UD Blog - Connor McDavid Cup Honorable Numbers Error Situation

[RGM81]

http://upperdeckblog.com/2017/01/upp...mcdavid-cards/

The 2015-16 NHL® trading card season was a busy one with Upper Deck where the trading card giant conducted signing sessions with top rookies throughout the course of the year. During these sessions athletes are not always able to finish signing all the cards in one sitting, and such was the case with the 2015-16 NHL® Honorable Numbers Connor McDavid cards.


Upper Deck received the cards back signed by McDavid in two waves. The first were hand numbered 01/97-49/97 and 97/97. The second grouping of 47 cards came in late and missed getting hand numbered before packing out. Customers holding these cards without the numbering can submit them to Upper Deck to be renumbered 50-96 accordingly. Upper Deck will log the customer’s information and new card number in our records for cards sent in. Additionally, Upper Deck will include some complimentary sealed NHL® product to assist with shipping and the inconvenience when the numbered card is returned. (Emphasis added)


This card is part of the group of 50 cards that were received back first and numbered correctly.



This card is part of the group of 47 cards that was not numbered. Collectors in possession of these cards can send them back to Upper Deck to be numbered as part of the set.



Customers who wish to send their cards in to be numbered like the other cards in the set can contact Upper Deck via email with a scan of their card at [email protected]. From there they will receive a case number and instructions on how to send their card back to be numbered as part of the set.

Glad Upper Deck is fixing this numbering issue. Nicely done!

2 waves for 97 cards, that's a hoot. 999 ok but c'mon it's not even 100

Add that to the 99 rpa, the 50 limited logos, the 99 signature patches, the 35 scripted swatches, the rookie gear, the gold, the card with multiple players on them. You would think he would be able to get them all done in a day, but since UD put out like 18 products last year I am guessing he had to sign more than 1000 autos in each sitting.

Gotta keep the quality signing hand fresh!

Not surprised by the 2 waves. Plus who knows when these signings take place. I'm sure some signings McDavid has a lot of time, while others he does not. He's probably a pretty busy dude off the ice as well.

Why are they even hand numbered ? they need to stop with that its so ugly and feels cheap for a product that costs 700$/tin.
