I had a letter icon next to Cabrera and Rios, both show delayed, Braun does not. Seems like they all are delayed, I have not gotten a since 2009 A&G Auto redemption yet.

I think I figured it out. All of the codes I entered in July are now showing delayed. I think it is due to the "15 week delivery time".

I am buying a couple of the Braun Triple Threads redemptions in hopes that its a quick turnaround myself.

Sometimes I wonder if these card companies "overproduce" redemptions. Almost like airlines oversell flights in hopes that people don't show up (so that they get the money and have everyone that shows on the flight). In times where more people show up than the flight can hold, people are bumped to later flights.

Maybe card companies put out 40+ redemptions when they only have 25 actual cards (and the redemption states /25) in hopes that people will lose the redemption, forget to mail it in or simply not pull it in time (if at all). And in times where people DO start redeeming more than are available, they simply hold them as "delayed" until enough people settle for replacements.
