OuttaHere's TTM Success/Failures

[outtahere]

Thought I would start a post, if not for anything else but to remind me who I have out that are not listed in the TTM database. Mostly collecting Phillies from the 80's and 90's. Main goal is to get as many players from my old surviving collection signed. I have started a new collection, so I consider them unique. Here we go:

Success:
Tony Pena, c/o Yankees
Greg Gagne, home (both cards were dinged)
Jaun Samuel, c/o Orioles

Sent:
Von Hayes, c/o Barnstomers
Ronn Reynolds, home
Kent Tekulve, c/o Pirates
Roger Mason, c/o Beach Bums
Mike Maddux, c/o Rangers
Russ Springer, c/o Rays
Randy Lerch, home
Tim Mauser, home
Jeff Manto, home
Roger McDowell, c/o Braves
Carney Lansford, c/o Giants

welcome to the addictive hobby of collecting Phillies. I have done pretty much the same thing and have sent to many of the 80's and 90's Phils. There are many people that you have not hit yeat that are good TTMers. I welcome you to look around for some other threads to who us Phillies fans have sent to. I have a thread, and Druce has a few threads working on older players of the 60's and 70's/ GOod luck and I will keep in touch with this thread so I can see what you have had luck with.

Been pretty steady, but then again, I guess I've been targeting pretty good TTMers.

Success In Last Week:

Matt Williams
Jay Howell
Jim Sundberg
Alfredo Griffin
Tom Herr

Go Phillies! Remember, when the Yank's win, they throw the trophy in the pile and everyone wakes up and puts their ties back on and go to work at the market. When the Phil's win, the trophy parades down Broad street and everyone calls out of work and those who don't, only talk about Phil's memories the entire day. It's pretty much a big deal here. We don't expect it, we earn it. We don't buy players, we grow them. We don't charge $2500 for seats and don't fill them, we charge about $30 and sell out.

Outtahere thanks for sharing your collection with us. I would suggest taking another look at the TTMM as you can track what you personally send and get back right in the TTMM. When the TTM Database mainpage loads up, select the third line below the large logo. It will say MY TTM REPORTS PAGE. It will show you who you are waiting on if you entered them in as pending and who you have gotten back. I was not sure, if you know about that feature. You also can personally add any player that you do not see in the TTMM and the address that you sent to by selecting ADD A PLAYER from the left menu! Others can then later use the addresses that you did should they want to try to duplicate your successes. Great start to your collection and hopefully this post was helpful and I was not just telling you things you already knew.

Running out of Phillies cards that are in decent shape to send out. Gonna start trying to track down some early 80's late 70's Phillies cards. Been scouting eBay for lots, just not sure wanna go that route. Probally go after some of the more obscure ones. Gonna also be going after some former Flyers (Watson, Shultz, Barber) and current Eagles (Trent Cole, Buckhalter) soon also. Got alot of guys waiting in queue to go out for the upcoming MLB season (Jerry Reuss, Aaron Rowand). Also was going to send out to LT, but not sure if he's still TTM after run in with the law and probally send to Pepper Johnson before NFL season over.

Ill take a look and see what cards I have of Phillies. If so if you pay for postage they are yours (I probably have a couple 100- a few 1000- I have a TON of cards, but no promises I let my brother have free reign over my common boxes)

Don't waste your time with Dave Stewart in a Phils uniform. He won't sign it. I sent one to a gentleman on another forum who was taking it to a signing he was going to be at and he told him he won't sign anything from his time in Texas or Philadelphia.
