Hey everybody! I am about to send my first email request and I just wanted to know what you guys did in this kind of situation? Like what do you write, the guidelines just say to send them your address but maybe its just me but doesn't that seem a little cold to just send your address and expect something in return? Anyways, any feedback will be greatly appreciated! Thanks! :mrgreen:

Dear DavidWright75,

basicly you write the same as you'd write down in a letter. Tell them that you are a huge fan of "xxx" and would appreciate it very much if they were so kind to send you a pre-printed photo.

Make sure to include your address in your e-mail and then you have to wait 4-6 weeks to receive the requested pre-print.

It may take a little longer if you are living outside the US, but usually you'll receive the pre-print within a 2 month period.

Best of luck,
Stephan

Hey DavidWright75 {up}

This may sound a little stupid, even though SFM only need your address I put something along the lines of:

Dear Sir/ Madam

I am a fan of (NAME) and thought they were great in (FILM NAME). I would appreciate it if you could send a SFM signed photo.

Best wishes,

(YOUR NAME)
(YOUR ADDRESS and don't forget to put the country you come from, if you live outside the U.S)

Even though they might not read this and go straight for your address, this to me lets the person know in a small way that you are actually a fan of them.

Hope this helps!

Paul :D
