2021 Topps Chrome Platinum Anniversary Baseball Hobby Box

Wax Pricing

What are these options?

Hobby Box

The full-size box sold through card shops rather than big-box stores. It has the most packs and the best odds, and most modern hobby boxes guarantee at least one autograph or memorabilia card. Pack and card counts vary by product line. Older listings sometimes call this a wax box.

Mega Box

A mid-size retail box, bigger than a blaster and smaller than a hobby box. Mega-exclusive parallels are the main draw, and some megas guarantee a hit.

lite

Topps' cut-down version of a hobby box: fewer packs, and no guaranteed autograph where the matching hobby box does promise one. In exchange it carries a Lite-only parallel, the Black and White Mini-Diamond Refractor. Pack counts vary by product. Bowman Chrome Lite has run ten packs of five cards, Topps Chrome Lite sixteen packs of four.

Cases

The factory-sealed carton a product ships in, holding a set number of boxes. A full case is the whole carton; an inner case is a smaller sealed block from inside it. Case buyers get untouched pack sequencing and a lower price per box. Some rare cards are seeded about once per case, which is what collectors mean by a case hit.
