusive to the Jumbo ?

Your guaranteed 4 '89 chromes per jumbo as well, still not worh it lol.

Not only not worth the mney, but I watched Chris Justice open 5 bxes and every box only had 4 autos in it.

Was there anything special at all? Box loader? Exclusive color s/n card? Anything to justify the hefty price tag per jumbo box vs. the less cost of 3 regular Hobby boxes?
I realize that Topps can be stupid sometimes, but they're not Dumb. It just doesn't make sense.
