NOTICE: I've decided to make a slight change my trading approach. I really don't have any interest in doing these large "player collection" trades anymore. I'm a set collector and all my traders are stored by set (in nearly 100 3,200 count boxes). It sometimes takes me hours to pull cards where someone is only looking for certain players. Going forward, I will be rejecting these types of large trades. I'm looking to help people complete their sets and vice versa. A good rule of thumb when sending a trade proposal... think how many boxes will I have to pull from? Sorry, but I hope you understand. Craig
I’ve been collecting cards for over 47 years and have over 521,000 unique cards in my main collection, including some nice vintage stuff. I collect older cards of the four major sports but lately I've been expanding to some more recent sets. I'm primarily a Set Builder and I’m looking for other like-minded set builders to trade with. I’ve accumulated tons of extra cards that I would like to trade away with almost 250,000 cards in my current For Trade list. Big trades don't bother me. I have a huge Want List, so hopefully you have something I need. Feel free to make me an offer.
For Canadian Traders: It's expensive for me to trade across the border. Going forward I would like to limit cross border trades to two (2) PWEs. That's about 54 standard-size cards. Thanks.
For Anyone Outside US/Canada: The increased postal rates have made it impossible for me to trade outside North America cheaply. So going forward I will have to decline trades from outside US/Canada. Sorry about that.
Update on Donruss/Leaf * Variations and Upper Deck Holo Variations:
I can't guaranty the junk wax era Donruss/Leaf cards and the UD holo variations are listed with the correct variation. Going forward I will no longer check the variations on these cards. If you want these cards regardless of the variations, feel free to request them in the trade. However, If you want a specific variation of these cards, I'm no longer your guy - please don't put them in the trade request. For all other cards that have variations, I will continue to check and make sure you get the correct one.
Note on Vintage Cards:
I have over 6,000 vintage cards listed for trade (I consider vintage to be 1977 or earlier). For each card I've noted a condition grade and if you check closer, a note on each regarding any condition issues (be sure to select the correct one if multiple cards are shown). Please note that I'm by no means a professional grader and if you're hyper-sensitive on card condition, please message me first and I'd be happy talk about it. In exchange for these cards, I have three priorities:
- 1) similar vintage cards that I need (any sport)
- 2) inserts for my 90s sets that I need (any sport)
- 3) or non-junk era base cards that i need as a last resort (any sport)
Note on Card Condition: A card noted as Pr, Fr, Gd, or GdVg will have some obvious condition issues such as creasing, corner wear, or marks. I would consider them place holders in a collection at best (I've listed them because some people do want place holders). A VG card will usually be a clean card with some corner wear or a centering issue. For me, VG would be the bare minimum for my personal collection. EX will be nice sharp card and VgEx will be something just between VG and Ex, still a nice card with a small issue that prevents it from being EX. NM in vintage is a tough find.
