Riggs TTM Thread

[Riggs]

new forum seems alittle buggy & slow for now. sure its still being worked on. Trying to reply with quotes but doesn't seem to want to cooperate right now

Thanks for the comments everyone.. @Jdiz58To answer your question, It cost me from IOWA $2.63 there & $2.63 back. Thats in bubble mailers. One big one to hold the ball, letter & smaller size Bubble mailer for the SASE.

4 returns today... 2 successes, 1 RTS & 1 unsigned..

Unsigned came from Tom Heinsohn. I cant figure this dude out. Seen a hamdful of successes & i'll fire one out & then my get returned unsigned. Maybe he wants money or maybe he doesnt like my card.

RTS came from Joe Montana. Tried him in the address list indymike posted. worth a shot.

Joe Caldwell 2/2, out 6-25, back 7-3. Nice return from a 2x all star & gold medal winner in Tokyo in 64. Very pleased.

Brad peacock 2/2, out 6-11, back 7-3. need to thank tigsfan For the heads up on this one. was going to send via the A's, but was told to send to the rivercats. Saved me some stamps for sure. Member looking out for another member here. Thanks again.

Hope everyone's 4th was great.. I got 7 returns today..

First the baseball..

Claude Osteen 3/3, out 6-4, back 7-5. Very happy with this return. Mr Osteen has a very nice signature. also took the time to add "3X ALL STAR, 65 W.S. CHAMP" as requested.

Dick Green 2/2, out 6-8, back 7-5. great return from a 3x world series champ. thrilled with this return.

Heath Bell 2/2, out 2-20, back 7-5. WOW, Longer wait then expected for him. signed in his regular red sharpie. glad to see this again.



Now football..

Brian Kelley 3/3, out 6-26, back 7-5. Nice return from a CFHOFer. took the time to add that inscription as requested to one.

JJ Watt 2/2, out 6-8, back 7-5. Love the way this guy plays. even though he plays for the enemy. Guys an animal on the field & im sure he will have field days against the colts again this year.

Jim Mutscheller 2/2, out 6-26, back 7-5. great addition to the COLTS PC collection. added "BALTIMORE COLTS, 2 TIME WORLD CHAMPION" to one. got a little smudged but still ledge-able.

also forgot, this came in the mail today... NOT A TTM!

Bryce Harper ROMLB with PSA certified. What do you guys think of it? I jumped on the kids hype & had to get one. Really hoping he would make the all-star team this year but appears the only way he will get in is with an injury to someone else. Glad to add him to the ball collection.

Sweet Harper! Is that what you told me was your surprise eBay win? Awesome pick-up!

ya.. Its not really a "Big" surprise by no means. Think i was just excited about it when we was chatting, & maybe i was thrilled more with the price lol

Haha well I think it's awesome! Part of me still wants a Harper auto for my collection, but I'm too cheap to buy one. And I'm still mad he got called a week before I was going to see him in Columbus.

[buffalobills]

they just keep coming...and coming in for you! must be nice, lol those Dick Greens look real nice i think thats probably who i will send my b 72 A's ball to next.

[REDANDGOLDPRIDE]

Nice Watt. I've sent to him twice now, hopefully he comes through haha

Thanks... Thats ind of the way i felt with the "Part of me still wants a Harper auto for my collection", More i look at it, more im starting to like it & i remember you taking about getting him in Columbus. That would have been mad also.. That would have been a perfect time.

they just keep coming...and coming in for you! must be nice, lol those Dick Greens look real nice i think thats probably who i will send my b 72 A's ball to next.

I actually thought about you when i got that return & wondered if you had him on your team ball yet. After looking at your ball & other returns, There are a ton great signers from the 3 peat A's. Im going to send to John Blue Moon Odom next.

Nice Watt. I've sent to him twice now, hopefully he comes through haha

Thanks man.. I hope he does also.. Kinda surprised you havent gotten one back yet? Appears to have 2 for sure, but possibly 3 valid addresses. Hope he comes through for ya.

Time to play a bit of catch up...

Fridays returns..

Jeff Kinney 2/2, out 6-27, back 7-6. Nice return from a 2x national champ. Wasnt thrilled with the card choice & knew they might be a bit to dark but... Not alot of options for him out there. Think this is the only card they made of him.

Jerry Norton 2/2, out 6-26, back 7-6. Thrilled with this one. took the time to add "5X PRO BOWL" to one as requested. Turned out nice.



Saturday..

Mike Lieberthal 3/3, out 6-25, back 7-7. Had these cards sitting in my send out stack for sometime. finally got to them. Nice autograph

[clryan5]

nice looking JJ Watt cards!! I'm thinking of buying some cards for him! I've gotten him on around 6 8x10s, 5 4x6s, and a football (I included a donation for the football). He seems to be the only Texan that does TTM :(
