DO NOT BUY!
I thought I'd give this a try, since I just got VIP coins. I didn't see anyone commenting on how many cards were in the pack, but at 25k, I figured it was a good bet that I'd get at least one insert.
Instead, I got 3 golds. That's it. To add insult to injury, one of them was a Cespedes that didn't load completely at first, so all I saw was Red Sox red, Cespedes' name, and the "super rare" gold dust. Made me think I had pulled a sig. But no, just a virtually worthless Cespedes gold, to go along with a Kolten Wong and Brandon McCarthy gold.
Absurd and horrible pack for 25,000 coins.

Same happened to me, minus the Cespedes tease. I want to reiterate the "do not buy" rating. I'm sure for a very small window of time these will pay out with 5 inserts out of 10 cards, but it's far too risky.

I have seen guys say where they've gotten an Altuve and Cespedes sig in the same pack so I might try it when I get my Cardinals Key coins

I lucked out for about five minutes I was getting eleven cards per pack. I was able to purchase about ten packs before it went back to the junky three cards per pack. At three cards it's a complete rip off, at eleven cards, it was pretty awesome.

The 25k coin reward for key sets is really quite generous from Topps - at least, when you compare it to other things like the 10k duos that are much harder to find or trade for.
So of course now they've got the 7th Inning Stretch pack, and the Yellow pack, to get people to blow those coins immediately. I'm not biting!
