Does your mailman bend your SASEs?

Unread post by indigo15 »

:( Mine does. My Blake Lewis autograph came back with a huge crease in it. I had to press it between a couple of encyclopedias for almost a day before it straightened out.

Yes, all of my photos are damaged in some ways. Now I'm collecting trading cards. But still, somehow they bent one of my trading card in half. Trading cards are about 2.5 x 3.5". It's that small and they still bend it in half. Hmm.

A lot of mine were getting damaged so I decided to write "PHOTO - PLEASE DO NOT BEND!" in marker on all of my SASEs and it has really helped. {thumb2}

Hi! ;)

My 8x10 and even 8x6 envelopes always get bend! :( Luckly, I almost immediately place my autograph in my file and the next day it looks better! :) My postman really annoys me...

Thanks,
Lizanne

Never comes back bent {thumb2} I write in big black marker on both sides PLEASE DO NOT BEND. I also don't use a home address, I use a rented postbox.

I always write on the envelope "Please do not bend" but sometimes it doesn´t help. One of my autographs I had to put between two heavy books, it was so bend! But I usually don´t have bigger envelopes than 6x4, so there´s no reason to bend them...

There's no need to write "Do Not Bend" on my envelopes. Mr Postman slips them under my garage if it's not big enough to fit through my letterbox

about 90% of the time mine don't get bent. Though every SFM (Studio Fan Mail) 8x10 photo I've gotten has been folded :mad: But it's a risk you take when doing TTM (Through-The-Mail) collecting. :neutral:

What gets me, is you write in big letters PLEASE DO NOT BEND, and they still do.

I think it is better, to write, PLEASE DO NOT BEND OR FOLD, but a lot of Postmen, are only bothered with forcing, your letter in whatever it takes. {down} :?
