What's the longest you've waited for an UD redemption?

the 2008 SP Authentic set offered the only auto'ed rookie card of SF Giants rookie Alex Hinsaw. Since I collect Giants rookies, I went hunting. I saw that this card was only issued as a "redemption" card, so I bought one on Ebay and submitted it. That was in July. It's now 7 months later, and there's no sign of the card. It's still listed as "athlete committed to sign" on the UD redemption page, but I noticed that UD packed out a few Hinshaw autos in it's 2009 products.

My story... I pulled a Hockey auto of Rogatien Vachon and never got it. I did not let up on them. I told them how was to complete my set with out that card. Long story short, I was sent a very nice Gordie Howe auto and a full box of SPX Hockey.
Sometimes the players just never sign the cards.

So that's where my Yu-Gi-Oh cards are

thanks for that i needed a laugh today,, gosh thats funny,,, bj
<< <i>You will never see the card. I had the same problem with UD. If you call and complain they will offer you some other auto. Stick to your guns and tell them you want the card you have the redemption for. Don't give in, it might take a few phone calls back and forth.

I went ahead and called them up. After 20 min on hold, I talked to a CS rep and he basically told me that he didn't think the card would ever get signed, and said that they'd send me "some replacements". So, we'll see what get.
Sigh. Oh well. The nutty thing is that the card has a sticker auto on it, so I don't see why they have stickers to put on other UD products with this guy's sig but not this one. Maybe it's a different sticker????

Don't settle for carp. Hammer them until you get a card you really want. It's time they start giving the collector what he paid for.

Hinshaw's a minor league middle relief pitcher. We're not talking high-dollar cards.
I got it because it's his only autographed rookie card.
The CS guy asked me what my favorite team and players were and I said "SF Giants and Tim Lincecum". So, we'll see what I get.
Maybe they'll send me one of these? LOL

<< <i>I waited almost 2 years once and didn't get the auto I sent in. I was asked who my favorite players were and I said, Albert Pujols, Ichiro and Vlad Guerrero. They sent me an Adrian Beltre.

You should of called them back and said NO WAY. They finally shut me up when they sent me a SP Auth Gordie Howe auto.
I'm excited to see what I get. I hope they actually got Hinshaw to sign the cards, because it'd be his only Auto'ed rookie card.

<< <i>I believe I've gotten an email that makes me think that UD is sending me the actual card but it just included the name of the actual redemption card so don't be shocked if you get something else. >>
Yes, they won't change the name to what you're really going to get. It will always list the original redemption

The card I had been waiting for was apparently never signed.
