Overall my hobby box of 2008 Bowman Chrome Football was a good deal. I paid $75 for it at my local hobby shop and I am impressed. I think Topps went back to the basics after the flop in 2007 and I think this product is a winner. The Topper was a silver refractor which comes 1:3 boxes, the Auto, which was in the Last pack of the box was an orange refractor auto. I pulled a great number of refractors including 1 XFractor #'d /250. Brett Favre is also in a Jets uniform which is one of his first Jets cards. The rookies are probably some of the best looking RC's of the year, comparable to '08 UD Masterpieces football. I think this product is an overall winner. Check out my box break on the box break forum for details and pictures of the orange ref. and others. Thanks!

I agree this product is very nice this year. Still though some stinker autos in the boxes. Broke two and got some decent stuff.

Thanks for the thoughts folks. I might go grab a couple of boxes this weekend. I had been holding off this year as I was not a fan of it last year.

I think that is a pretty wise decision. I think the price point is just right too. Chances of a Matt Ryan or Joe Flacco auto are pretty good. smile.gif
