I think it is very clear after a year and the introduction of the new AMBASSADOR design regime that there is not nor will there be a unique logo'd RA tag as we used to know. The difference now is very subtle and discrete but those who need to know can see the difference.

As I posted last year when they made the change and earlier in this thread: regular AMBASSADOR tags are a burnished, matt finish, RA tags are silvery and reflective.

It's just black thin cardboard that is used to hold the papers and luggage tag. The packaging is not worth keeping.

I just got my renewal in the mail last week and now see what you're all talking about versus the size of previous boxes. The referral certificate expires in Feb 2011 but is spelled Fabruary. Is this a European spelling that I've just never seen before or a typo? Sorry if this seems off topic. Thanks.
