In addition, doesn't retail also always have 3 cards per pack?

the product info says 4.

The link above says retail and 4 cards

Ah, OK. But the case does appear to be hobby based on the "product features". It says 7 parallels / box, 1 auto / box, and does not mention the retail exclusive purple refractors.

also the discount is for 1 item, so If you spend over $50 for 1 item(free shipping), you only get a discount for 1 item, do each box you want separately and enter the code and bigcrumbs each time you order

why not just buy a case?

How do you order multiple cases? Can you only use the code once a day?

Again, I'm not saying I'm right, BUT, when MLB.com and other webstores initially listed the Bowman boxes/cases, they DID LIST the Strasburg autos -- and listed all of the hobby stuff.

What was shipped was retail.

Just saying.

So for 806.00 thats a 2010 Bowman Chrome Hobby Case???

I sure hope so! Haha, if not, well...I won't be happy :). I'd think it has to be hobby though. Not only because of the picture they use but they are also seperately selling 2010 BC retail. And, for 800 bucks, I'll take a gamble.

I will bet you a box that it's retail.

Before 2010 Bowman blew up, these store and mlb.com were selling cases of 2010 Bowman. It wasn't specified, but it was certainly retail.

I'll take that bet :). They are asking 1080 per 12 box case. They are selling retail boxes seperately for 72. If they were selling retail cases, wouldn't they be asking for about 860(72x12)? The prices they are asking, the photo's the use, the information they have and the fact that someone called and they said it'd be hobby makes me think....it's hobby :).

I also wanted to mention(and make this it's own post) that I DID order a case last night for 809.99. I got a customer service email today saying the item will ship when it arrives, blah blah blah. The key sentence I wanted everyone that's thinking about ordering to see is this:

"Please remember that your credit card will not be charged until the
item(s) has shipped."

That's a direct quote from the email. It looks like its a automatically generated CS email, so it must be common for them to do that. So my money won't be held hostage for 2 months and I seem to be locked in at a decent price. Seems like a great deal. Hopefully it all works out!

You can, if they sell by the case..
If you buy boxes, the discount showed it was for 1 box out of 20 I put in my cart
If you wanted to buy 5 cases, the discount is for 1 of the 5 so I'm saying if you plan on buying more than 1, might as well order them separately and take advantage of the discount for each..
Didn't see anything if it is only good for 1 purchase a day only..

The fact that he called makes me want to recant the offer. :)

Contacted Global since the owner says he will match or beat any price... said he would not match or beat the price, said he felt it was retail only... who knows, he may have bought the rest of the inventory... ;)

No, he just doesn't want to sell it for $800.

PERIOD!
