I wish I'd seen this post before I just made my last one. Sums up my problem nicely. Upper Deck didn't make the cards (ooops!). Packed out redemptions, and then decided not to bother dealing with it. Until I get my card.... or an explaination from Upper Deck stating otherwise.... there's not a whole lot anyone can do to convince me othewise.

The last time I bothered to look into it, I believe all of the following players Letter Marks from 06-07 SPGU went out as redemptions, and all of them are yet to be sent out:

1)Wayne Gretzky (kind of a big one there)
2)Phil Kessel
3)Guillaume Latendresse
4)Bill Ranford
5)Dino Ciccarelli

There may be more as well, I'm just going off the top of my head here.

I'd be glad to be corrected, but to the best of my knowledge ALL of these players had UD auto cards before this set released that were live, and all of these players had auto cards that have been live since.

I have a real hard time believing that none of these have come back, if they ever went out.

There was a rumour that the players signed nameplates a little late, except for Ciccarelli, who was (is?) a trouble signer for a while, and they were waiting for his to come back before making the cards with the next set of SPGU (ie. in 07-08), but obviously that didn't materialize.
