Rookies are usually really good about signing. I haven't come across very many that don't.

Ok...so are you asking about sending requests to ANY player and asking if they can send you a signed rookie card of themselves, or are you asking about sending requests to ROOKIES and asking if they can send a signed card of themselves?

Either way, the principle flaw in your plan is the same. You're expecting the player to have something on hand to sign for you. Most players won't have anything on hand, and it's even less likely that they would have a stack of rookie cards laying around to sign.

When collecting sports autos TTM, your best bet is to always send a card to the player for them to sign.

Now, regarding the price of rookies...I don't see where you're coming from. $90??? Unless you're talking about getting some older players rookies, then I don't see where you get that figure.

Now, if you're talking about requests to current rookies, then the same thing holds true. Make sure you send them a card for them to sign. Don't expect them to have a stack of cards on hand to sign.

If you need any help on collecting sports autos TTM, feel free to PM me :D
