I should write to Best Buy and try to get a Canon 7D.

^Why not write to Canon? >.>

yeah, you mean write to Canon.

I remember having the same assignment in school. I sent a letter along with one of the 2000 point plateau cards to Wayne Gretzky. A few weeks later I got the card back with it signed.

i should pose as a 11 yr old and write to Canon for a new lens haha. And same on the writing, mine is so horrible looking compared to the grade 6'er, but i bet my typing is way faster :D

Lol can imagine some dude using the same grammar and prose as 6 grader then get all technical with the lens they want.

I should write to las vegas and get myself a free hooker shipped over

i gave up writing letters to people after santa fucked me over back in the day

I wrote a letter to jennifer lopez in grade 4 lololol. my classmate wrote one to matthew perry (chandler on friends) and got an autographed picture. :( I didn't get shit!

haha what a bitch

That is fucking cool.

I know you're probably joking. But there's actually a lot of people who do seriously count on other people's good nature to take advantage of, which in turn converts good natured people to skeptics.


Props to Nintendo.

Wonder how many of the other kids are damn jealous...

I don't know if my coworker is bsing me or not but he told me his friend do this all the time but instead of pretending like a 10 year old, he complains in his letters. Apparently from doing this, he got a lifetime supply of beer, cereal etc.

a lifetime supply of beer? wtf

We actually see a lot of these types of letters delivered to our production offices asking for pictures and autographs from kids, you'd be surprised how often they actually work.

pretend like a 10 years old kid and got a lifetime supply of beer ?

looks like you are the 10 years old here..

:lol I want a lifetime supply of powerade and gatorade :thumbsup:

You coworker is telling the truth, I had a buddy real down on luck and he went into his cupboard and wrote to every company in there complaining about the food/product. Low and behold a month or two later he ended up getting free gift certificates new products everything you can think of. He did that for 6 months until he could get back on his feet again and it worked perfect.

The funny kicker is some of the company sent back prepaid envelopes he used to send letter to his family with LOL

^ :lol pretty crazy story. I guess a good old letter snail mailed could go a long way. I wonder how many people send emails and get stuff vs sending regular mail

tats pretty crazy, talk about customer service at its best eh

The only thing I have ever done was straight up legit. I was eating a hotrod pep stick and bite down and chiped a molar on a piece of bone. Well I sent a letter and complained of course since I was mad and they ended up paying my dentil bill gas/time and sent me $50 in gift certificates for any product they sell. I will still pissed but happy it was dealt with.


I'm kinda tempted to send a letter to bunch of companys just to see it for the hell of it. it doesn't hurt them at all they just make more sales in the long run for making the customer satisified.

it works with Apple Inc. too
Instead of a mac the person gets Final Cut 2

what the kid can afford to buy a 8 core mac pro, and an imac, but can't afford to pay for the full cost of final cut 2??

Props to apple for sending him final cut. Maybe I should write to adobe and get CS5/LR3.
