Beckett Message Boards

HEy guys, I was jsut curious how many members on here do TTM? I'm really thinking of starting of doing it this summer, and after I get some more funds I'm hoping to possibly send out some 8x10s. For those of you who do do TTM I was curious as to who some of the really good signers are

sportscollectors.net the only TTM site you will ever need! HUGE database, with great user feedback. You actually know who you got a chance of getting back. Ive been using them for years. Here are some of my better returns.....more in my bucket.

You would prolly like this one too....

Alot of newer players sign too. Josh Hamilton is a big signer. Ive been doing ttms and fan packs for along time.

im considering starting ttms too do you send the cards in a toploader?

Younger players in the minors tend to sign often and so do retired players. I did TTM for awhile last year and then decided to pick it up again this year. I've gotten some decent returns this year so it's been fun. It's always a gamble if they'll sign but if you do your research you can keep your success rate pretty solid. Most current players sign during Spring Training but some also sign during the season. As someone stated before, Josh Hamilton signs and last year I got Hunter Pence mid-season.

If you want to send 8x10s you can find places online to print them out for decent prices.

I usually just ship the card in either a penny sleeve or nothing at all. Some players get so much mail that they sometimes sign without really looking at the item. I've seen toploaders and penny sleeves autographed while the card just stayed inside so it's up to you. It's just easier for the athlete if they don't have to pull the card out of the toploader, sign it and then put it back in...etc.

I used to do quite a bit...been busy the past few months, but I'm sure I'll resume this summer

LOVE the Cory Snyder! When I was 14 years old in 1987, I sent him an '87 Topps card to autograph. He signed it and sent a handsigned personal letter with it. Thought that was awesome. Back then, Beckett used to run an autograph feature (don't remember if it was monthly or every couple months) where people would share successes, etc.

I haven't been able to this year (at least yet) as with the new baby and job I've not had nearly as much time for my hobby but here are some I have got back the last few years
