Doris Day won't sign my lobbycard unless I donate $150

Sometimes, that's the luck of the draw. Somebody can get a positive response in five days, others in five weeks, still others not at all.

Never send stuff that you can't afford to or don't want to lose. It's not a guarantee, but it may help to send a letter of inquiry along with a SASE, e.g., "I'm an admirer of your work. Could I send you a photo to get signed?" If they say, then send it. But again, it's not a guarantee, but it increases the chance for a success.

Well so far I have not received anything back. I told her to just send out one of her own pictures like the foundation staff person said she would do for me after my donation but so far nada...
I guess I'm just in bad luck as probably 20% of the autograph requests I have sent out (to people who have positive feedback from other people on this forum) are not getting back to me with any autographs. I have lost quite a few lobby cards and postage so far. Emilio Estevez, Kurt Russell, Matthew Broderick, Heather Langenkamp, and several more.
A RTS I can put up with, but it **** me off when the letter is delivered and I hear nothing back, yet they are sending stuff back to others since I read the feedback on here before i send it out. THe above listed ones are 5+ months ago since I sent to and even though I know some people didnt get any response until like a year later, most of the ones that didnt reply to me have returned autographs in 2-3 months or less to others. Oh well sorry for the rant.

Lol you have to be patient it might take a year maby longer sometimes just because its not back in a few weeks or months doesn't mean its not coming at all even if others get there's back fast its just luck of the draw on who's letter they pick out of the massive pile lol
