    tough call, if the auto is numbered then that, if it is not numbered then I would rather have a low parallel, etc.

    Depends on a lot of things. In general, go for the rarer card. If the auto is /100, and the Chrome parallel is /5, you have a lot better shot at finding another of the auto then of the Chrome parallel.

    depends on the #ing on both, but also the player, and some of what the cards looks like

    Yupp, I'd have to agree with the others. If the Chrome Parallel is very low numbered (basically anything under 25), I would take the parallel. Otherwise, I would probably prefer the autograph.

    Tough to make a call without knowing the player and what the Chrome is #'d to. If its /10 or less i would go with the Chrome over the auto. I would pick the auto if the chrome is /25 and up.

    Now that Topps Chrome is no longer being produced its in pretty high demand.

    Agree with what everyone says. The rarer the card, the harder to trade for. Get the lower #d one!
