How do we handle one-off Redemption cards. For example, Panini was in a rush to get National Treasures out the door during the World Cup. As a result a few cards in different Insert Sets have Redemptions to submit, rather than the actual card, because they hadn't gotten the autograph back for the card. And it's not like the Upper Deck Redemptions for hockey, for example, where there is an Insert Set with a specific number of cards for draft picks that is known in advance

Do I just wait until I get the actual card sent to me to upload the image? Otherwise I'd have to upload the redemption card image and then create a separate mail-in set list and figure out all the cards across all the inserts that have redepemption inserts, which seems like a pain.

Both should be listed separately. The redemption card(s) you send in and the exchange card(s) you receive back.

Ok, but how do I do the exchange cards you receive back? Cause it's a little difficult to tell how many redemptions there are across all the Inserts. Is there an example of how we have handled in the past? Just don't want to enter anything and do it wrong

Might have to wait on the Exchange cards until more info can be found to determine a checklist.

Sure, 2017 Stadium Club

Redemption card is listed in an insert set called "Autograph Redemptions"

The actual card that was redeemed is the one that appears in the "Autographs" insert set

OC, this set doesn't work like that where all of the card in an Insert Set are a redemption. 

For example, this is the set in question

https://www.tradingcarddb.com/Checklist.cfm/sid/177704/2018-Panini-National-Treasures---International-Treasures-Material-Autographs

MOST of the cards in this Insert set appear in packs as you would expect. However, I have a Redemption card for one of the cards that has a Redepmption

So I won't have a whole set to enter as mail-ins (I've done this before for Upper Deck redemption sets). I guess each Inert that has a redemption in it needs a mail-in list created for it that might have one or two cards each.

It is exactly the same.  There are only 11 redemption cards in 2017 Stadium Club but there are 68 autograph cards.  I think you're thinking about this backwards.

You redemption card won't go into the set with the rest of the pack-pulled cards.  It will go into a redemption card set.  The card you receive from the company is the one that will be included in with the pack-pulled cards.

Ok, I think I get what you're saying. So nothing gets treated as a Mail-In, because the actual card you get back goes in the base insert set, even though it's not what you'd open?

And, I just create a separate "Redemption" varation for each Insert that has a Redemption card in it and post the card you open (that has the code on it) there?

Right on the first part.  The actual card you get back will be the one that goes in this set,

Not right on the second part.  We don't want the redemption cards listed as variations of the actual cards.   Instead an additional "International Treasures Material Autographs Redemptions" insert set needs to be created.  In that insert set will be listed all of the possible redemption cards that get pulled from packs.  But I think this is what C2Cigars was referencing when he said "Might have to wait on the Exchange cards SET until more info can be found to determine a checklist" (I added a word to clarify how I was reading his comment).

Rather than create the set, add your 1 card, and then have to add new cards as they are found, I think he is advocating waiting until a more proper checklist can be identified of the autograph cards that have a redemption counterpart.

No, we're in agreement on the second part too. That's what I was saying (perhaps poorly) : I need to know all the redepmption cards in the redemption set before I create it. Going back to add individual cards as they get discovered would be bad. 

So now I just have to figure out which cards have redemption cards in which insert. Should be fun.
