[color=#000000][b]Hi thebucch, :D

I know exactly how you feel. It really does get annoying and frustrating! :x This has only happened a couple of times to me, which is lucky! {up} When this does happen, I just get the autograph and put it under my bed matress, then by about 2 days later, it will be completely straight with no creases! ;-)

I guess postman don't think "Oh its an autograph" I just think if you told them a celeb writes back to you, they'll probably just laugh. So they're careless with mail, they just think its some sort of bill or something! :cry: I hope this isn't the case. It just springs to mind :shock:

I'm sorry about that. I know how you feel. There really is nothing I can do, except be mad. My mailbox is very small and instead of sticking my envelopes in there, I stick a post-it note on it to tell them to leave any large envelopes on stairs. Some of them do listen and some, of course, don't.

I am so sorry to hear that. They can be [u]so[/u] careless at times. :x

My regular postman is usually fine, but recently with my Charmian Carr success, (one of my very favourites too) we had a different man come to deliver the post. And my photo now how has a crease up the left hand side because my postman clamped it under his arm instead of carrying it like a normal person. :? It's not too bad though luckily. And that was with cardboard.

Phoebe :D

So sorry to hear about that! {down}

I've had a couple bent in half before, even though it clearly said do not bend, can these peple not read? :?

All though having said that, some of them are very careful with the mail, luck of the draw really, our post person is always changing! 8)

Congrats on your success anyway! {up}

I stopped getting autographs sent to my house years ago. I opened up a PO Box at a local post office and my mail arrives just fine now. It's a little pricey just for autographs but well worth it.

My Mailman knows that i collect autograpahs so he is very careful with putting the autograph inside the mailbox. if my regular mailman is off, than most likely the photo will be bent.

I recommend using cardboard and a plastic sleeve. This will protect the photo from the elements and postman. I've done this with a few of my most wanted and they came back perfect. {thumb2}

Khackdrums :D

[b]Sorry about it being bent and wet {down}
You could report it to the post office and tell them it was an autograph and it said Do Not Bend on the envelope, yet the post man still bent it :neutral: [/b]

[quote="grobanite19"]Sorry :( You might want to put think cardboard in from now on, that way it can't be folded.[/quote]

So not true. I got a package from Autographworld the other day, anyone that ever bought from them knows they pack it well. autograph in plastic sleeve in between 2 (thick) pieces of cardboard; and it was still bend in half.

It's rare for me when it happens, and I don't think my mailman/lady does it.

I think I've gotten 4 back so far that were bend. Kristen Kreuk and Leah Remini (both send it without any protection), Jared Padalecki (photo mailer envelope) that one made me mad, but it's still an awesome signed picture. And then the aforementioned autographworld package.

Sorry :( You might want to put think cardboard in from now on, that way it can't be folded.
