re: redemptions
Topps has maintained the policy (whether you like it or not) that is a redemption is NOT fulfilled they will send you a card or equal or greater value. They have used Beckett as their "outside" third party source. Recently collectors have been receiving replacements for cards and they have been of the design below (Dawson, Pinella, now Buchholtz). These cards are not pack available and have been made exclusively for replacements. When asked about were they obtained the value of these cards the answer from all Topps employees was, "Our staff provide the value on these cards".
Has Topps has placed themselves in a precarious situation by failing to use and outside source and creating an unknown quantity of cards for replacement?
I would like to hear thoughts.
