Seriously, all I did was point out you could have saved yourself some money by printing one yourself. You could even have chosen the image. But hey, apparently that's not allowed these days.

I can understand you, but I've never felt that " if you believe its real its real " or " pps are awesome ",
I know it is a lie, I just hope that people with similar interests can be friendly to each other.

Seriously? This is STILL going on?

I'll tell you how I would feel. **** off. Even more so if I lived abroad and had spent more on postage. But then, I tend to do my research and it's well known that Dan sends PPs. Anyway, if the OP is happy, fine, but I reserve the right to advise members to save their money and print a PP themselves.

People have different opinions on this matter, and thats fair enough, sometimes though I wish people could keep their opinions to themselves. The person who received the PP knew it was a preprint..at least they weren't claiming it to be real when it clearly isn't.
Congrats on the SUCCESS
Don't let some rude little people ruin the fun for you.
Thats another point, Autograph collecting should be fun :/ I don't see why people have to be so rude a lot of the time. You're among people who share the same hobby as you, sure, some may be newbies at it and not know much about it, but even so...

For me this is not a success for the two reasons pointed out...

1... It's not a signature, and it's something you could print yourself
2... It's nothing to do with Dan, the letter didn't get to him, he didn't see it, and most likely a work experience kid put the photo in the SASE

I understand in the cases where no one knows if a PP will come back that a chance is taken, but I honestly don't see why people waste money sending to someone they know will 100% send one back. If you're playing the "fanmail" angle, then fine it's a response, but the purpose of fanmail is that the letter gets to the person you're writing to. We all know these don't. As Dan signs VV, it's a mystery to me why anyone uses the ARG address.

Looks like the whole item is heavily damaged in transit, but it will be on photo paper, all Dan's PPs are.
