[quote="Greg Cleveland":2jvwife1]Now that I have your attention, let me clarify: I hve been registering the points with the codes on the back of the cards since they started it. I know, anal, it's for kids, why bother, etc, etc, but it's OCD in action. I get it from my kids. Anyway, I was filling in some points from the stuff I bought over the weekend (see Box Break page for the hilites) and as I was looking over the prize list, this one caugt my eye. For a mere 2000 points, you can order an authentic game-used MLB baseball. They will have an authentification number, so you can look up what game your ball was used in. I'm sittin' here with well over 200,000 points, so why not? They don't have any decent product to order with points anyway. So the order has been placed today, and we'll see how long it takes to get here, what condition they are in, how are they packaged, yada, yada, yada. I'll keep everybody posted.

I just checked my account. I remember when it started my daughter entering all the cards in. Then she got bored and it ended there. I logged in now and it said it was for kids under 17. When I first registered I used my info as I would not put my kids info out there. They said any points accumulated by an adult and not claimed by the deadline (2007?) would be turned into UD Reward points (useless). So we lost all our points. :evil: I know we would have enough for a few baseballs at least. BTW I checked and it is showing the balls for 20,000 points not 2,000. Maybe its different for each user?

:shock: You didnt realize that when the points were converted to UD Rewards points they were just changed over to a more adult type site where you could purchase an insane amount of Auto'ed memorabilia??? I checked out their site for it and they have some great deals, points wise on some sick items. Tons of auto jerseys, footballs, baseballs, basketballs, team photos, and so on. The points arent just used for a discount, you still could have used them on autod memorabilia. Ill take your points if you dont want them![/quote:2jvwife1]

They even recently took down links to the trivia game they had to get more points.

Wow. So I just made a new account and started entering codes, and says "You've Reached Your Daily Limit". I entered 30 codes for 838 points. Not to mention, when I first started doing it 2 years ago the minimum amount you could get for 1 card was 40. I think the most I got for 1 card was 39.

I remember, when it first started, you could get 250 points per card if you were lucky. Then they just changed it to where it's almost impossible to hit anything over 75.

 

[Utleyfan1]

I hit a 150 today! Haha

My brother is 17 and has an account so I just started adding codes into his account to see if he can at least get something before it ends and I entered the "daily limit" and got over 1500 points.

If anyone scores a Cubs or Cardinals game used ball, please let me know. I would be interested big time!

I received one of those balls and it was from the 2002 ALcS Twins-Angels game 4. Johan Santana was a middle reliever and David Ortiz had the only RBI for the Twins loss 7-1. Radke vs. Lackey!

That I did not know. Shows how much I pay attention. I have a measly 639 points sitting there on the "adult" side of town, but I don't see where I can use them. Everything I see listed is for straight cash (*****.) Was there a link for auctions that is gone now?

I had the same problem when I got the email, thinking it was simply points towards a discount. I actually only found the site while looking for an email to complain to :lol:
See if this link works. It shows completed auctions going back a while.

Unfortunately most items go off in the 1,000's of points.
