Hi! I took a little break and haven't been here in over a year but I thought I'd share the very few MMA autos that I have in my collection. :)

You're not being picky.
I would be let down too but yup, you got hooked-up and it is what it is.
Next time stuff a good marker in the velco of the wrist strap.

I always put my own Sharpie in the package when I send either a glove or a photo because I'm picky about wanting silver vs. black. I guess I was more let down by the "placement" of the signature than anything. I have about 6 or 7 signed gloves, and they all looked uniform, until Diego Sanchez broke it by signing upside down, and now Jones broke it even further by signing crooked. Like I said though, beggers can't be choosers, and he did me a solid by sending back period. I sent it right before the whole UFC 151 fiasco went down, so I figured I would never see it again.

Varner wants mail sent to Arizona Combat Sports.
525 S. McClintock Dr, #103 Tempe, AZ 85281
I did get him c/o The Lab before his Barboza fight but afterward thru twitter he said to mail to ACS.
Condit is still signing c/o PO Box in ABQ, NM.

I think the delay may have come when he changed management. Again, just a speculation, so don't rip my head off lol.
Flat out, Diego admits he's terrible at returning his fanmail.
He admitted so on twitter when someone asked to mail him at Jackson's.
He confirmed to mail it to Jackson's but said, "I'm not too good at returning it though."
If people send to his new management team (Insight Catch), it goes directly to him. I got my glove back within a week or so.
Got this reply today from Insight Catch after following up on my Rd4 set card ttm I sent 4 weeks ago:
"We no longer represent Diego, all mail has been forwarded to his address.
Michael Sanchez"

WOW! I apologize for leading you astray. He just signed with them less than three months ago, and already they don't represent him?! That is a shock to me. Again, I'm sorry for the loss of your card. I know Insight Catch was a "family business" so why they would cut ties is beyond me.

Oh no worries at all! Not your fault.
I sent to Insight before you posted your comments.
I had my chance in a previous ttm but the set card was lost some how between getting forwarded from his old management.
That's a shame! I'd def trade the 2 signed Finest cards that came back for that 1 set card that was lost from the ttm.

I just emailed Bruce Buffer and got a quick response. I told him how the plastic sleeve got moisture in it and rubbed the signature, and he replied back and said it'd be ok for me to send another. I'm putting it in a homemade cardboard sleeve this time!

Jug-- Great items you had signed. thanks for sharing them.

CJ -- The UFC gloves are tough. I don't care how they look in most instances. The open signing surface is small. Boxing gloves are much nicer for signatures.

I sent off to King Mo at AKA headquarters today and am hoping for the best. I know he is training for TNA and a possible fight in January so I don't know how it will go. This is the third time I sent out my FIGHT magazine cover to get signed.
