Players are usually willing to sign more than 1 card at signings like this. I attach the cards to a strip of cardboard that I lay down in front of the players. I can even have more than one player signing at once if people around me are taking a lot of time. I've found that signing a few cards like this takes less time than a player signing a ball or larger item. Also, I think they are ok with it because they know that if I was doing it for money, I'd be getting 16x20s or balls signed. There are some players that I don't do it for. I know that Pence doesn't like signing multiples, and he is a very good signer, so I don't want to annoy him. I'll only put one card in front of him, even if there is time for more.
Pence is already done with bats at the stadium. He always looks at you before or after he signs, so I assume he takes note of who is getting what signed. I'll probably get a nice 8x10 soon, but will stick to only cards.predatorkj said:17ROCKIES12 said:ignition said:How'd you get so many items signed?

You mark my words...in a few years Pence will be the worst signer ever. He has been taken advantage of far too long and I think that combined with the fact he is getting more savvy of the industry...it will make it bad. The dealers rape that dude. Pretty soon expect bats and other items as things he won't sign. He's already done away with inscriptions except for a select few people. Just try getting him to write "Bam Bam" on something.
He has a low ST rate, but I have seen a couple.dano7 said:I've sent to Pence the last three Spring Trainings with no luck.
Also, looking at your successes, I feel like I'm running behind. I'll have to wait for the Carolina League games to start to get off and running.

I would not recommend getting that Brett Wallace jersey signed. I stood in line at Winter Warm Up a few years ago, I stood there for about an hour when i got to the table he snatched the picture out of my hand grabbed a sharpie put B.W. and a line and that was the biggest waste of an 8x10 ive ever had. But it is your jersey so it is not my decision.gilbert said:January 16, 2011
