I sent my Lost Sawyer auto redemption today... it says 4-6 weeks, but I doubt it given most people's experience with Inkworks. My Krum took a month from Artbox, and I can't see Inkwrks being less organised than Artbox. I mean, seriously. Is that even possible?  |

I sent in 14 cards on Jan 11 and got them back on Jan 20.
They sent them in a 50 card snap lid box with foam card spacer to fill it and then sent that in a small (200 card) white card box.

I sent all 3 of mine registered mail with insurance. I'm sure they will get there just fine, but I'm worried about the return. I had a card with $ in it get lost on the way to me this Christmas. :'(

Guys, to all of you who have had redemptions returned, how were they sent? I am just wondering. I thought I read on NSU that one person had theirs sent Fed Ex 2-day, which sounds like a pretty safe service, but I had also heard from someone else that theirs were sent standard un-insured post.
Can you guys enlighten me? I was nervous enough when my Airsure insured parcel took over 2 weeks to get to Inkworks never lo now.
I sent my redemptions in for LOST at the same time as my ones for GoF - so I am racing Artbox vs Inkworks, people I have spoken to put their name on Inkworks getting the redemptions back to me first, EVEN though their redemptions took a week longer to arrive at the company
The race has begun! Roz, They will probably be sent normal airmail to the U.K. I sent 8 Redemptions, and have just received them back via Global Priority. Dave. |

Eeps! Well thanks for letting me know. At least it should be small enough to come through the letter box - none of that faffing about going to pick up missed parcels  |

I don't have any of the autographed pieceworks, but I sent my Shannon and my Kate autograph redemptions in and they were returned via REGULAR mail. Both were sent in a padded envelope. Makes you kind of nervous!  |

I sent in 4 redemptions via Airsure from the UK. They took 6 days to get there arriving on Mon 9th Jan. I had them back by Friday the same week. Inkworks sent them back out the same day nicely packed and mailed in a Global priority envelope.

I just got all 3 of my LOST autos today! That was lightning fast!  They came securely wrapped in a bubble mailer and top loaders by UPS 2nd day air. I am so totally pleased with Inkworks!  I think everyone can relax about the shipping back to you. Inkworks has it covered. |

My last lot of redemptions were posted on the 20th Jan. This time they were sent back via DHL couriers. I had a card put through my door today, so I'll pick them up tomorrow.
The redemptions were 3 regular Lost auto's and one auto'd pieceworks plus a couple of X-files auto redemptions.
It would appear that the greater the value of your redemptions the more care is taken with returning your cards. My last lot came global priority and my Shannon auto just came in a bubble mailer regular air mail.

Mine arrived today!!! Very well packed, in the sleeve/top-loader/team-bag combo that I sent them in, then in a jiffy bag, and finally into a global priority envelope. The two week turn around was pretty good too given im in Aus. Piccys:     Its so pretty! |

Awesome!! I must say I do love the Josh Holloway Auto...the sig is really nice and the picture is even nicer! I think I prefer his plain auto to the auto pieceworks one, just because of the pic on the card.

Oooooooooh I can't wait for my Sawyer auto to arrive! And I like the Shannon auto as well, the thin sig is nicer than the thick one I've seen her use on her regular auto cards |

The Sawyer is a nice card, im very pleased. And yeah, the shannon auto on the pw is nicer...pity she had to write over her face, but at least its a full signature compared with the thick-pen ones.

My first set of redeemed cards have arrived too (beating Artbox despite the fact that according to RoyalMail.com Artbox had my redemptions in a full week ahead of Inkworks (ha ha it's strange discrepancy on the behalf of the post office there as I posted all the parcels out at the same time). Also by DHL but I would have been bankrupted if they had got lost in the post so I want to thank Inkworks for going to the trouble and expense of seeing that they got back to me safely... I want to email them to thank them but I also don't want to take up too much customer service time  lol although I suppose it's nice for them to get positive emails as well as moaning ones |

I want to email them to thank them but I also don't want to take up too much customer service time lol although I suppose it's nice for them to get positive emails as well as moaning ones Dear Inkworks customer services (my, aren't you lovely people) I would like to thank you for the superb turnaround time regarding my Lost autograph redemptions. The cards are superb! You did a brilliant job designing the cards and getting the actors to sign. Costumes - amazing! Auto-pieceworks cards - inspired! You are the best trading card company that I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with. I wish you could get the licences for all my favourite franchises! By the way, I hear that Artbox don't seem to want the Harry Potter franchise one. It appears that they have replaced their card design and ideas team with a bunch of trained monkeys. At least they have trained monkeys. Cost cutting meant that their internet site development IT officers were replaced by untrained monkeys. Who also work part time as the redemption filling staff. I know that you would do a better job, really I do! I am personally going to start a campaign for you to take over from them. Artbox, a clearly failing company. Inkworks, on the other hand, is heading for the stars! Your biggest, hugest and devoted fan for life, Roz PS. By the way, if you have any spare Scully auto-pieceworks from any old sets you need to get rid of, please forward them to me. Being such an ardent fan of your products, I'd hate them to go to waste. And it would help reduce the clutter around your offices. Anything to help! xxx |
