I have dealt with both & they are both great to deal with. As stated with Nolan Ryan it can be up to 4-6 months before you get your items returned.
Bench is also good to work with. His son Bobby runs the website & will quickly return any e-mail questions that you send to him. Bench can also take a couple months to get your items back, it all depends on his travel / show appearances schedule. |

Wait... So it is confirmed Ryan's paid signings will continue after next month, there will just be a transition period? I was just about to post a fairly large stack (sets I've been working, sets I just started, sets I think I might start, etc.) If this is true I'll scale it back drastically.

This is what I was told, and I know these folks well. My personal approach is that I plan to send in my last two items that I want to get signed now, not wait. As mentioned, there will be a transition period before the new operation starts up. Mr. Ryan is 69 years old... |

But the big question is will the prices remain the same or will we see an increase once they start back up?

At 69, Mr. Ryan's health and his unknown ability to sign/prioritize signing may be a consideration in the future. I hate to think that way, but it's a reality. Mr. Ryan has always allowed his fans a way to get their items signed through the foundation at what IMHO is a genuine bargain. He's a pro, always laying down a quality, legible signature. The money benefits Alvin Community College. Compared to the current athletes, whose signatures are illegible at prices hovering around $100, it's a no-brainer.

Hey guys, for months I've been intending to send a card out to the Nolan Ryan Foundation for his sig but have kept putting it off. Thanks to this thread I will be getting one in the mail on Tuesday!
One question I have pertains to shipping: Do I really need to tack on $7 to the $35 autograph fee for return shipping??? Or can I just include an SASE? What has been your experience if you've sent items off to him? Thanks in advance for your thoughts! |

It appears he has a new site up and it looks like the prices have stayed the same. (At least for a card it is still $35.)
