Posting and advice?

[Mr Gee]

I bought the whole 4 seasons of Prison Break last year and was wondering whether or not to send the outer box it came in to get it signed.



That is what It looks like and I have no idea what the hell am doing, LOL! Yes I have read around but it seems very puzzling for my little brain I'm a big fan of him ever since he released the show and just want this to go with my DVD's so I can tease my sister.


If anyone has any information on what I should do or what I shouldn't do, it would be greatly appreciated.

If the outer box will break down and lay flat I would say - yes, go ahead and mail it. If it ruins the outer box by doing so then I would not recommend it, and if that is the case do the individual dvd's have the sleeves that you can send instead?

I would'nt- that cover will be a nightmare to see a signature on if they sign in black

It would be almost impossible to keep the box safe during transit so I would advise against it.

Also... him? Him who? Miller?

Well, unless they're willing to put it in a solid box and pay to ship it as a package, but that's not really worth it

Yes it does break down quiet small as well, Sleeves are a nice idea as well

Surely he'd have different colour pens, right? ;)

It like a bit of cardboard, I think it'd be quiet safe in a normal envelope. Yeah Mr Wentworth Miller.

I think he meant it would get bent.

Just ask them in your letter to sign in a different colour.

I'd send the DVD sleeves myself. A box is just a bit harder to semd really.

Best of luck

Yeah, I would send the sleeves. Whilst I think he signs in silver regually, I don't think you can bank on it. I personally don't like autos in silver as they tend to smudge more easily.

I'm sure they have silver sharpies on hand. (That's a whole 'nother topic by the way.) They might even have a silver paint pen handy if you send to the agency. I would think they would know to use the appropriate marker for dark surfaces, but I suppose it wouldn't hurt to either ask or just send one along with your item.

Here's an idea, though. If you have a scanner you could scan the DVD cover and get a picture printed out. Then send out the picture and get that signed. If you don't have a scanner, most libraries have them for public use.

It wouldn't have to be sent as a box? I have quite a few cardboard boxes that DVD boxsets come in and they dont flatten down in anyway.
