Anyone Know About 05/06 Kostitsyn & Whitney RC's?

[netsinah]

I'm still waiting with 3 of each 05/06 Cup redemption cards, in order to complete sets. I hate not to complete sets, especially for a higher end product I've spent so much time/money on. Perhaps it's stupid on my part to wait so long...but I've never heard one way or the other whether UD is going to honor the redemptions.

Does anyone have any solid info either way? If the cards are still in the works, does anyone know what's happening with them (for example, do they exist and is someone hounding the players to sign?). My dealers never seem to know.

Has everyone else given up and replaced their redemption cards? If so, what BV or type of card did you get in return?

Any input would be appreciated. Vaughn

PS: sorry about the title omitting reference to the Cup...that's what happens on a Saturday morning before the first cup of coffee...

The Kostitsyn is not being made. Don't know about the Whitney. You should call UD for a replacement.

I'd say that after 3 years, if UD hasn't made them, they'll never be made, no matter what their CS department tries to tell anybody.

I replaced my Whitney and was very unhappy with my replacement.
That was a year ago, and replacements have been consistently better lately.

Wasn;t there a story about the Kostitsyn cards? I think he or his agent lost them or something

No doubt.....after this long....Id pull the chute....hope they send you something good in return.....my fingers are crossed for you....

I'm still sitting on a Kostitsyn, but I'm unsure I want to ask for a replacement for fear of getting hosed. I might just wait until the new Exchange site is up and running before I do that.

My thanks to everyone who has responded. I'm still curious about what people obtained from UD in exchange for either RC. I think the Kostitsyn Cup RC should be worth good dollars, so I'd expect something really nice for it...

The story on the Kostitsyn Cup RC was that he did sign them but his agent reportedly lost them en route to sending them back to UD. When they asked him to sign a new batch he told them to stuff it. So the story goes. There was a guy who tried selling one of the redemptions on eBay not long ago and he got, ahem, informed about how unscrupulous it was that he was trying to sell the card for $400 and that he was the only one on eBay with the card.
