Default 1 Box of 2012 Topps Chrome

Broke 1 box of 2012 TC, didn't make my money back on 1 card (which I understand is REALLY HARD TO DO) however I think I did well

Addison Reed Vase Auto
Shaun Marcum Blue Refractor
Harper/Darvish/Lawrie/Middlebrooks RC
Jesus Montero Gold refractor
and
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
JACOB TURNER GOLD REFRACTOR AUTO

So overall I think I'm happy with this box. So my question is, should I be? Was it a good box? Any opinions help. Also, hold or sell?

I'm holding Turner right now, personally. I think it's worth the gamble. Dude could be great.

Wow I watched 5 cases get broken with ZERO turner. So a gold is very good. Apparently he is SP in 2012 chrome.

If i buy a box for $100 and don't hit anything i want to keep. I then will sell what i pull to recoup as much of that $100 as i can so i can buy more. So if you ask to buy a card i pulled and i give you a deal at $20 DLVD and they sell consistently for $28 on ebay DLVD. WHY ON EARTH WOULD I SELL IT FOR $10-15 WHEN I CAN JUST SELL IT ON EBAY FOR $28???

Seeing as how I picked up a Red Turner auto for $45, I would absolutely hold right now. His stuff will surely go up with a few wins next season!

I just looked, he has no refractor auto, does that mean is for sure SP?

I was thinking that...because we aren't seeing many of his autos, in fact very few of them. I'm thinking there is a good chance it is a SP. If so, that'd be cool.

The base auto is an SP, but realize the #d cards are inserted at the exact same rate as the other numbered cards.

That's a very nice box. I agree with everyone else on holding onto it for a bit to see how well he does.
