Default Upper Deck Replacement Mailday...Fair?

Just received my replacements today from UD...i was waiting for an 08 UD Exquisite Flawless Kevin Durant Auto/50 and a level 3 auto RC from 08 SP Authentic of Malik Hairston/199...for the Durant, i received a 09-10 Exquisite Buy Back Auto of Brandon Roy #6/9, and for the Hairston i received an 09 UD Black George Hill Auto Jersey #22/99...

at first, i thought these were fair replacements, but now i am not so sure...isn't Durant a UD spokesman? any thoughts will be appreciated!

Did you provide a list of players you collect? It sounds fair (they go by approx. book value). Did they ship via FedEx? I have replacements from UD that are shipped via FedEx that I haven't been able to receive - will pick it up tomorrow. The replacements are for 08/09 Exquisite Durant Inscriptions Auto and 08/09 Exquisite Durant/Green Dual Inscriptions Auto. I wonder what I'll get.

BTW, those 2 cards were from the same case of 08/09 Exquisite (along with a D. Rose Emblems of Endorsements (Red) /10).

i did not give a list...my only stipulation was that i felt an exquisite card should be replaced with an exquisite card and given the fact that Durant autos are only found in UD products, that consideration be made when replacing his autos...i really didn't have a preference as to what the hairston was replaced with, but kinda glad they gave me another spur...i hope you get better than i did...that dualsounds like it woould have been an awesome card! did you get the Rose card yet?

The Rose card was not a redemption. It came from the same case as the other 2 redemption cards. I will post what cards they sent me as replacements (after I pick up the package probably tomorrow evening).

I would rather have Durant. I would call them and tell them that you would want a Durant Auto from Exquisite. The Hairston for George Hill was a good replacement.

Problem is that Durant only has 07-08 Exquisite Auto's since he did not sign any of the 08-09 or 09-10 cards. 07-08 is his rookie year. I think it was a fine replacement. Those Roy Buybacks sell very well.

I'd say they were good replacements. The Roy is low numbered so that kind of makes up for the fact that it's Roy and not Durant.

I picked up my redemptions:
08/09 Exquisite Durant Auto Inscriptions /50
08/09 Exquisite Durant/Green Dual Auto Inscriptions /10

received:
07/08 Premier Mark Price/Brad Daugherty Dual Auto /20
07 Sweet Spot Adrian Peterson/Marshawn Lynch Pigskin Dual Rookie Auto /50

I'm leaning more towards the "unsatisfied" side. Is this fair?
