2024 Bowman Chrome Mega Box Baseball value
2024 Bowman Chrome Mega Box Baseball puts a late-season Mega Chrome twist on Bowman Chrome. But is it a good candidate to buy and hold unopened? Let’s look at what recent comp sales for boxes from the last few seasons can tell us.
| Year | Recent Comp Price |
|---|---|
| 2024 | $45-60 |
| 2023 | $45-50 |
| 2022 | $45-65 |
| 2021 | $25-40 |
The recent comp prices for a box don’t show any major upward movement potential compared to the release price. That suggests these are not good candidates to buy and hold unopened in the short term, although at least they don’t appear to lose significant value from the release price.
What about singles? What can a look at recent sales of 2023 Bowman Chrome Mega Box singles tell us about the potential for bit hits in 2024 Bowman Chrome Mega Box baseball?
The high water mark, unsurprisingly, is made up of 1/1 parallel versions of autographs of some of the top names. A Chrome Rookie Autograph Black 1/1 parallel of Corbin Carroll in PSA 9 Auto 10 sold for somewhere south of $7,000 (best offer accepted).
An ungraded Deyvison De Los Santos 1/1 rookie autograph sold for somewhere south of $5,000, and a PSA 10 Jackson Chourio 1/1 Black Refractor autograph sold for $1,225.
Prices drop from there, but there are several recent sales in the $400 to $750 range (both graded and raw), suggesting there’s the chance for some sizable hits from a reasonably priced box. Of course, this caliber of hit is far from guaranteed, but the potential is there.

2024 Bowman Chrome Mega Box Baseball pros & cons
Every product has pros and cons when deciding whether to purchase and break them. What are some of the pros and cons of 2024 Bowman Chrome Mega Box Baseball?
Pros
- With a buy-in price of $45-60 for a box, these represent a reasonably priced break that should provide a quick and fun break, with the chance at some decent hits.
- With a mix of both Bowman Chrome and Bowman Chrome Mega Box in the box, you get a variety of products to liven up a break.
Cons
- There are no guaranteed hits so a break comes with a relatively low floor. At the buy-in price, that may be acceptable, but be aware.
- With only two of the seven packs in the box being Mega Chrome packs, these may not be an ideal product if you’ve already gone heavy on 2024 Bowman Chrome and aren’t looking to open more.
