Should I?

Hello!
I really want Benedict Cumberbatch to sign my Sherlock DVD. Should I send it to the address that his agent has given me? I'll take the discs out and I'll pay whatever for the postage. It's kind of precious to me tough. Would you do it? Is it worth the risk?
Thank you

(by the way, i'm kind of new here - so sorry if this is in the wrong category!)

Can it be easliy replaced if you never get it back? That's the question you should ask before sending an item out. The "rule of thumb" is this: Never send anything out that you can't afford to lose. Only you can assess the risk, not us.

a new DVD would be £15 - so I guess it is replacable...

it's worth a try, as long as your willing to take the chance of losing the cover

The agency address worked for me recently, I would be happy to risk it to him if it were mine.

As an aside, haven't heard back from Martin Freeman yet, after four months.
