Can waiting time be so different?

Unread post by renef09 »

Hi everyone! Can someone tell me if waiting time can vary a lot? For example, I sent a photo, SAE, LOR, and money cash to Clint Eastwood on February and I still haven't received anything, and there has been a recent success from someone that sent a request to him last month! Any ideas or comments are greatly appreciated!

Absolutely! Waiting time can vary from all places. I know people who have sent their requests way long after me, and have gotten their autographs within a month, while I'm still waiting and waiting. Also take into consideration the amount of mail they receive; your request could be at the top of the pile, or as the requests keep coming in, it keeps on getting piled on and eventually goes down to the bottom.

And also, where you live is also a factor. Some letters take days, weeks, or months to arrive at the desired location (but you can also factor in if you shipped it, UPS, Priority, etc.)

Thanks! I live in Paraguay, I guess I'm getting a little anxious!
