PP's and autopens

[Kiwiautogal]

I have been reading the successes posted on the forum and I have a question for any one that would like to answer.

When you receive a pp or autopen why do you class it as a success? Is it because you simply got something back?

I dont mean to upset anyone but I am curious as I do not see them to be successes in my opinion so I hope someone can share their opinion and shed some light on this for me.

Thanks

I agree with you. I think they should be listed as "other". I think the reason they are listed as a success is, like you said, because they have received something back. Also, some people cannot tell the different between a preprint/autopen and an authentic, and do not want to accept the reality that their autograph is not real.

Hi Kiwiautogal

PP's and AP's are classed as "successes" as the request someone sent out yielded a reply from a successful tested address.

The good thing about them is that they're a good source of comparison between authentic and AP/PP autographs. However, some members don't mind receiving them but others don't like them at all. It's up to you to decide what to do with them.

I don't look at them as successes because the celebrity that your a fan of never actually looked at the letter that you spent so much time writing.. I know its at least a reply..but I'm not that happy when I get them..that's just me though!
