I love 24 chrome. They did a great job all around. Price is too high. There’s only one base auto that you can sell to get your money back on a hobby box. That’s a huge sign on how expensive the boxes are.

Mr Stryker, in your chart with the different formats, do you take into account that these blasters have 32 cards, not 28, for the pricing per card? I know it's a minor point, but the 2 sepias and 2 pinks are in addition to the other cards. So, 7 packs of 4 cards each, but 4 of the packs will actually have 5 cards. It was the same last year. It's also that way with flagship blasters and holiday cards. Those are extras. I always open packs one at a time, to stretch out my pack-opening enjoyment. 😂 Great video. I opened 2 so far, one had a rookie auto, Randy Wynne. 😃

Here my take on this and Topps Chrome in general. It’s trash. Sure you can get that one big hit but your chances are very low. Unless you are a major breaker spending thousands, ordering by the case, you aren’t hitting anything. I ripped 4 blasters last night and got ONE good card pink Colton Cowser. I ripped 2 Jumbo Hobby and 1 Hobby and all 7 autos were garbage. The best card I’ve got out of all of these packs is a Judge Prizm and a Pink Elly from a sport memorabilia store local (random pack). I have nothing against Stryker or any other breaker they are amazing people and love baseball. It’s just frustrating man!!

Tell you what, the expanded check list as made collecting 2024 Chrome really difficult and super expensive, especially when a hobby box is $200+ and jumbos are at $500. Those are stupid prices. One of three jumbos I've ripped was awesome. The other two were.....OK. The two hobby boxes I've ripped were bad. Haven't had any luck with blasters either. Maybe the trick is buying a case of blasters? Buying one or two off the shelf just doesn't make sense financially.

Retail sucks at that crazy price point. I love the chrome cards. But the price point is to delusional compared to what singles sell for. I hit a kjerstad base auto, Cowser purple refractor #/250, and Wilyer Abreu blue sonar #/125 out of my hobby box. Those three cards of what I consider B tier rookies didn’t even cover half the cost of my hobby box. I feel hitting B tier or C tier rookies like that should help you break even. Your A tier rookies should put you in the green. Which isn’t the case anymore. And let’s not talk about the Mason McCoy autos they put in here to rob people of a hit. Dude is a 30 year old Padres rookie who had one AB last year and will never hit the field in an MLB game again. And as a Padres a religious padres fan who lives out here and goes to a ton of games I had to google the dude to find out who he is. If that’s the case he should have never made the checklist. Save stupid stuff like that for low end products. Definitely falling out of love with this hobby.
