I have been sending cards ttm for a long time... Im thinking of sending baseballs to a few players, I was just wondering what the best way to approach that was. Sending a box or a big padded envelope? Please give me some ideas thank you!
I send the ball in a small box. Inside include an adhesive label with your address and a return stamp (you can buy a stamp for $4.50 or whatever the postage amounts to). Some 'graphers prefer to send their own pen as well -- but there's no guarantee the recipient will use it. Nor is there a guarantee they'll sign on the sweet spot.I have been sending cards ttm for a long time...

What I've done is a small box to send and a bubble mailer for a SASE (usually put $2 of stamps).
Thanks. Do the sigs smudge at all ?
Hey, this may be a question that someone has asked already but i was wonder what is the best way to get rid of the gloss on cards so they are easier to be signed. Also, How many stamps are usually needed for sending to the player and how many are needed on the SASE? (I will be sending a standard evelope as the SASE and one card in a hard case and a 5x3 index card and all of that will be inside a 6x9 manila envelope)
thanks for the help!
I use an eraser all over the card, but is very common for people to use baby powder also.
It takes only one stamp for each envelope.
I've tried both in the past. The baby powder gives you that oh so fresh smell, but I think the eraser does a better job with slightly less mess.I use an eraser all over the card, but is very common for people to use baby powder also.

There is always a little risk when sending a baseball unless you are absolutely certain a player will autograph it for you. But then again, that's the fun of TTM autograph collecting. Some like to send a request (with a SASE) first to see if it's OK to send something of value.soo if i wanna send a baseball, do i just put it in a box or bubble mailer and they will sign and send it back? its that simple?
