Is it just me, or is the Chrome baseball this year really crappy or what? The cards are bending like crazy and there doesn't seem to be really any great auto's this year. Not to mention I bought a couple packs yesterday and in one pack all the cards had roller marks, and in another I only got one card. Kinda worthless if you ask me.

    Absolute garbage. Most of the "rookie" autos are of guys that had rookie cards 2 years ago.

    I also had the same problems you had. Could have made a complete circle with about 6 cards.

    Many have compained about centering, roller marks and cards curving. I opened a few boxes and had many were like this. Few had sticky stuff on them.

    Yeah, the autos cl......Prices have dropped considerably. I pre-ordered 2 boxes for $70 ea. and just bought a case at Blowout for $34.92 shipped a box. We'll see if I regret it or not. Most likely will......

    Unfortunately all my purchases have been blaster boxes or rack packs. So no hobby redemption for me.

    Bought 1 blaster. I won't be getting any other boxes.

    This product could be remembered in hobby lexicon as one of the worst executed products of all time. It may become a MEME for the hobby.

    One thing it has going for it though, it has at least 4 pretty good autos in Strasburgh, Heyward, Stanton and Colvin

    Morgoth - would you expand on your statement "worst executed products of all time". I'm just curious, as there has been many products that are perceived failures. Why is this years Topps Chrome baseball so bad?

    I would also be interested in hearing other opinions if these problems have extended into Chrome football.

    Thanks alot!
