Wrestling Collectors?

Rupy you really seem to think these wrestlers are above anyone else. It's not being "owed". It's the fact someone takes the time to write a nice letter, ship the envelope and simply requests the person sign one item. If they don't that is certainly their right. The point is they certainly can do it. It takes no more than 20 seconds to sign and seal the envelope; when it takes well over 20 minutes to write, package, and ship to them.

Nobody is obligated to sign, but in the case of a guy who gets little to no fanmail and hasn't been part of the entertainment/wrestling world for decades, they really could sign. Or give a reason for not doing so; price list, not interested in that part of my career, ect.

It's better if he just never replies, than open it to look for money, then seal it and RTS.

If Robert Pattinson can sign I certainly think Ronnie Garvin has the time and ability.

* When I write to someone I write a sincere, decent length letter. It's not some form note or just a "Please sign this. Thanks!" IMO if they see that it's not some request looking to sell the stuff they should sign. Especially when it's someone who is long out of the spotlight, yet the person writing has a current interest and still remembers many points of their career.

I couldnt have said it any better myself bro

Is there a new address for Nattie ? I got a RTS a few months ago.

If so , can someone re-post the working address?

[Jericho]

I wrote to Norman Smiley at the FCW address on 9/12 and haven't heard back yet, so let me know if you hear anything. Jericho, did you use the salon address for Tito or the po box address?

I used the salon address, which is why I'm surprised I haven't gotten it back. But sometimes things get lost in delivery or whatever, so I'll try him again shortly.

I don't think any of these wrestlers are above anyone else. I just think they have the right to not sign.
Do I get frustrated when I don't hear back from someone? Sure. But, don't come on a message board and BLAST them.
Chalk it up as a loss.
I'm sure these guys will start signing again.
As for the looking for money comment, how do U know that's what they are doing?
If they are, maybe they REALLY need it. I don't know how much Ronnie Garvin made back in the day, but I'm sure he's not filthy rich.
Then you get the people who complain about receiving a price list. Why? Can't these guys make some money? As you said, they've LONG been out of the limelight. If they wanted to sign tons of autographs, I think they'd do some shows.
You know who I have a problem with charging? CURRENT STARS! They DON'T NEED the money.
But, I understand it. So, I don't bitch about it.

I'm not trying to pick a fight. Obviously, we all love this hobby and these wrestlers. I just don't understand the need to bash them.
If everybody you sent to signed, then what kind of hobby would it be? Nothing would be left to chance.

hey bro if Ronnie G would have sent me a price list I would of gladley sent back with a payment as long as it wasnt an outlandish price its the fact they just RTS it

[DeathBoyTheSick]

My only point on this whole situation is, I send EVERYBODY a nice fan letter, because afterall that is why I'm writing them.. I'm a fan. The people I write to, there's a reason I write to them and that is either I thoroughly enjoyed an angle, moment or just their career in general. I was a HUGE Jimmy & Ronnie Garvin fan, especially Jimmy and honestly if you go back and look I was the one who asked for Jimmy's address in the first place. I'm a little disappointed when they don't sign, yes.. but in all actuality, to me anyways, I LOVE the thrill of the hunt. Wait a while and send again is my basic motto. I also have to say though, Ronnie Garvin goes to the NWA Legends FanFest in Charlotte every year and asks people from time to time if they want his autograph, so you would think he would enjoy the fanmail. If he wanted or needed money, then send the price list. I don't down anybody for this, but keep it reasonable, because some of these guys are crazy on what they try to charge.

Rupy, blast them? So what do you think they are saying when they open the envelope look for cash then seal and RTS it? "Ohh what a nice guy for such a nice letter"??? RTS mind as well be a 4 letter word. It's their way of telling the person who sent to "F Off". They bast me I'll blast them right back.

You should search these wrestlers out and become their agents since you think so highly of them and feel they do no wrong.

[rupy017]

I never said they do no wrong. They COULD keep your stuff and not return it.
At least they send your stuff back. That's a plus. Right?
Could be worse.
