As I told james_bond_fan we DO NOT tell any actors that they cannot sign, there are plenty of them that have joined us and still sign through the post so it has not "got out of hand" at all.
As to why Jan said "she wasn't allowed to sign" I have no idea, we've certainly not told her that and would never tell any of the people we represent the same. If she does not want to sign then it is her choice, not ours.
As I've said countless times before, people take advantage, they send 6 or 7 pics to be signed and then they end up on eBay or with other dealers who charge an extortionate amount. Why should they still sign and not reap any benefits?
I also suggest in future you do not post actors personal addresses on discussion boards, these people deserve as much privacy as you or I so please respect that.
I agree with bondstars that people who send many items to be signed are ruining autograph collecting. When actors & actresses see many of their items ending up on ebay or shops it must put them off signing for their fans. I have only ever sent one item to be signed and I am very happy with that.
Bondstars.com is a great website and when I save up a bit more money I am going to buy a Martine Beswicke autograph from there as they are fair priced and great quality. But most importantly of all they are 100% authentic unlike a lot of the items you get on ebay.
I concur with Bondstars. When I used to send requests through the post I would always send just one photo and provided a SASE for them to return it in, this is the least you can do, since you are asking them to sign.
Bondstars are cheaply priced as they have direct access to their artists, and I can see that the exchange rate can make it expensive for American visitors. However for us British who are going on holiday to America in a couple of weeks the exchange rate is good
I don't think Valerie signs through the post either, you can buy very reasonable pics on her lovely new website www.valerieleon.com (that's a surprise!)
Quoting JimboJones:
Hi, got my letter back today from Valerie Leon
I wrote to this address:
Valerie Leon
c/o Essanay Ltd.
2 Conduit Str.
London. W1R 9TG
Has anybody a functioning one?
Jimmy
I used this address only a month or so back and she signed my phto - she must have stopped signing or only signs very few !!
Sorry if there has been a misunderstanding but i didn't include millions of photos, i included 1 index card and an SASE, i am sure she signed at one stage and it just seemed strange that she said she 'wasn't allowed'!! I agree with you 100% that sendind loads of photos and expecting the stars to sign is not fair !
I am sure dalton5 would love to buy your photo as he is a great fan of timothy !! Although i have a feeling that your payment may get lost due to the Royal Mail bad service !! HAHA
Hi,
Does anybody know of a working address for shirley bassey, i really would like to write to her!!! I really dont want to trust the one dalton5 gave me, probably come back RTS !! Sorry dalton5 but its the truth and you know it !!
Alright guys enough arguments, eventhough i am quite angry with dalton5 (so are most people) we dont want to get this topic closed.
i think dalton5 has had just about enough ridiculing
it wasnt you who he tried to con into a trade and told me that it had got lost beacuse of royal mail TWICE, anyway i agree, lets be civilized now !!!!!!
Seems like a total admittance that you were just winding people up and had no intention of trading or paying, to me that accounts to fraud and something which is considered a rather serious offense these days.
It is a shame there are some people who spoil autograph collecting. The majority of people who collect & trade autographs are honest people. It is just a shame that if you have an encounter with one bad person and it makes you very waery of trading again.
I have tried trading addresses with some members and they refuse to trade as they have been put off by bad experiences. I hope these people will trade with me soon as I am an honest person!
On a lighter note I got Claire Goose's autograph today, a small ISP.
I'm also a 007 autograph collector (my hobby) and I'm looking for some addresses that for me were RTS. Does anyone have these that are recent and tested?
I'm looking for:
-Alf Joint
-Gottfried John
-Shane Rimmer
-John Moreno
Thanks!!!
Phil
Already posted a question in general regarding the actor who played Necros (Andreas Wisniewski) from the Living Daylights. Last seen in Die Hard with Bruce Willis. Does anybody have an address where i can write for his autograph and obtain current information about him. Or if anybody knows what he is up to these days?? Had no luck searching the net. He seems to have disappeared completely? Cheers!
