1 box of 2008 bowman chrome

[chippernate]

Went to the local shop and got a box of chrome for 59. Also got this for 8:

Onto the box, wasn't a great box refractor wise. All vet refractors with just one blue and no x fractors. But i did get these in the same pack on top of each other:

Feel I did pretty good for 59. Should I sell or redeem the lambo? New to this prospecting stuff. LMK, thanks!
Edit: Anyone know the odds of getting refractors? 1 per pack or every 2 or 3 packs? PLMK, thanks!

I would redeem and hold. He has a lot of upside and hasn't shown enough yet to get much for the card. I think the risk that you will lose the $10-15 that you might get now is far outweighed by the fact that if he taps into his potential, that card could pay for your box.

Yeah, I was planning on keeping for the same reason. Happen to know the odds of refractors per pack ratio?

not off hand... I would guess between 1:40-50. Usually 4 or so Ref Au's per case.

I mean just regular refractors like vet refractors.

Pretty sure it's supposed to be like 6-8 ref. per box.

And not to be a jerk, but if your LCS is charging you $59 for 08 Chrome, he's
ripping you off. Completed boxes on eBay are $35-40 for months now, with
some going for less.

redeem the Lambo and keep it.
