I have not received the Mark Hamill personalized photo, I too submitted my mailing address and received a short email saying they were processing them. I have UPS alerts pushed to my phone and have received no alert for a new package. Will keep this thread updated.

The envelope didn’t appear in my Informed Delivery email yesterday. It just arrived in my mailbox.

Once they realised their mistake they automatically refunded, and graciously sent the photo instead for free.

Correct.

Now I just need a way to get a free Ford and I’ll have the big 3 autos haha.

Maybe he’ll write and sign a kids book about becoming a pilot?

I got my Mark Hamill auto today! Zero protection in a manilla envelope with some stamps on it.

Auto is personalized to me. Same photo as the other one posted in this thread, but mark signed on the right side instead of left on mine.

I'm working now. I'll post a pic later

Appreciate the initial tip-off. If I remember correctly, from what I could make out at the time about 16 people got in before they closed it off. A handful of those were definitely from your post.

It's putting a big smile on my face, love seeing it pay off for those who jumped on it. We have a pretty strong core of collectors on this thread and that's really what a forum like this should be about.

Well of course timing would be most likely Hamill auto comes in the mail today I’m hoping, but my son decided to come two weeks early so we’re at the hospital thru tomorrow

Funny coincidence we chose the name Nathan which I saw is also Marks sons name.

I’m unable to run home bc the wife tested positive (possibly false) for COVID so we’re in isolation and I don’t have a neighbor to grab my mail, so hopefully when were released tomorrow my auto will be waiting

Thanks for the well wishes everyone!

Whelp I’m getting nervous now. Still no Hamill auto in the mail. Hopefully it just got stuck in sorting and arrived early next week as I’m 100% sure there’s no back-up/replacement copies

Kid comes early, Hamill comes late... it'll all work out.

Also, congrats!

Hamill is here safe a sound! Small creases along the bottom/edge from slight bending but nothing at all to worry about as it’s a permanent PC piece for me!

I’m WI and got mine Tuesday. I know an IL and OH person who had theirs Fri/Sat.

Hopefully you’ll see it by the weekend.

While my USPS mail preview didn’t show the exact item it say “an item which we do not have an image for” or something like that so keep an eye out that way.

Fingers crossed for ya!
