I got really excited when they introduced the UFC Topps cards, and I have a number of those signed, and I've gotten nearly all of those back. However, they no longer sell UFC cards anywhere close to me, so if I start collecting I'll have to buy boxes online. A couple of questions:

First, if I'm gonna buy cards, what boxes have good looking cards, and/or have a lot in the box/, and/or is a good price. I have a small stack of cards I could go through, but not many, so I would like to get more (I don't want to spend a lot on postage for 8x10's, and I don't like having IC signed)

Second, who are some really good signers that are must haves? I know of a few by looking through this list, but I'm sure there are more. Don't feel like you need to provide an address, I can get that, I'd just like to know some of the best signers. Many thanks in advance!
As far as pure quantity, the Topps Moment of Truth set is the largest, at 220 different fighters/personalities. Sets pop up on ebay from time to time in the $15-$25 range. If you search some of the Facebook UFC trading card groups, "base cards" can be bought for fairly cheap. A lot of those guys buy cases of cards, only looking fro rare and autographed cards, and sell the base cards for dirt cheap. I have a box of about 3000 cards that were mostly obtained from guys looking to dump base cards for really cheap.

As far as who signs, guys that I would consider near guarantees when it come to TTM include Randy Couture, Mark Munoz, Daniel Cormier, Cain Velazquez, Clay Guida, Matt Brown, Matt Hughes (if you dontate to his charity), Jake Shields, Carlos Condit, Jon Fitch, DOnald Cerrone. Just to name a few.

I got back Chris Leben today. It took a month to get back. He also sent a really nice letter back as well.

Kinda of random to see a return from the Ultimate Fight School. I thought Leben closed that place. Was your letter postmarked from San Diego by chance? He had moved to California to 'start over' while his wifey was going to law school.

,I've no idea now. I threw the envelope away into the trash bro
I'm sure I heard his wife had given up the law school a few months ago and she was training to run her own confectionary store

does anyone else have an odd looking screen when they come to this site? It looks radically different to me when I view this page. I was not sure if the formatting on my computer did something or if the fanmail site is messed up.

Last 2-3 days, mine has had a different layout to it. I just assumed something was updated. Didn't really worry or give it much thought.
