Panini Redemption Replacement

kingofsnake · 03-12-2023, 02:55 PM

I purchased a Jack Grealish National Treasures National Archives Sapphire Auto Redemption (of 25) soon after the product released. Today I received a FedEx from Panini - they had replaced this card with a Impeccable Andriy Shevchenko Indelible Ink Holo Silver (of 25).

I like Shevchenko better as a player, but was looking forward to getting a Grealish on card auto. I never asked for a replacement.

What do you think about this replacement?

You won.

Panini actually honored a redemption in any way?

Pretty fair sub to be honest. You probably did get the better end of it slightly though based on current market values, plus he is pretty well set in stone as a legend of the game, whereas Grealish is not.

they have "honored" everyone of mine in one way or another... eventually. some faster than others.

worst experience I've had is them replacing a Fernando Tatis RC auto with 100 panini points

Thanks for the input, guys. My initial feeling was also positive, but one down point is that Shevchenko is in a Chelsea jersey - his Chelsea days were pretty bad.

Does it really matter?

He's one of the top 50 players of the 21st century, and you've got it over a Grealish, I mean, you've come out of it well, even if he was wearing a trash bag.

I have not had the same luck. Have several still unredeemed years later. I refuse panini points exactly because of your Tatis experience.

I have an impeccable Graelish redemption - I'd absolutely love a Shevchenko swap. (Although as an Arsenal fan, probably not Chelski Shevchenko).
