Pre-prints and buying autographs
Posted: Tue May 21, 2013 9:42 pm
I wanted to just get everyone's opinion on a few things.
#1 - Pre-Prints. Why are people excited to get pre-prints? Just because someting is better than nothing? I do agree with that I suppose, but I just wouldn't want to add a pre-print to my autograph collection. I have just noticed that some people put a pre-print as a success on here and in my mind, it's not really. Thought?
#2 - On the subject of buying autographs what do you guys thing? For instance, I am a huge fan of Star Trek so I wanted to send to Nichelle Nichols. Well, she doesn't sign TTM but you can order a photo from her website and she'll sign it and mail it to you for like $30. My significant other told me "that's cheating! You can't buy autographs, it defeats the purpose!". LOL. I understand where he's coming from, but at the same time if that's the only way to obtain a signature that you really want....well.....I wouldn't have a problem paying for one!
