The "parallel" on the redemption card seems to mean nothing and is just confusing both buyers and sellers.
I think the confusion was in the wording on the redemption cards for sure..to me,"Autograph Parallel" meant 'base parallel autograph' to the base SSP card 101, where "Autograph Parallel Green" or whatever would be the colored/numbered parallels..if there would have been "Autograph Parallel Refractor" redemptions, those would have been the /499 Refractor autos that were coming out of packs for other players..

All that being said, I think it is safe to assume that there is NO /499 numbered refractor autos, as there were no refractor redemptions, and that there were probably 4-500 of these "base autos" along with the colored redemptions. A few other points:

1. I have NOT HEARD of the 1/1 Superfractor redemption being pulled, and because of the green inscription chase, no one is mentioning if it has happened, there is no buzz about it..is it still out there somewhere in packs?
2. The Topps Now draft night autos were turned around FAST, I have not seen any of the /10, /5, /1 inscribed cards "live" yet, although there is a blue/49 on eBay that he inscribed "#1"...I'd like to see what the inscribed ones say.
3. It's cool they got everything out in time for the National
