Panini Redemption Experiment

[mxaxtxtx]

So, every few months I decide to give Panini the time of day and purchase a box of their product. A few years ago...it was Certified and I pulled a redemption for a Mirror Gold Signature of Ovie! Was really excited and submitted...10 months after the fact I requested a replacement when it didn't appear they were going to ship it. At that point, I was done. Few months ago, decided to give them another chance and bought a box of '11 Elite, '11 Contenders, and '11 rookie anthology. Was thrilled to pull a Nugent-Hopkins/Landeskog dual auto out of contenders. Also pulled a Bulmer RC auto out of Elite. At the time I pulled these cards (May 2013), they were both live. I received the Bulmer a few weeks ago, somehow, almost 100 days after the fact, I haven't received the Hopkins/Landeskog dual auto.

So, this thread is monitoring the experiment...100 days after the fact for a live card...to see just how long it takes Junkini to get me my card. Let the games begin! (3 and a 1/2 months after the fact)

Have you tried to call them. When I did I got a answer and always received all my redemption. Never had to call for a replacement. One took a bit longer but it was a Hard sign auto and wanted it. They explain that they needed to fabric a new card and why it was taking time since it was a special cut card. Well they explain things, I decided to wait it out and got my card I wanted. There is never enough hard sign card out there. Was worth the wait. But calling can get you answer.

The issue with redemption is at time player can loose the cards and I am sure they would rather send the cards faster but sometime they can only wait after the player. Summer is not always a good time as many player may be on vacation. Camp will start soon and often redemption follow soon after. Good luck.

I called about a month ago. At that point, I received the Bulmer but not the Hopkins/Landeskog. The Hopkins/Landeskog had been live for at least a few months prior to me pulling it.

Sometimes you have to chase them (you shouldn't have to but...)

I would think that they would have a database that would display a redemption that is entered that is in stock. But it looks like that doesn't happen.

Called back again today and was informed that they have no more in stock and are waiting for more to be signed.

Decided to replace, was offered a Kreider/Silfverberg/Baertschi Triple Auto out of 2012-2013 Panini Prime /25. Took it because I didn't want to wait any longer.

Any thoughts on this replacement?

Nugent-Hopkins/Landeskog dual auto out of contenders.
I also had not recived mine so emailed them last week pointing out it had been live forever.
Same day i got a mail back saying they packed it and sent it....not recived yet but hoppefully.
As for the Kreider/Silfverberg/Baertschi Triple Auto out of 2012-2013 Panini Prime /25 as a replacement depends on if you are selling it or keeping it.
Landy/Nugent dual auto hardsigned is a bit better i think but you didnt get scrap in return either.
