Anyone got any thoughts on this, or successes/failures with the sports players involved? (whether it be IP or TTM)

I recieved a very nice personalized signed picture from Maria Sharapova, with just sending a letter {up} so according to me she should definitely not be on the worst list.

and I agree with Manu80, beckham shouldn't be at the best list, at least not TTM. I don't know about IP though :wink: .. anyway, I would really like to meet him, he's one of my favourites :mrgreen:

Favourite Successes TTM: Cristiano Ronaldo, Wentworth Miller, Wayne Rooney (signed

Most Wanted TTM: Eric Cantona, David Beckham & Fernando Torres

The list is hard to use as it mixes many sports together.

Beckham, when he was at Man U, sent authentic & dedicated signed promos, but his signing habits went downhill after his move to Madrid.

There are many great signers, but you ewould have to split the list into different sports.

I would not have put Tony Hawk on the best list.
I was under the impression that Tony Hawk did not sign TTM anymore, and directed requests to his website where you can download a signed piccie.

Does anyone have any different information?

Best wishes

Perhaps the lists include just replies - in a sense of PP, Autopen, Secretarial as well as real?

It really is too hard to classify, as as an example, most Premiership Footballers (soccer) sign within a couple of months, in my experience, with the exception of a couple such as Rooney, who sends out stamps, and Shevchenko, who I am still waiting for after about 10 months! (although another user has had a real ttm success).

Im not really in a position to comment on American sports stars such as LeBron James and Shaq, as I have never received a success ttm from an American superstar during my time collecting - Ive been waiting over 18 months for Carmelo Anthony and LeBron James!
