Retail Break 'Em: 2014 Topps Chrome Baseball Rack Pack Part 3

Every year since 1996, I have chased down Topps Chrome. I don't know what it is about the product, but I just love it.

This year I was a big more intrigued by the baseball version than most years due to Jose Abreu. You will catch onto this with my many breaks of it. For the third time I broke a rack pack. Each rack, or what Topps now calls "value pack", comes with 3 Topps Chrome packs and one bonus pack that has 3 Orange refractor parallels. These packs run you about $10.

My rookies:

Refractors and X-Factors. I always wonder what pitchers are saying behind their gloves. "Hey, sup. So you wanna come over Friday and play some PS3?"

 The orange refractors.

And a little boom. Despite his failure in the playoffs, he is still the leagues top pitcher. This is a tough Sepia Refractor pull coming in at 1:105.

Overall, I can't argue with Chrome. Value is found here once again. I definitely feel like I got my money back. If not in card value, at least in the cards themselves.  Topps Chrome once again proves to be the hobby's bright spot in retail.

Rookie cards. I like the Beckham.

The X-Factors...

Orange refractors. A nice one in Kershaw.

Overall, I can't argue with Chrome. This was probably the weakest break of the three so far, one blaster two rack packs,but I still felt great about the break. Topps Chrome once again proves to be the hobby's bright spot in retail.

Now onto my break!

Here is the best base card from the packs.

Rookie cards...MY MAN ABREU! Yankee PC rookie too.

Orange refractors including a Yankees PC one.

Overall, I am pleased again. The orange refractors are nice and I pulled the rookie card I was chasing. Value is found in Chrome once again.

This kind of break wants me to go back for more...which I will...
