McGwire good with TTM?

McGwire good with TTM?

About 70% of the time. I sent to him with no success, but I have seen many success from him.

 

[brianga26]

I can't tell you when I sent the card if that tells you! HAHA. So I am not really sure

About 70% of the time. I sent to him with no success, but I have seen many success from him.

Actually McGwire is no where near that easy to get TTM, his success rate on SCN is only around 30% and almost all the recent returns have been from 2011 requests. I've sent to him the past 5-6 years during spring training with no luck but will be trying again this year!

 

[brianga26]

well I mailed him a 70 HR Cover page from the AJC (Paper in Atlanta). SO hopefully he will sign it too if he doesn't keep a database.

I like that Beloit card!

Thanks! Been ordering small lots of players from Sportlots to supplement my TTMs and been going for a lot of minor league/etc and oddball stuff lately.. I want to have different things than always the same sets/brands/teams

Plus I really like the rookie and pre-rookie stuff!

Got a return from Bernie Carbo today that was a '78 Topps and a religious custom both depicting Bernie in a Red Sox uniform. Return is nice but I'd like a Brewers card (I had sent a Miller Brewing) if anyone has one to trade for a Sawx let me know

I love it when they include their own cards, funny how all of them seem to be religious cards though.

Gotta add him to my TTM list and get me one of those lol

Also funny how every now and then you get back something different than what you sent. Only happened to me a couple times but figures they kept the one I wanted signed the most.. But I can't complain since they are doing me a favor and signing for free.
