A little back story... In August of 2009 I sent a redemption card to Upper Deck for an Isiah Thomas 2008-09 Ultimate Collection NBA Ultimate Signature Materials-Legend , this was also about the time I started to grow disenchanted by the bombardment of new cards, so I sort of just forgot about this card. Well, I've dove back in and even joined cool communities like this one. It was here that I was reading a thread about redemption cards and I thought "hey, whatever happened to that one I sent in?".
I logged on to UD's site expecting it to say that my card was sent and I figured it got lost in the mail. Nope, to my surprise it was still pending. Something about the player (Isiah) was still under commitment to sign the card and that I should be patient. Well, 5 years is plenty patient. I contacted them to see what could be done and they were pretty prompt in getting back to me. The rep said that if I didn't want to continue to wait (duh) I should name off potential players for replacement cards. I only collect Isiah, but for good measure I also listed some players that I knew I could at least profit from.
Fast forward to today... I'm very pleased with what I received.
