The National Sports Collectors Convention is a mecca for sports memorabilia enthusiasts, a place where the rare and exclusive meet the passionate and dedicated. Amidst the bustling crowd of collectors, Panini stands out with its coveted Redemption/Trade program, a golden opportunity for attendees to exchange their non-expired redemptions for prized collectibles.
In 2024, Panini is introducing a new twist to the Redemption/Trade program by implementing an appointment-only system. This change aims to streamline the process, ensuring a seamless and efficient experience for both Panini and the attendees.
To participate in the Redemption/Trade program, collectors must first pre-register for an appointment slot. The pre-registration opened on July 2 at 10 am CT, marking the beginning of a race against time to secure a coveted spot. Walk-ups are not accommodated, making pre-registration a crucial step for anyone eager to take advantage of this exclusive opportunity.
The requirements for participation are straightforward but essential. Attendees must possess non-expired redemptions and hold a ticket that has been open for a minimum of 120 days. These criteria act as a filter, ensuring that serious collectors with legitimate claims get the chance to engage in the Redemption/Trade program.
Appointment slots are available on specific dates during the National Sports Collectors Convention:
– Wednesday, July 24, 2024: 60 slots
– Thursday, July 25, 2024: 92 slots
– Friday, July 26, 2024: 92 slots
– Saturday, July 27, 2024: 92 slots
– Sunday, July 28, 2024: 64 slots
With limited slots on each day, attendees must act fast to secure their preferred date. The process is first-come, first-served, adding an element of urgency to the pre-registration period. The Panini Events Page is the go-to destination for scheduling appointments, providing a user-friendly platform for collectors to claim their spot.
The window for registration closes on Monday, July 15, 2024, adding an extra layer of importance to the pre-registration process. Missing the deadline means missing out on the chance to engage with the Redemption/Trade program, a prospect that no serious collector would want to entertain.
The 2024 National Sports Collectors Convention promises to be an event to remember, with Panini’s Redemption/Trade program standing as a highlight for many attendees. By introducing the appointment-only system, Panini Customer Service is elevating the experience, ensuring that collectors can engage in a streamlined and efficient manner. Secure your spot, mark your calendars, and get ready for a memorable experience at the 2024 National Sports Collectors Convention.
