Re: 2008 Bowman Chrome 11 Case Break

I think I got the good cases too early, looks like a rough ending. Can’t seem to hit A-Jax or Villalona to save my life.

Re: 2008 Bowman Chrome 11 Case Break

Well, that was a fairly disappointing ending to my case breaks. The last several cases were pretty weak. But I did have some really great cases.

Overall, I think these cases have pretty much bottomed out. For $400 a case or so, these are a pretty fun break. And there is a chance for some big hits.

If Topps hadn't screwed up and added so many scrub autos (say they only had 35 autos), these cases would probably be $600+. Hopefully they will learn their lesson next year. That being said, I think these cases, at current prices, have some potential and could hit $600+ when some of these guys make a big splash. There are some really great prospects in the base and Auto set, and there will always be guys that surprise us. Here's a brief list of some of the better prospects:

Base Set:

Carlos Santana
Yamaico Navarro
Bryan Morris
Jake Arrieta
Brett Cecil
Jhoulys Chacin
Juan Francisco
Dominic Brown
Carlos Rivero

Autograph Set:

Lars Anderson
Austin Jackson
Angel Villalona
Engel Beltre
Andrew Lambo
Plus many others that have a lot of potential, such as Jordan Schafer, Jordan Zimmerman, Cale Iorg, Austin Romine, Chris Valaika, Cole Rohrbough, Andrew Brackman, Ryan Kalish, Brad Suttle, and Mark Melancon.

Looking forward to getting my Bowman Draft cases. Busting a lot more of that, so that should help with getting some big hits. Thanks for the comments and thanks for watching.

Re: 2008 Bowman Chrome 11 Case Break

Well, I was going to post some pictures, but can't figure out how to do that. Can anyone tell me the easiest way to do that?

Go to photobucket.com and upload the pictures into an album, then the site will produce three or four links to copy and paste onto the thread. you should only use the one that says IMG code for forums & bulletin boards.
This doesn't make a whole lot of sense until you go to photobucket.



Hope this helps,
Anthony

Nice looking cards! Still bitter about my break as well as the brown refractors.

Not sure if you're interested but I have a complete prospect set from 07 BDP Gold.

I am going to be opening 2 more cases of 2008 Bowman Chrome to bring my grand total to 13 cases. I will be selling most of the singles in the Spring when the season starts up, but for now, if anyone is interested in any of the cards I've pulled, please email me at [email protected]
