along the lines of the earlier thread where another member also had a redemption for a Mariano Rivera Touched by Greatness Auto.

Here's what I got instead: AL Kaline 10/10 - sticker auto - why did they just have this laying around?

1/1 'cause Kaline choose to sign really really small making the white sticker area look like it is missing 3 other signatures.

If this was on card, I would say you did well, but you took a hit here. Could of been worse, it could of been Ozzie Smith.

the nice lady at topps said that they would send me some more cards as well.

I really wanted the Rivera. I had pulled another one and sold that when i got this redemption. that's why I was aggravated more than usual. I really wanted this one for my PC

I spoke to Amanda, who was very nice. I told her I only collect Rivera, and she said she would do what she could to send me a Rivera replacement. I then apologized for being dorky, but that the "Touched By Greatness" cards carry a premium over a sticker auto card, because they were hand-signed opposed to the stickers. She told me they'd send me something "Way Better" and to just keep the Ozzie Smith.

Hmmm, I guess it depends on if you were planning to list it or keep it. Personally I'd rather have a Mariono Rivera auto.

It comes easily for him. I'm sure we'll only see him comment if the replacement is bad.

No, I will SH#@_ my pants if the replacement is good. For every one person who (rightfully) complains about getting
screwed on a redemption replacment, there are 20 who say nothing. Topps knows this and I'm amazed STILL by the
number of "collectors" who think it is ok.

It is not
