I would wait. If I was going to ask for a replacement it would be for the Bradley.

I'd wait. Probably wont get anything real good for those. I have 4 redemptions pending right now and a couple of them have been pending for months.

I would wait on the Seager unless they offer you something better. Sometimes you can get lucky. Seager is supposed to be a legit prospect with the Dodgers. I would see what you can get in place of the other one though.

I've been waiting for just over a year now for a Ty Cobb relic from 2012 Topps ... Not knowing what they'd replace it with is the thing that keeps me hanging on ... I've got a few other more recent redemptions, a Matt Kemp/Ethier dual auto and a Ken Griffey Sr Auto that hasn't been sent. Figure if I forget about them, and they show up, I'll be really happy that day.
If I keep thinking about it, I just get aggravated.

I guess if I saved used tinfoil and used tea bags instead of old comic books and old baseball cards, the difference between a crazed hoarder and a savvy collector is in that inherent value.

Kemp still hasn't signed yet? Wow. If only he were as reliable as Derek Norris and Clay Holmes.

I have a pending relic from American Pie from a couple years ago of Jimi Hendrix. Like the Cobb, I just don't get it. I understand the problems and logistics of trying to get autographs from modern players. I'm sure it's hard to get them to show up on your schedule. I don't understand, at all, the problems with relics from the past. Either they have the relics or they don't. I would imagine the prices are fairly stable on them, so they know how much it will cost them. I could see if it were a matter of just missing the deadlines to get them in packs, but months and years later doesn't make a lot of sense to me.
