    Has anyone done this (sending in the NPN entries) and gotten something back?
    Next MONTH? So he's saying that if he wins, the best-case scenario is that he'll be paying for it two weeks after the auction ends?

    Forget blocking him; find out where he lives and go punch him in the nuts. --WalterSobchak 9/12/12

    I have on occasion. Im starting to get more into it. I send around 5-8 last year and got back 2. Both were Bowman paralells serial # to /250 and one to /500. One common player one common RC. Ive read on BMB some have pulled some ok and some got lucky with some nice cards. Rare but its possible.

    I watched a thing on TV about NPN and they had Bins of mail. Pull a number and they grab that bin then they just grab a envelope. There was sooooo many. I try to send when product is new as my theory is when they get a bunch it would be too easy for the worker to toss a few instead of having to stack them all sideways in the Bins. I know if I was behind or wanted to go home early......

    Right now Im sending off 6. Write your return address legibly as NPN I won cut out my return address and used it to ship me my prize.

    Another thing is those Fleer contest cards. With the code. I rarely enter this junk as I fear spam. Well I entered one and won a hat. I dont get to choose the hat so likely I receive a non Dodger one but hey, its free. They give away 1,000 + hats so maybe no one is entering and everyones 1st try get s a hat ?

    Im going to start learning who signs and where to send and when and try a few TTM autos. When I was a kid I sent off over 20 and got back 2-3. But I send off cards at random and the players might of not even been active anymore. lol

    Im working on a letter to Bill Ripken with a auto request and a short Q/A and then sending a color pic of my 25 different 2005 Bowman Draft Russ Martin (Dodgers) and hopefully he'll sign it.

    Nothing like getting free stuff in the mail in 6 mo. once you forgot about it.

    I've had pretty good luck with NPN. When Fleer was still Fleer, not UD Fleer, I sent in a bunch of NPN's and one day got an envelope back with 6 or 7 cards in it including a McNabb jersey. I didn't get cards from the brands/sports I sent in for, but for free I can't complain. And last year I sent in a NPN on some of the $100 products and got back a couple of cards each numbered under 100.

    Upper Deck now has NPN on their website.

    Only enter for each brand 1x or you will be disqualified.

    Please excuse my ignorance, but do I send them a SASE? What else do I send? I have seen a lot of inserts before that said NPN but never really paid attention to them.

    A few years ago, I and some others would regularly post about NPN successes to a thread. I have still been submitting, but just haven't been posting.

    Within the past week, I picked up a Tarvaris Jackson jersey card from Leaf Rookies & Stars and a Lawrence Timmons #/599 rookie from Donruss Gridiron Gear.

    Some of my highlights over the years are a Franco Harris auto #/25, a Jim Palmer autographed jersey, an Anquan Boldin autographed pullout jumbo jersey swatch, a Ryan Shealy press plate (from Topps Pristine), a T205 buyback (Gabby Street), and an Alonzo Mourning autographed jersey #/25 (not to mention lots of jersey cards, #ed parallels and inserts, and #ed rookies).

    No SASE, unless it's mentioned.

    Usually just your name, address, daytime phone number and if a Canadian Resident you must answer the mathmatical skill question (to bypass Canadian gambling laws).

    I have rec'd about 5 cards back from entering NPN and have sent out about 20 requests. Two cards I have rec'd were creased, as they were in a bubble mailer not protected. All were common/RC, serial numbered or refractor parallels.
