RE: 2011 Bowman Chrome 5 Case Break and Contest Thread [SECOND CONTEST OPEN] - pyweed - 10-22-2011 Case #4, Box #12 Prospect refractor /500: Kyle Blair Cyan Printing Plate /1: Colton Cain Blue refractor prospect auto /150: Hunter Morris Comments: Okay, I broke my streak of bad boxes with a nice parallel auto and a prospect plate. Grade: B Case #4 Summary Comments: Even though 11/12 boxes were losers, this case wasn’t as bad as Case #2. It had three refractor autos, a blue auto, two orange prospect cards, and a prospect plate. I lost probably a little over $100 on it. Last case coming up! Grade: D+ RE: 2011 Bowman Chrome 5 Case Break and Contest Thread [SECOND CONTEST OPEN] - natejeffries - 10-22-2011 That definitely felt a lot worse than a D+. If you think you only lost $100 on the case, that isn't too bad. Its gotta suck getting Carlos Lee as your gold refractor. Best of luck on the final case.

Grade: D Case #5, Box #2 Prospect refractor /500: Peter Tago Blue refractor /150: Johnny Cueto Prospect auto: Matt Moore Comments: Any box with a Moore auto is better than average.

But eBay listing analysis posted by someone on another board suggests that Lawrie, Hosmer, and Ackley were either short printed or printed only for a subset of the parallels. Last I checked the information was equivocal for the Turner redemption card. Harper was supposedly NOT short printed, so I may just be unlucky. Would be nice if Topps would just tell us this stuff. It's not like it's proprietary information that would reduce sales if released. (10-22-2011, 04:15 PM)natejeffries Wrote: That definitely felt a lot worse than a D+.

Fortunately, a D+ case of BC is a lot less painful than a D+ case of Sterling! :O Case #5, Box #7 Prospect refractor /500: Tom Koehler Prospect auto: Matt Lollis Comments: Harperharperharper.
