Can you guys please help with a question?

[slj1216]

Hey, I wanted to send some photos to several different NBA players. My question to you is, how do i send and receive the photo without it getting bent. Can i send it in 8x10 top loader? Will they take it out to sign and put it back in?
Can anyone who has sent 8x10's please let me know. Should i just send it in the envelope and write do not bend on the envelope?

Thank you in advance.

I would put definitely put do not bend on the envelope. As for the top loader that is your choice, it is a risk. I have seen some cases where someone sent a toploader with their cards and they received their toploader signed instead of their card. So basically it is up to you, good luck.

toploader and do not bend

the top loader can smudge a pen expecially when stuffed back in a jurry. I usually take two pieces of cardboard and sandwich the photo. I have had about 10 come back and most were in great shape. It gives the envelope a bit of ridgidity and also write do not machine. My mail guy said that for a few more cents (like 20-30) you can write do not machine which means it does not go thru the machinery as much as a reg. letter.

Take a moment at the post office and ask. Take your stuff with you and they are sometimes fery helpful

good luck

i also use cardboard. i've had over 50 8x10's signed and returned and only maybe 1 or 2 came back with a bend (not noticable in a frame). i've seen way too many times where they will sign the top loader and not the photo/card
