I've submitted very few redemptions so I don't know much about how they work from a production side, but I submitted an Upper Deck redemption card about 5 years ago that was never fulfilled. I kept contacting UD and was told that they had a problem getting the cards signed by the player. Ultimately after years they offered to send me a replacement card of a different player. Since I PC this player, I've looked for this card for years and have never seen it for sale anywhere. I'm convinced it was never released.

I wish companies would come out and announce when cards are not released. I think most collectors would appreciate it and would trust the companies more.

I am as close to 100% certain that Topps did not release half of the checklist for the 2015 Topps UFC Finest Sponsor autographs. The cards were redemptions, so I am willing to bet that Topps waited until they got enough redemptions for the cards before actually making them and cards with none or limited number of redemptions were not made. I am looking for the Ryan Bader card specifically and in the past 8 years I have seen only 1 redemption card (it was submitted for redemption but was never filled) and no cards.
