The Topps Company Inc.

Review: I purchased a box of 2014 Bowman Baseball from [redacted]. the box is guaranteed to have 1 autographed card in it. When I opened mine, it had a redemption card for a Kris Bryant Green Refractor auto that you have to enter the code online. When I scratched the code on the back of the card, some of the letters came off and I was unable to read them to enter the code. I contacted Topps to see what actions I needed to take. I was told to send the redemption in and that it would take 3-4 weeks for it to be entered into the system. I sent it with delivery confirmation and a signature required so that I know they received it. It was mailed out on the [redacted] of April and received on the [redacted]. Today is May [redacted] and I had heard nothing about it. It had never been entered online by Topps on my behalf. So I called them and spoke with a customer service representative named [redacted]. He said he would call me back with some information. When he did call me back, he asked for the delivery confirmation number and I gave it to him. he placed me on hold and spoke to someone, not sure who and when he came back on the line, he told me that my card had already been redeemed and that I was not going to receive the card that I pulled from the pack of cards I purchased with my own money. I asked him how that was possible and he had no answer for me and told me there was nothing they could or would do. And that was it. There I was without my $1500 card. No apology, no refund of the box price, nothing.Desired Settlement: I want the card that I am supposed to get. The Kris Bryant 2014 Bowman Chrome Green Refractor autograph. There is nothing else they can do that will replace what they refuse to give me that rightfully belongs to me.

Review: On 09/**/15 I submitted a redemption card via online with Topps. The card was for a 2013 Museum Collection Momentous Material Jumbo Relic Autograph of Ozzie Smith MMJAR-OS1. On 10/**/15 I called Topps via their Customer Service number and spoke to Minerva in regards to the card. She stated even though the card/redemption was made in 2013 the card was NOT made (2 years later). I asked her if I could request a replacement and she told me I had to call back when 3 months since the date the card was entered into the system. I said if the card was not made, why do I have to wait 3 months for replacement? I was told that was their policy. So after 2 years of not being able to produce the card, Topps made me wait another two months. On 11/**/15 I spoke to Michael and he said I would have to wait till after 12/**/15 to request a replacement. On 01/**/16 I spoke to Eric and again was told the card was not made, and that Topps had NO intention of producing the card. I could now request a replacement. I agreed to start the process and was told I would hear back from Topps in a few days with the details of a replacement offer. On 01/*/16 I received an email from Eric from Topps stating that the replacement value of the card was $35 as well as "Once your agreement is sent, we will select a substitution card of equal-value, reflecting an athlete of the same sport. We unfortunately cannot guarantee any specific player, team, product or variation requests, though we certainly do try our best." I responded to the email stating I absolutely do not agree to the replacement! A Hall Of Famer autograph, patch, numbered /10, in a high end product that was a case hit???

This card is from 2013 and Topps has failed to produce it in 2.5+ years is unacceptable. In fact that valuation and Topps disregard to the replacement is far off, I am disgusted! I would like a supervisor to review the redemption again and call me in regards. I have worked many times with Topps to accept replacements (which in itself is unacceptable) and some have been good some bad but I never complained. I don't ask for the world but this is not even close. I would like to address this as soon and amicably as possible. If I don't hear back from

someone in the next few days I will assume its a mute point and will follow up with the Revdex.com. " On 01/**/16 I received an email from Eric at Topps " I sent your response to management; the price was reviewed to $60 by management. Please let us know if you would like to proceed with the replacement value at $60 or wait for the card." I responded "I appreciate your quick response. I will agree to a replacement for a 2015 Dynasty Mets player of Topps' choice (Piazza, Harvey, Wright, Degrom, Matz, Syndergaard, or Henderson) I believe a case hit, in a high end product, of an autographed patch of a Hall Of Famer numbered to 10 is fair compensation. This card is from 2013 and should be valued at release, not when Topps decides the card will not be made and you will replace it. If I buy a brand new car and the dealer doesn't deliver it for 3 years what is the value??? If this is a problem and management does not believe that it is fair, please get back to me ASAP. " On 01/**/16 I received an email from Eric at Topps stating "Per management our replacement policy guarantees a substitution card of equal-value, reflecting an athlete of the same sport. We unfortunately cannot guarantee any specific player, team, product or variation requests. We can only guarantee you another random baseball card valued at $60." I responded "I'm sorry but that is not acceptable. I'm not buying a pack and getting a random card. I have a redemption that Topps produced and promised to secure (sell sheet & checklist). I gave Topps the out by choosing numerous Mets players I would accept.

I wreck my car and the insurance company says they'll replace my car not with the car I wrecked, but a car with an equal value??? Again if this is not possible, please respond and let me know so I can follow up with a different venue." I again sent emails to Eric at Topps on 01/**/16 and 02/**/16 and received no response. I have to assume Topps is no longer communicating with me. Topps has a history of producing Redemption cards in their products many of which are high dollar cards that are the main chase cards (and selling point) for the product. Many of these cards that the product was sold and based on never get made and customers are stuck with replacements they neither want or have any value of what the original was. What if I went to a bank and borrowed money for years and when they wanted their money back I tell them Ill pay you 1/10th of what I borrowed and Ill give it back to you in apples? Absolutely unacceptable! I have been very patient and have spent many hours of my time calling, placed on hold, speaking to customer service and emailing. This should not be. You promised a card in which your own employees admitted will NOT be made. In fact Ozzie Smith autograph relic cards were made and inserted into their products since.Desired Settlement: I want a replacement card from baseball of my likening not Topps. I want to know what card I am getting in replacement BEFORE I agree to the replacement. I want the cards value to not only reflect the value at the highest point the card was worth since the product went live but also be compensated for all my time I had to put in chasing the redemption.

Response:

We try our best to have the cards completed but there might be circumstance that prevents the card being completed. At this time, all we can offer the consumer a substitution for current market value. The card due to the consumer has a current market value of $50-75. To complete the substitution, email [redacted] or call ###-###-####. We will work with the consumer to find a suitable equal current market value replacement.

[Your Answer Here]

I have tried this route as this is Topps standard answer, They always say just call us, I tried that 10 times with no luck, not falling for it again.When and if you are able to reach a customer service agent they cant do anything except say I will talk to a manager and get back to you. Managers are never available to speak directly. You cant even get a managers name "we are not allowed to give their name". The fact is that Topps has acknowledged they are NOT producing the card in which I have a redemption for. They are the ones breaking the contract with me. By inserting the redemption card in the product and selling it, they agreeing to fulfill that promise of the card. Now they want me to take substantially less for the card and not guarantee a sport or player? That's ludicrous. If I was to buy a car, order it, and wait for it to arrive, and then the dealer says sorry we are not producing that car anymore but well give you a car that costs less and of our choosing thank you??? Sorry business does not work that way. Either produce what is promised in a timely manner (time waiting for a card to be produced is like getting free interest) or allow a substitute of MY liking. I originally offered many possible replacements to make this problem end amicably. Now I want to know that my replacement is one that I will want/collect and for what the value of the card was when released.

Review: I purchased some packs of Topps 2012 baseball cards and was lucky enough to pull a redemption card. The card was for [redacted] and [redacted] Timeless Talent Duel Relic card. I redeemed it online back in August of 2012 and was told it would take 8 weeks. Well it has been over a year and during that time I have contact them numerous times and they have replied with they are backlogged. They even used Hurricane Sandy as an excuse. You can`t get through with telephone, an automated message will tell you you are the 10th caller with a 20 minute wait and a couple of minutes later it will tell you that you are the 30th caller with an hour wait, common, who are the fooling. My redemption card expires at midnight of January**, 2013 and my time is running outDesired Settlement: I want them to honor their redemption card. It is very hard to be lucky enouigh to pull a card like this and there is no reason for a company the size of Topps not to honor an agreement. I would like to recieve my card before the redemption expires.

Business

Response:

Thank you for taking the time to write with your question, and please accept our apologies for the extensive delays you have encountered while using our redemption service. The expiration date referred to in this complaint is a date for the scratch-off code itself. It in no way means the customer loses the rights to this card.

Review: I received a redemption card 2 years ago from a Topps Five Star baseball box. The card was from the year 2012 and was opened in February of 2013. This card was an 8 card autograph booklet that consists of Tony Gwynn, Frank Robinson, Ken Griffey Jr, Reggie Jackson, Hank Aaron, Willie Mays, Ricky Henderson, and Billy Williams. I have called Topps several times and have either been told to wait, left messages with no response back, or was transferred to another line where there was no pick up. I was even hung up on once. The last response I received, I was told that there was only two signatures needed to complete the card. I asked if he knew who was left and he stated," I have no idea, you should just wait it out." After this conversation, I received an email stating that I have contacted the company. It has been several months since that and I'm tired of not getting any answers. I would like this problem resolved as quick as possible. I would like to know if Tony Gwynn, who recently passed, has already signed this card, or what is Topps going to do if he hasn't.Desired Settlement: I would like the delivery of this card with all 8 signatures on it. If that is not possible,I would like a phone call and discuss what can be done for compensation of that card.

Response:

Topps is happy to substitute the card due to [redacted]. To complete the substitution, [redacted] can email [redacted] or call ###-###-####. We will work with [redacted] to find a suitable equal current market value replacement.

Review: Hello, I just wanted to let you know how my recent experience was with your baseball cards were. Well I love baseball cards and I buy them all the time. Well I recently purchased a box of cards and when I opened them they were all messed up and damaged, they had printing issues all over, I've never seen anything like it and I was missing my hit. I've tried to call in several times and emails and your customer service has never gotten back to me.Desired Settlement: Refund or replacement.

Please note that the policy of the Topps Company regarding the request for missing product items for all current year products requires that the consumer include the following items with their submission. Please go to [redacted] for full instructions

Review: I purchased several Topps redemption cards. 6 currently unredeemed totaling over $3,000.00/my cost. Which are cards they provide in packs which you scratch off a serial number, go to a Topps related redemption website ([redacted]) and redeem so you don't have to worry about high end cards being damaged in pack of baseball cards. Most high end redemption cards are sold on [redacted] to consumers by card dealers or consumers who mark them up based on demand. I paid $1,652.00 for one Manny Machado redemption card I've waiting for since July 2013. All redemption cards have an expiration date usually 3 yrs after release. My expirations aren't until July of 2016 which is ridiculous. I ve been in touch with Topps and a so called Manager named Sabrina and her assistant Remi. On more than 20 occasions over the last 2 years with false promises, telling the card was made but didn't make it thru quality control, or they are missing the patch for it (on one call), or still missing the signature on another call. I've been told by Sabrina about 6 times that it would only be 5-6 weeks and to be patient. Nothing ever comes. Topps will offer highly undervalued replacement cards as a replacement, but will not come close to satisfying the original order. No one should have to wait 2 plus years for a product. I don't think they plan to fill my orders either.Desired Settlement: I do not want replacements, just the 6 redemption cards I paid a hefty price for. In particular a 2013 Manny Machado Bowman Inception MLB Auto Logo Patch one of one valued at $1,500 plus. I paid $1,652 thru [redacted].

Review: I redeemed a 2013 Topps Finest Jumbo Auto 1993 All-Star Box Topper of Mike Trout #ed to 5 (redemption code - [redacted]). I called about the status of this card back in Nov 2014 and I was told that the card was damaged and would need to be replaced and I was given a value of $250 for the card.

I would not like to receive a replacement, but I have provided an invoice for the redemption where I paid $1,050 and the value was completely off base. Recently I contacted Topps customer service representatives and they have stated that the card has not been made and it doesn't appear that this card is going to be made anytime soon.

Mike Trout is a company spokesperson for Topps and signs cards for every product that they have and specific to Topps Finest product he has had the following autographs since 2013.

2014 Topps Finest Baseball

Finest Competitors Autographs Set Checklist - FC-MT Mike Trout, Angels

2015 Topps Finest Baseball

Finest Autographs Set Checklist - FA-MTT Mike Trout - Los Angeles Angels [redacted]Desired Settlement: I would like the card to be made and I am perfectly fine with accepting the card and a sticker autograph to be placed onto the card. Other cards from the set contain a sticker autograph and it does not matter to me whether it is sticker or on card autograph.

Business

Response:

Topps policy for substitution values are based on current fair market value, at the time a request is made for the substitution. We are not able to use a transaction from when the item was purchased by the consumer to apply the value for these cards, as the values are not current. If a specific card has no current sales, we review other cards from the same players which recently sold. This allows us to see the current market value of the player based on similar cards.The card due to the consumer was damaged and is being remade. The consumer can continue to wait for the card or have a substitution of the card for current market value.For a substitution, please contact Customer Service, ###-###-#### or [redacted].

Review: A few weeks ago, I redeemed the following redemption cards: 2012 Bowman Platinum Baseball Auto Prospect Refractor of Anthony Rendon $ 18.00 2012 Five Star Base Rookie Auto Patch Gold Robert Griffin II $ 300.00 2013 Bowman Inception Rookie Auto Gold Parallel of Manny Machado $ 50.00 Total $ 368.00 Topps sent me the following replacement cards. Values are supposed to be close to those of the redeemed cards. 2011 Bowman Chrome Mason Williams RC Auto $ 16.00 2012 Bowman Chrome Trevor Bauer RC Auto /500 $ 20.00 2012 Topps Inception Robert Griffin RC Auto /25 $ 160.00 Total $ 198.00 Please note that there is $170 in value between the redeemed cards and those I received today. Additionally, the Griffin has chipping on every edge and corner, which severely devalues the card. I could never receive fair value for the card in the condition it was sent to me in. Additionally, the Bauer and Williams cards were not on a list of 4-5 players I requested as redemptions. I am fine with that. However, between the difference in the values, and the Griffin's condition, I am completely dissatisfied. I have emailed Topps and have not heard back from them in a week.Desired Settlement: I would like the difference in value ($170) reimbursed through via another card. Really, this value should be more considering the damage on the Griffin replacement. I would absolutely not prefer a box of cards sent as a replacement. I redeemed cards. I expect cards in return. Thank you for your assistance in resolving this matter.

Business

Response:

Please see the below values for a breakdown of any discrepancies in the replacement cards that were sent. (Values are taken from Beckett media, a memorabilia and card grading/appraising/pricing company, which is how we determine fair replacement value). It appears that our replacements were unfortunately off by $45. We apologize for this issue. If this customer would like his Griffin III card replaced for claimed damages, it first has to go through our QA process to determine if the card is indeed outside of our standards. We make no guarantee that the card will be replaced if it is in fact inside of our company guidelines for card quality. He can mail back to the following address with a note. We will make up the $45 missed value with an additional card.

Review: I have purchased a box of 2008 Topps Chrome football cards from a third party website ([redacted]) that is simply a distributor for Topps, and many other, trading card companies. When I received the box of cards, I received a card that is known as a 'Redemption' which was expired. However, the box of cards GUARANTEES one rookie card autograph per box, and after visiting the website of Topps and emailing customer service, I was not responded to and was not helped. To me, this is unfair, as I spent money on a box expecting to receive a guaranteed card of this nature, and now I am left with nothing. This is especially frustrating because the card that I received a redemption for has been created, as I have seen it on [redacted] just to confirm that it is something that can be fulfilled. The reason that this whole things is frustrating is that [redacted], the direct competitor for Topps, has been known to honor these same types of cards for years after they expire, or will replace them if the card never was created. This is a black eye on Topps, and it's a well-known problem, and this has been the only way to ever get them to have any sort of fire under themselves so they'll do something about it, which to me is a, quite frankly, pathetic way to run a corporation.Desired Settlement: I would like my redemption card to be fulfilled or, in a WORST case scenario, to be replaced by something of the same value. It's the only thing that seems fair, considering it is what I paid for.

Business

Response:

As per Topps expired redemptions

policy unfortunately we do not honor fulfilling expired redemptions. This is due to the fact that Topps does

not keep any product after in inventory after one product year. The cards from previous years go into our vault, or are often times donated to institutions and charities.

We as a company would like to

make sure our customers are always satisfied with our products and do apologize

for any inconvenience this may have caused. We would like to extend assistance in the best way we can by sending the customer a an autographed card to account for the hit that could have been in the box purchased. so At your earliest convenience, please advise us of his correct mailing address information so we can

send out a package to him.

Review: In December of 2013 I purchased a box of topps 2013 NFL trading cards. On the box it says "complete set". Once we opened the box we realized that it was not a complete set. There are several duplicates and several cards missing. When I called the Topps company they put me on hold for 27 minutes. When I told them the problem they said write a letter and show the bar code of the product. I did what they asked. They then told me to file a complaint on email, which I then did. They responded with the give us a copy of UCP code (again) which I did. They then asked what cards were missing. I went through the entire set, and listed all the cards missing, and all the duplicates. They then would not respond after I asked them on several occasions how they were going to bring restitution. They have not responded in over a month, and in my last email written a couple of weeks ago, I exclaimed that if I didn't hear from them I would be turning them into the Revdex.com.Desired Settlement: I would like a complete set of 2013 NFL trading cards. It was a christmas present for my son, and he cannot understand how "Santa Claus" could make such a mistake.

Review: I ordered one hobby box of 2014 bowman baseball ($75). The box was spot on until I get to the end of opening all the packs to realize I did not receive an Bowman Chrome Autograph that is supposed to be in every box of this product.Desired Settlement: I would like topps to be contacted and for me to receive an autograph that is equal to or greater than the cost of one 2014 hobby box 2014 bowman baseball

Business

Response:

We are sorry that [redacted] did not receive his guaranteed autograph card in his box of cards. When we collate the cards in a product, we try our very best to make sure that mistakes like this do not happen - but, due to the size of our print runs, some boxes do of course miss guaranteed cards, on occasion. The autographs found in a particular box is at random, which is precisely the way in which we select autographed cards when replacing ones that were missed in a customer's purchase.

If [redacted] can respond to this thread with images of a sales receipt, as well as an image of the UPC barcode from the box, we will randomly select a Bowman autograph at once and ship immediately. We unfortunately cannot guarantee any specific value of the autograph selected, so will not be able to oblige [redacted]'s demands in that way.

Thank you.

Review: I paid 480$ about 5 months ago for a product of theres called 2012 five star football , the best card I hit out of that box was a redemption card for a [redacted] gold autograph . redemption means that they do not have the card made and it will be sent to you at a latter time. like an IOU for the card. so fast forward 5 months later , they tell me the card was never made and they will send a replacement card for it. I get in the mail a 2010 [redacted] autograph card thats worth about 20$ compared to the [redacted] auto that I was promised that sell for over 90$. which is an really unfair deal. they replaced a card from a 480$ product (5 star football) with a card from a 2010 product thats worh 60$. how is this fair? I called them and they pretty much said I was [redacted] out of luck and they would send me some packs of cards as a sorry. really? 3 1$ packs of cards are supposed to make me feel better? and even then , I never got there so called care package.Desired Settlement: id like a fair replacement for what I paid for. My [redacted] card is worth much more than a [redacted] auto card. especially being that my [redacted] is numbered to 25. this was not a suitable replacement. You can atleast replace the card with a card from the same product I opened. doesnt make sense to replace something I got in a 480$ product with something from a 60$ product.

Response:

Topps policy is to replace unfulfilled redemption cards with equal-value cards. We base this value off of the Beckett Price Guide, which assigns values to memorabilia, sports cards, etc. Please see below for the Beckett values of the cards in question. They are same value, as per our policy. We strongly urge the mediator of this complaint to look at these facts, thank you.

Review: Topps customer service is a mess. They use redemption cards as place holders till the card they make arrives. They state that it typically take 12-15 weeks for cards to arrive. Most times this is untrue. Since I filed a claim in 2013 topps has consistently put me last on a list to receive my cards. I feel this has been done in retaliation to me filing my 2013 claim. Earlier this year I had to fight with them cause they had been holding 13 redemptions for 3 months before shipping them. They claimed they were waiting to get a bunch before shipping. My current complaint is that 2 cards I have worth close to 2 grand. They have told me several times it would be a week or two. Last time they told me it would ship last week. Now I call them today since it wasn't shipped and they tell me [redacted] not past the dead line ship date of 8/* or 9/** I can't get a straight answer from them and I feel like this is retaliation.Desired Settlement: I want a firm ship date of when I can expect my items. I don't want to be lied to every time I call their customer service line. I don't want a different answer every time I call. I want to be treated fairly and not have my stuff completed and just sitting on their shelves as retaliation for previously filing a claim. I don't want my cards always being last delivered. Especially when I know I've redeemed mine before other people.

Yes I did finally get the cards. Yes the ones Topps sent where the ones I was talking about. But as I opened them I found they send me a damaged card. The [redacted] refractor auto /500 has a dimple in the card. So first they waits months to send it to me causing me to lose money on selling it and then they send me a damaged card with a manufactured defect causing me to lose even more money. If this doesn't show that they have bad intentions and doing this in in retaliation I don't know what is. This card is 500 if in good shape now I'll be lucky to get 1/2 that

Review: Have not received a redemption card from a product they sell that is over a year old. I don't think they plan on making the card. No reply to emails. No answer on calls to Customer Service.

Review: About a week ago I bought for my son this amazing pack of cards called "2014 TOPPS TRANSLUCENT FOOTBALL" from the site [redacted] now Instead of receiving a normal one, I received a box of cards with cards totally damaged and with printing issues that of course should not should be occurred. I already called in multiple times and emailed but their customer service never responds to me, and I have no idea what to do. this was my gift to my son birthday, and I don't have much money in my family, just wanted to make him happy - now I feel like I got scammed.Desired Settlement: I want to receive a normal cards if possible and if not so maybe refund.

Review: Hello,

I have been playing Topps Bunt regularly for awhile now, spending money and endless hours doing things to earn coins. I recently attempted to change my password and received an error stating "Sorry. Sign-in Validation Failed". I was unable to find anything at [redacted] - and an email was sent. Thankfully Topps got back really quickly with a ticket number ([redacted]). I had quite a few coins stored (slightly over 140,000 tokens) and besides concerned about losing tokens sad I am unable to play while my two brothers have been playing this afternoon. Frustrating.Desired Settlement: Request you help so I am able log-in properly and no longer seen the error, and I get the proper credits I had before this issue occurred, and any resulting in me missing a day or two b/c of this issue. Thank you sincerely for looking into this, it seems very small but I spend a lot of time on this.

Review: I purchased a case of 2013 Topps Five Star Baseball and in that case was a redemption for a 2013 Five Star Ken Griffey and Frank Thomas autograph patch booklet redemption. Mind you it was the only good thing out of the case but they would have to send it to me. It's been 3 years since I submitted the redemption to topps. I see people selling the 2014 one on [redacted] of the exact same card but they didn't make the 2013. Something is up with that. I have contacted topops over the years and they won't help me at all. The redemption sells for over $800 and topps said they would give me a $200 card. This is a fraud they just don't want to give me what I am entitled to. I want my card and 3 years to waiting with all this pain and suffering is unacceptable.Desired Settlement: To receive what I am entitled to.

Business

Response:

The item the consumer is referring to has been in his account for 18 months, on or around June **, 2014. The product has been in the market just under two years, streeted around March/April 2014.Since the consumer does not agree with the value of the item, he will have to wait for the card to be available to ship.

Consumer

Response:

Why should I have to wait even as long as they have even stated which is wrong. They have produced the 2014 version but not the 2013 version of the card. Seems like they are picking who they want to send the redemptionsame to. It should go in order. Not only that promise to get an item and then never get it, instead that fraud? I have never heard of anything besides topps that makes an item and then never gives it to you and makes you wait years. Makes no sense. Why not give me the 2014 version of the card or the money that is owed to me by refunding me the case value.

Review: Since the Revdex.com was the only way I got results last time I am forced to contact you a second time regarding the second Jamie Foxx autograph redemption card Topps needed to replace. Topps was unable to get Jamie Foxx to sign the cards (a card that has a Beckett value of $120) so this time they replaced it with a Dwight Gooden autograph card numbered to 50 that they specially made (due to their inability to deliver on their redemption cards they made a whole set to replace their cards like paying IOUs with money they printed themselves) so there is no Beckett value but similar Dwight Gooden cards have a Beckett value of $30. Every redemption card states that if the card is unable to be made it will be replaced with a card of similar value. I sent the Dwight Gooden card back with a letter stating a mistake was made and the card I redeemed was a $120. Instead of fixing their mistake Topps sent a boilerplate letter back, a Dwight Gooden autograph card now numbered to 99 (so they replaced the $30 card I sent back with a $25 card), and a $1.50 pack of cards. They need to realize they were unable to make the card promised and are doing no favors by replacing a promised product with custom cards. Since it is almost impossible to get through to someone in customer service over the phone I am looking for this complaint to open a line of communication with someone at Topps to work on either getting the Jamie Foxx card I redeemed in the first place or an acceptable replacement.Desired Settlement: I would like an e-mail from Topps to work on either getting the Jamie Foxx card I was due to receive or an acceptable replacement.

Consumer

Response:

At this time, my complaint, ID [redacted] regarding The Topps Company Inc. has been resolved.

I sent the card back to Topps a second time with a list of acceptable replacements and received an acceptable replacement.
