Adam I'm not sure about the refractors, but a high percentage of the regular Chromes have some greening and the ones that don't almost certainly will get there. I forget the explanation now, it may be similar to why a couple of years of Topps Tiffany tend to yellow. It's actually interesting in hand.

It is the dyes. Perhaps one day it will be treated like silver coin toning, which has a varied reaction among collectors. Me, personally, I do not care for the greened chromes. I have a few...unintentionally.

As mentioned the consensus I've read is that they will all get there eventually, so if you want cards like the Kobe you won't really have a choice, but who knows.

Yeah there's been a stunning dive in some of the basketball cards. Nice move picking up that LeBron.

is this also going to happen to Topps Chrome baseball from 1996 or 1997?
