Should I send another request?

Unread post by Glowshow »

Im hoping for some advice...

A couple of weeks back I sent off an autograph request, complete with photo etc...I then discovered I got the zipcode wrong. I didnt put a return address on the envelope.

Basically I have no way of knowing if it reach the address...

Should I...

a) Send out a fresh request

b) Wait a few months then send out another request

c) Cross my fingers and hope it reached its destination.

you will get a RTS if you got it wrong you could send out another request but it is up to you weather to wait for it to come back or not, RTS can take months to get returned to you so i would send out another

He will not get an RTS because there is no return address. Id say send another anyways and cross your fingers that the first one reached as well. In the second one address that the address to you have sent maybe wrong and you are sorry that a letter has come again. Or something. You get my drift.

I would send out another request. From what I've heard, the post office pays more attention to the zip code than the city and state.

Thanks for the feedback...

So if I resend it, do you think I should mention the other letter, and say I think I got the address wrong?

I think that you should mention the other letter, just in case it did get to them so you can explain why they recieved two :)

Its a dilemma though...sending another request might reduce my chances of a reply if the first letter made it. It would seem odd to have 2 requests in succession. But as you say I can begin the letter with a line explaining it...

I got the first pic back signed the other day. I was delighted of course, but now I wish Ihadnt sent that second request. However, I did my best to cover that in my second letter. Really it shouldnt matter so much if I get a reply to the second letter now.
