Default How do send balls out for TTM?
What would you suggest for sending a ball out for TTM? Padded envelope? I recently mailed Bart Starr a mini helmet with a priority box inside my original box, it seemed to work ok.

I put a ball in a plastic ziplock, pen, letter of request, sase with 5 stamps on it which is a 4x5 padded envelope in a 8.5x11 padded envelope with 6 stamps on it. Works like a charm as I have gotten some nice balls back.

Surprised no one has brought up www.startiger.com. You do have to pay but the success I've had from it is worth it. I've received thousands of letters back from guys, mostly the vintage guys and have never had to pay for them.

Are the addresses that much different than what is on Sports Cards Forum?

I have used Harvey Meiselman's address books and subscribe to Startiger for addresses. Harvey's books are pretty solid and very well organized. He also sends out e-mails of any changes in addresses, signing habits and deaths throughout the year. I also like Startiger. I haven't really explored too much beyond these 2, but I would recommend either one for TTM. If you are doing TTM's then Harvey's books are worth the investment. I use Startiger as a way to keep track of signing habits and fees also.

Default my 2 cents
I've used startiger for several years and have found lots of different addresses (sheer volume and players with one address on SCF and another on startiger)than those on SCF. That being said, my success has been better with startiger.
