Pretty sure(though not 100%) that the next day delivery guarantee doesn't apply when it is posted from WA to VIC or NSW, I think it says it somewhere in the postage bag.

With my understanding, the Draft 11 redemptions are autoed with last year's rookie class (Irving, Leonard...).

The checklist of Draft 11 is not out yet, the number says on the redemption card, for example XRCA doesn't mean you will get a no.1 rookie of this class. I think panini will hold their own draft on October (says on the redemption card) and to decide which player does each number relates to.
So, don't pay high price for the XRCA, it is not an Irving auto. All the redemptions should sell at same price before the actual checklist is out.

With Draft 12, they are just base card.

So it's a card number that doesn't exist but is possibly card #25, and you have no idea who any of the players are. People buying these will want to claim that it wasn't what it was advertised as, but the redemptions won't be returned until well after the claim window has closed... Does anybody at this company have any brains or any idea of the market???
