Hi:
I will put my two cents in on this one.
I also had a sucess with Wade without making a donation to "All Children's Hospital" of Tampa,FL.
However, It took 4 months to receive my item returned signed.
I saw like everyone that some made a donation to one of Wade's favorite charities and received a fast response. The donation was $10 per item. I personally am quite blessed to have the job I have and I donated $20 per item. I got mine back in 7 days. He has signed for as little as $5.
The point is that Wade seems pretty comfortable signing throught the mail and I get the impression that making a donation, when you can, has helped. Wade Boggs is fan friendly and be appreciative when possible.
I don't see many players that are new HOFers taking the time to respond to fan mail, much less for a reasonable donation.
