ugghhhh! expired Topps Chrome Acuna redemption

[swarmee]

Topps used to be sticklers about not accepting redemptions after the cutoff date. They have softened that stance of late. Try inputting the redemption card into their website and if it rejects it, try to mail it in at that point. If they have the card still in stock, they normally send it. If they don't, you're probably out of luck.
For the most part, they use unfilled redemptions as damage replacements or guaranteed hit replacements when people want refunds/replacements.

Thanks John ... appreciate the recommendation.

Will give it a try ... really hoping they can make things work.

Have a great weekend.

Not that my opinion matters but life would be so much easier for Topps if they eliminated redemptions altogether. I know there are probably flaws with this theory but here is what I propose. If the 2018 Acuna doesn't come back in time then put the card in the 2019 version of the product. I know there are sell sheets and promises but they can put disclaimers in there. Maybe 2018 would include a 2017 autograph card of a Cody Bellinger RC and the 2019 would have a 2018 Ronald Acuna autograph card.

It's not perfect - but wow what a backlog of nonsense they would clear up. I get that having WS autographs while they are hot is a selling point at that moment but my buddy is still waiting on a Rick Porcello WS redemption from the last Red Sox title. That's just insanity.

Good luck
