Hi Holly, Check Autograph2007 PM's

Hi

Would be interested to know if you have had any sucess with email requests and if so which ones.

My wife and I are doing a celebrity photo auction on ebay for Breast Cancer Care. The auction will probably be in October to tie in with the wear it pink campaign.

Have just sent out the last batch of letters to celebs today which brings the total to around 200.

We have done this type of auction for a few years now and last year did one for Wateraid. If it helps I could supply a list of people who replied to us last year and also which went for the highest money in the auction.

I only came across fanbiz in the last couple of weeks and have been using a site that charges a subscription rate. This site is better as there is lots of feedback from people.

So far we have only tried celebs in the UK (where we live).
Hopefully we can keep in touch and help each other to raise money for our charities.

Alan

Thanks Logan,

I've written letters to all- I find it a politer and more reliable way to gain items.
