Topps has told some people I've talked to that the redemption cards are being delayed till June/July for unknown reasons. You might have got this e-mail in the past month:

Dear Consumer,

This email is to inform you that the Topps Company is currently experiencing a delay in processing the following redemption card:

man, topps is getting worse and worse by the year...i called about a greg oden finest redemption i shipped in over a year ago...i'm on hold for about 15 minutes...when they finally pick up...i'm explaining my situation and the guy cuts me off while i'm explaining it, telling me it got pushed back till march.

Then, if thats not bad enough, he goes, "thanks for calling topps and have a good day" and hangs up...great customer service... :/

I'm seriously debating writing topps directly because most of the time, i dont even get responses to my emails and i'm not going to wait on hold like that again to get cut off then basically hung up on before i'm done talking, though i'm not sure what good that will do.

Anyways, i hope youre able to get the redemption card soon!
