All signings get paid upfront. In this case it was sent to the college where hes the baseball coach. I totally understand the school being closed for a few weeks during Christmas delaying things a bit then he called me saying the USPS Priority Mail box was too small for these 8x10s and the protective package they were sent in. So I told him to remove the protective envelope and just sit it in the bottom of the Priority box with some newspaper or other filler.
The reality is I had a min and it took months to get to that number which delayed this the most. Not sure if the price had something to do with that or there just werent as many collectors who needed him as I had hoped. I needed 3 set cards done, 2 that were multiple players so Im excited to get these back too.
