No. I think that is kind of rude, considering they had the courtesy to AT LEAST SEND YOU SOMETHING. I mean, if anyone was going to chuck them, I'd gladly take them. They mean something to me still, but not as much as an authentic does.

I need to sort my PPs and APs into a different binder.

I REALLY don't like them, they're not exciting at all, but I don't throw them away. They just kind of sit there....

No I don't throw them away because, in my opinion at least I haven't spent ages wondering if I would receive anything. At least the celebrity (or the secretary) has had the decency to send me something.
Sal :D

That is true, which is why I do keep mine and I don't throw them away. I could never bring myself to throw them away...but they're just not as meaningful as an authentic you know?

I wouldn't keep them. I don't want fake or pp or secretarial autographs...I may kept some pps in envelopes but definitely not with my authentics.
For example,I sent a request to "Tom Hank's" address..the one on the database...and i asked and they said it's FINE and it works!
BUT LATER ON, i searched the forums and they say there is some kind of scandal in that one...no one told me anything about it...so i guess when i get an "autograph" one day, I'll just throw it away!

Just a Thought.

How do we know absolutely, if any TTM success is authentic. And when I post a "success" I try not to use the word AUTHENTIC.

Yes I'm pleased, for any success I get, and even the list of authentics, I made before, Im just not sure at all.

I surpose it's 50/50. And I would love to know that some of my stuff is authentic.

Can someone please tell us.

I'm sure that some of our TTM, are the real deal. Sorry for being so negative.

Haha thats ok :D, personally I'm happy with anything I get TTM. But like all people I prefer to get authentics (who doesn't :lol: ). If anyone has any unwanted PP's/AP's I'd be happy to send you postage money so you can send them to me, rather than waste them ;-) .
