NRL TTM autograph successes.

Rekless · Feb 15, 2024

I’ve sent out a few TTM (through the mail) autograph requests lately to the clubs.

I’ll use this post to update my returns.

James Tedesco- 17 day return- signed 5/5 cards.

Stephen Crichton- 17 day return- signed 3/3 cards.

Hope I’ll have some successes and more to show soon.

Received back cards I sent to Joseph Tapine unsigned with a letter from the Raiders saying that don’t accept items for signing. It also said if I want an autograph to become a member and attend a fan day.

Ah well you win some you lose some.

Not great for remote and interstate fans

Today was a win, my daughter is a huge panthers and especially Nathan Cleary fan. I sent a few cards and a photo my daughter had taken with Cleary to the Panthers.

I received a package back from the Panthers with a note saying that players were unable to sign multiple items, but Nathan was happy to sign my daughters photo and that they added a few items for her.

In the package were 2x 2023 membership caps, 4x keyrings, 4x membership stickers, and a stationary pack and pencil case.

She’s over the moon.

Today brought a return from James Tamou.

He signed 5/5 cards that I sent- I received them back 24 days after sending them.

Every request I send out, I include a few questions for the player. Mr Tamou not only answered the questions but also wrote a thank you letter in return.

Incase you can’t read my chicken scratch writing the questions are-

Q. What is your greatest career achievement?
A. 300 Games in NRL and 2015 premiership

Q. Who was your toughest opponent?
A. Petero Civonecieva

Q. Who was the best player you played with?
A. Jonathon Thurston

Q. Best advice you’ve ever received?
A. Don’t waste time and energy on things you can’t control.

Q. If you could change one rule in the NRL what would it be?
A. Bring back shoulder charge.

James Tamou is a class act. Great to see him take the time to answer your questions!

Yeah, I love it when the players respond to the questions, it's a nice personal touch.

Was really awesome he sent me a personal letter in return.

He's playing with the Townsville Blackhawks this year in the QLD Cup.

Another fantastic return today.

Cameron Smith!!!

He signed 6/6 cards and answered my questions.

Sent- 18/01/24. Received 03/04/24

I’ll be sending the 2012 Select Showtime to Slater soon. I think it would be one of the top cards in my collection if I can manage it dual signed.

Thanks for looking.

Great pick ups! Glad to see you having some success!

I’m wondering how the recent postage increase will affect my returns. I have about 25 requests out all with $1.20 return postage on them.

Paul_Ambrey · Apr 9, 2024

I received some cards today with $1.20 stamps on them,but the cards were in envelopes. If you put the $1.20 stamps on small padded bags, you might have a problem. Good luck with your chase.

I only ever use envelopes when sending requests, found it lead to greater success. Fingers crossed they still arrive.

I’ve had some requests I’ve sent out take over a year to come back, guess that’s what makes the hobby so interesting.

A huge success today.

Mr Jonathon Thurston

Sent 18/01/24 - received 8/05/24

He signed 7/7 cards sent.

The retirement card would have to be my favourite.

Completely out of touch. The first sentence was enough. The second was almost akin to the finger.
