Ok, here's the deal. I got a case in today. Busted the first two boxes and I've been shorted the autos in each box. However, I have gotten an Aflac Auto in each. Now, I thought the AFLACs were on top of the Chrome auto. Is that not right? I'm two chromes short too. Don't know if that makes a difference in opinion.

Opinions on what I should do?

Break More
Stop
Other

break the next box or 2
if they have AFLAC Auto's each, continue IMO, then complain to topps later after you've gotten 12 aflac auto's that you want 12 additional prospect auto's
if next couple boxes yield nothing, stop

I guess the next box might actually be the telling box. If I get no chrome auto and another Aflac, then I've got a weird case. I've never heard of someone getting 3 Aflacs in their case.

keep pushing for the aflac

but thinking in retrospect, 12 aflac auto's without a heyward or porcello is a pretty crappy break, so think before you act...Definitely break the next box or two, from then on, your call

Freeman, alderson and bumgarner ain't bad either. I know freeman's hit triple digits and an alderson was over 70. Both better than any base chrome auto.

but with no porcello or freeman or heyward which is very possible, you're stuck with ZERO big money cards and a pretty crappy break, idk, it's a difficult situation; I'd prefer the regular case

Bust another 2 boxes to see if you pull AFLAC autos. If you do, finish your break and call or write to topps. If you don't pull more AFLACS, stop your break and demand something good or a new boxes.

Just an update for those who don't visit the box breaks. I have gotten more Aflacs, plus boxes with 3+ autos in them. I am missing anywhere from 4 to 10 chromes in every box, but I'm getting multiple autos in every box now. So I can't complain

You thought u had a horrible case, but I bet everyone wishes they had your case jeez lol.

Yeah, after an uncertain start it turned out great. Actually ended up pulling 12 chrome autos like I should have plus 6 others on top. No doubt the craziest case I've opened ever. :mrgreen:
