    Can someone do me a huge favour?

    Hey everyone,

    I recently opened some boxes of 2012 Goodwin Champions. It was my hope to hit one of the really cool redemption cards.........and I did! Here's the problem: I pulled an Emtomology card which can be redeemed for a shadow box card with a preserved insect inside. However, I live in Canada and due to customs regulations I an unable to redeem the card and get it over the border. I am looking for someone who would be willing to redeem it for me and when they receive it, send it to me in Canada. I would cover all shipping costs and offer additional payment to whoever is willing to help me redeem this really cool card.

    Best Regards,

    Tyler

    Congrats on the pull. I really hope that you find a way for it to cross the border safely. If UD isn't willing to send it direct because of legal restrictions, hopefully its because they are doing so because of international issues and not Canada specific issues. If its not safe to cross the Canadian border, a private citizen won't have any more luck than a corporation.

    Hopefully a nice American can help you out!

    Cheers,

    Customs is outta control - they won't let through a preserved (and therefore inert) insect? Damn...

    It's all about cost. Canadians are only allowed $15.00 Duty Free. A piece like this may net thousands if a true value is attached. The Douane at home want their pound of flesh, and will do whatever it takes to get it.

    a preserved insect card? lets hope customs don't tear the card due to the insect. however, if you label it as a trading card and they don't check the package you should be fine. but congrats on a huge pull.
