Hey. Just a quick question that I'm wondering if any of you have had the same experience. Everything I've mailed from Dec. 15/08 to Feb 9/09 (26 requests) I have received back so far with the exception of the four I mailed on Jan 5. It seems weird to me that everything else has come back except from the one day of Jan 5. They were Donald Dufresne, Alex Tanguay, Merlin Malinowski and Brian Skrudland c/o the business he works for. I'm not getting my hopes up for the Tanguay request since many current players take forever to sign if they choose to do so but the others I have seen requests for in the past. Just seems weird to me that I haven't gotten any of these back. I have a feeling the Canada Post has lost my requests for this day.

Anyone else have something similar happen to them?

Thanks

Mark

one time i had some letters forwarded to me because i was away from home for awhile and i waited for weeks they never showed up :( i had no idea which players they were from and hence have no idea which autos i lost in the process.

Don't feel too bad, in roughly 2 and a half months I have mailed out 19 letters and only had responses to 6 of them. I don't think Canada Post likes me. They love to lose insured packages that I mail out with hundreds of dollars of old baseball cards and after 2 months, they finally get to where they are suppose to go. This seems to happen a lot when I mail stuff out to California...

I have many envelopes out and although I know not to expect them all back, I have maybe had 3 or 4 in the past 2 weeks. It seems as if things are either very slow or...

Donald Dufresne took forever to get back to me when I sent to him, and if you sent to Skrudland c/o Argo Sales, I think I heard he wasn't there anymore, so, I don't know what else to say.

Looking over my past sendouts, I haven't had any that were 0%, but I have an 11/30 day from January 2008...

I have over 100 out right now, including quite a few still from 2007 for guys I thought would be pretty good signers. Then again, you see some that are out for 4 or 5 years before they come back, so we may get lucky!
