That's killer you got Igawa to sign, but also proof that sending Chrome cards is not always the best idea -

If every player signed with a nice permanent marker it would be fine - You would be surprised how many players will actually sign with an old dried up ballpoint - I try to send a cardboard based Topps or UD base card - nothing fancy -

that's actually one of the reasons that I like the 1952 Topps and Allen and Ginter designs - they LOOK cool and are on basic enough stock that Any autograph enhances the look for the card -

Great that you got success so quickly, keep us posted on the rest of your success!

I hear Phil Hughes is charging now. I know after he was back at Scranton last year on rehab he would not sign. This was a complete 180 from him earlier in the year. I sent to him last season in August and still have not heard anything back. I hope you get lucky though.

i just got back 2 Brandon Morrow, took 14 days seattle to arizona, so you can adjust time in accordance with where you live in the country - good luck! if De Aza signs i might send my gold refractor (#/50) of him to get signed - i don't think it's worth much right now lol)

Thanks for the advice ambrosia. I am hoping for a return soon. I am having a dry week.

yeah i got 2 on monday and nothing since then - i think it's since the rest of the players got there last week and they have been working extra hard for the spring training games starting today - they should have more free time soon -

and if your brandon morrow doesn't work, let me know, i might be able to trade for one of your doubles -

thanks!
