PartagasX

Hello potential traders, here's a little info on what I'm looking for. Hope we can swing a deal!

1957-1967, I prefer at least VGEX but will accept VG with no major flaws: large creases, paper loss, writing, water damage, miscut or badly OC. Swapping pics would be appreciated.  I'm also OK with swapping fillers for fillers.

1968-1973, I'm looking for at least VGEX, no creases, paper loss, writing, water damage, miscut or badly OC.

1974-1979 I'm looking for at least EX condition, no creases, paper loss, writing, water damage, miscut or badly OC.

1980 to present, I'm looking for at least NRMT. 

All of my vintage traders (pre '81) have grades on them.  If you add a card with a VG grade to the transaction, it will be VG, GD will be Good, VGEX will be VGEX Etc. No surprises. I do my best to be honest and accurate.  If your cards have issues, please disclose them before we trade and I will do the same.

I also collect the following:

Vintage Oddball Dodgers, (Bell Brand, Morrell, Jay Publishing, Postcards, Team Issued sets, Etc.)

Everything else on my want list is there to round out trades, not a priority.

As a general rule, I prefer to trade vintage for vintage and modern for modern. I will consider trading vintage commons for newer stuff, just try to be fair and reasonable with your offers. 

I work two jobs so mailing is done on Friday-Monday

At this time, I'm not doing any trades outside of the U.S. 

Collecting George Brett.  Also starting to collect Royals team sets.  But Brett is my main focus

03/06/24 1,259 different George Brett,  

02/01/24 8,063 different Kansas City Royals

Topps Royals team set update 3/5/24 10 left. All others complete

1969 missing 1 (662)

1970 missing 1 (702)

1972 missing 5 (664, 717, 728, 742, 763)

1973 missing 1 (643)

1975 missing 2 (7, 228)

I strive for a 100% positive rating. I believe being a good trading partner is the right thing to do, and it means I have credibility to continue making deals. If we trade and something is wrong, please let me know so I can fix it.

I will try to give you as much information as possible on the cards you would receive. I'll send photos and explain issues. I have been updating conditions on my cards for trade.

I grade conservatively. An EX-MT card to me might be NM to you, so just ask for details.

Please don't send me cards with soft or dinged corners. Just let me know before and we can try to find substitutes to complete the deal.  

I always mail from the post office. This is partly because I don't have outgoing mail in my apartment building, but also so I get the right postage on your package.

I try to be thorough when I respond to messages for trades in progress, but I am often lousy at responding to new proposals. If nothing grabs me immediately, I sit on them and time passes. Sorry to anyone I have left hanging, and I will try to improve.

I collect just about anything related to the Baltimore Orioles.  My collecting passions include Orioles team issued postcards, team issued B&W 8x10 photos and programs.  I also collect items from the Orioles minor league affiliates from 1954- present, especially programs and team photos.

My Orioles card collection ranges from 1954 - present.  I really enjoy Orioles regional and oddball card sets.  I also collect minor league sets from O's affiliates.

Recently completed a '68 Topps Game set and reached my goal of 1000 different Roger Clemens cards on TCDB.  Now I'm focused primarily on completing the following sets: 

1957 Topps

1954 Red Heart

Also, I hoard 1969 Bill Dillman Topps cards in any condition.  If you have any to trade, hit me up! .  

Still need to enter Starting Lineups.  I enjoy collecting autographs, tennis, basketball, football, Olympic sports, and baseball.  Non-sport cards in my "collection" could likely be available if there's something you're looking for.

Variation Opinion Section:

With 1989, 1990, & 1991 Donruss, I only want 1 copy of each card number (except checklists and Juan Gonzalez); I have recently tried to put the "for trade" ones in the right variation, but those are likely not 100% accurate.  Same for 1987 Topps Football, 1991 Topps Football, 1991 Bowman Football, 1992 Topps Kids, 1992 Stadium Club, 2006 Topps Total Football, 1992 Leaf (and Leaf Black Gold), 1992 Fleer, 1994 Topps, and most UD hologram backs.

With 1990 Topps Football, I would like both the disclaimer and non-disclaimer backs, so the variation is important and I have kept those "for trade" ones accurate.  1990-91 Fleer I am looking for the "no black line" backs so those variations are important.  1990 Score baseball I'm looking to finish the master set, so those variations are important also.

With Brewers & Packers Police sets, I do not care which municipality the card is from, I just want 1 of each player.  I have not tried especially hard to put the "for trade" ones in the right variation, but if you'd like me to check specific ones, I'll do that.

**Getting rid of all my commons across all baseball products new and old, I have been offering a lot of people bulk for a few cards, if your interested in a bunch, let me know, willing to sell them bulk for cheap as well, shipping figures in, but hoping to get them out to people that need them**

**Have to update that I am only shipping to US and Canada at this point**

I collect Vintage, Heritage, Archives, and most retro Baseball releases.  I like old cards and new cards with vintage designs.  I also have a growing collection of poorly cut and wildly written on cards, so I always enjoy finding examples of those, may publish a book of them some day, but they are not a premium to me, I like them cheap and crazy!

Worst collecting regret...so far....selling my dads SGC 2.5 Mickey Mantle rookie card(9007788-062), his SGC 4 1952 Jackie(9007788-067) and my 1953-1980 complete sets through Heritage Auction House in 2016, they acted like they cared but in the end their level of interest and service goes hand in hand with the grading number on your card, they flaked and disappeared on me losing thousands of my cards in their vault for over a year, stay away from them unless you have the 9.5 Mantle like they just sold, they care then.

I have most of my vintage cards listed for sale/trade but my extras are mostly well loved to good-vg examples, so if you prefer perfect cards or EX-MT I probably can't help you.

My Trading thoughts...

-In terms of overall trades, my vintage is well loved, but in decent shape, im generally looking to trade it for other vintage on my want list(which is mainly variations, Topps oddballs, or a 1952 Mickey Mantle :0) or interesting Heritage/Archives stuff like relics, SPs, or autos in roughly equal value.  

-For vintage commons 1958-1985 I have removed cards with really bad corners, gum damaged, badly mis-cut, bad creases,  and anything falling into the poor category and some bordering on fair.  So cards will be high fair condition , mostly good condition, some VG, and a few EX.

-For vintage commons 1952-1957 I have removed cards with missing corners, badly mis-cut, full on creasing and bent cards, but some are what I would consider fair with creasing and rounded corners, generally the older the cards in my lists the lesser condition they are in.

-For vintage stars and high numbers from all years I have removed gum damaged, badly miscut, and cards in poor condition, but have left ones in my trade list that may have bad corners, some creasing, and would be considered fair condition due to them being harder and more expensive at the higher grades, so ask if that is something that might bother you I can share details on defects or photos.

-In terms of Heritage SPs, now that I am done with them, I am more willing to trade what I have left of them for other Heritage special inserts, chromes, autos and/or relics I need in a similar value range.  I no longer require an SP for an SP, but more so then looking for something common, looking to trade them for Heritage stuff I don't have.  All cards are EX or better, with only pack related issues.  I try and remove all dinged corner cards, but if you get some I missed I'm sorry and will work to correct if they are not.

-In terms of Heritage/Archives commons and most other cards I am willing to trade them for most things on my want list again in roughly equal value across the products.  I am also willing to sell bulk Heritage commons if you need a lot for a set.

-In terms of my 80s OPC stuff, it ranges from Fair to Ex condition, I remove cards with writing and serious damage, there are some 71/72 and 79-84 cards that are in lower conditions and mis-cut, as an American collector in the Midwest OPC is hard to get, I usually buy bulk lots and some cards are in bad shape, I pull the really bad ones out, but as experienced OPC collectors know mis-cuts are a way of life, so please understand this.

-I have a few of the Super 7 action figures from the Big League baseball line as well, I look for roughly $25 in trade value for those or figures from the list I don't have in exchange for any of them.  This is the going rate for these and shipping will cost me extra due to the size.

-I have several vintage non-sports sets I have been building, some since my childhood, I am glad to trade equal value and time period baseball cards for those as well.  These cards tend to be Good to EX.

-I have a lot of extra sets of recent Heritage and Archives as well as extra sets of 1980-1989 Topps, Donruss, and Fleer made up of cards I myself opened in the 80's so if you looking for a set let me know and we can discuss how I can give my old cards a good home. 

In the end feel free to offer a trade, I wont be offended but may say no based on the above.

I Sell Cards:

Find something on my Trade List but don't see any trade matches? I will sell almost anything.

Trades:

I look forward to trying to complete my goals and yours, in trades both sides are satisfied with. Almost all of my modern cards will be near mint - mint, as they went from packs in to boxes immediatley. I would like the same in return. If anything I'm sending to you falls below that standard, I will let you know or let you see pictures first for your approval. Vintage cards are a little tougher and will always send photos first. All I ask is that you are up front with me in return. Thank you.

Throughout the week I’m available for responding and making offers.  I’m usually only around my cards on the weekend, pulling, accepting and packaging offers will occur then. 

Trading only.  PWE is fine, let me know your plans.

Conditions of my Cards
My cards that do not have a condition listed in the database can be assumed to be free of wrinkles and other major issues. These cards are likely to have corner wear based on the age of the card, generally Ex or better. All other cards with a condition listed are my best guess.

Not currently collecting.  I am cataloging my dad's and my collections.  My dad has Alzheimer's and we are just looking for a good home for his collection.  We have full sets mainly from the 80's and 90's as well as lots of singles.  My dad collected everything Dodgers, Utah Jazz and anyone connected to Utah. Baseball, basketball and football. The local shop knew how to hook my dad by putting his passion on the bid board every week.  He would come home with 30 to 40 singles a week.  Not a lot but it added up.   I was the dump for his extras lol.  The singles are taking forever to catalog so there is more coming.   I am not versed in all the pricing but I will try to be fair.  Let me know if there is anything that piques your interest.

1. Nolan Ryan (#11 on TCDB)

If I send an offer that's not to your liking, PLEASE counter. (I sometimes do this in a hurry and even I know they don't always make sense.)

I love trades. I'm happy to sell. I'm very unlikely to buy. 

I am not very picky about condition for my PC. I always appreciate a heads-up, but its very unlikely to be a deal-breaker. 

Robin Yount Super Collector - my collection is currently ranked 5th on the site (and climbing!)

I'm currently building a 1967 Topps baseball "beater" set - creases, ink marks and all!

Also searching for George Brett, Nolan Ryan, Pete Rose, and Alan Trammell items.

Looking to move extra and unwanted cards for my PC needs, I'm not hesitant to make large trades. I'm also not obsessed with trading 'card-for-card' or for exact 'value'. If you see a card you need, make an offer - I'd love to help you finish sets and add to your collection.

Visit my YouTube channel 'The Vintage Composer' for more info on sports card collecting, moments in sports history, trivia, and more!

Master set collector with a focus on when I started 1989-1993.  Love collecting the parallel sets 1993 Stadium Club 1st day production, 1992 Action Packed Mint, 92-93 Topps Gold, 1991 Pro line autographs and national convention cards.

Baseball, American Football, Basketball, Hockey

Especially:  Milwaukee Brewers, Chicago Bulls, Chicago Bears, Boston Bruins, Cards with artistic rendering 

PLEASE READ BEFORE SENDING A TRADE OFFER:

>>> I DO NOT BUY OR SELL ON TCDB. I ONLY TRADE, AND I WILL NOT TRADE ANYTHING OUT OF MY PC. <<<

I will gladly trade PWE worldwide with almost anyone. I will only mail about 18-21 cards per #10 envelope domestically (with a few exceptions), and 12-18 cards per #10 envelope internationally. I've found that sending about 12 cards per envelope is ideal for international trades. For large amounts of cards (>36) with U.S. traders, I can do either PWE or bubble mailer, as long as both parties agree on the method of shipping.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I want to complete special issue and insert baseball and hockey sets that I've been working on, and to work on my PCs of Jerome Bettis, Martin Brodeur, Ilya Kovalchuk, Bernie Williams, Vladimir Guerrero, and Garrett Anderson.

SPECIAL PROJECTS: An Alec Mills collection (he played for my high school and he helped coach my son some one season); a collection of players from the four major American sports with the last name Davidson and its variations; a collection of baseball, basketball, and football RCs of former Southern Illinois Salukis. I am always wanting RCs of former Tennessee Volunteers football players, whether in a Vols uniform or a pro uniform.

Ebay ID: darth1970

Mostly Baseball but also some Basketball, Football, Hockey and a little non-sport. Mainly looking at completing a lot of sets 1955-2021. Looking for mostly VG for 50's - 60's and mostly VG-EX (70's) and EX-NM (late 70's-present) going forward. Creases and writing are fillers for me. Will definite consider less than that for star/key cards of sets. Prefer to trade sport for sport ex. baseball-baseball) and vintage for vintage but not set in stone. I try to trade value for value. Please don’t ask for 20 HOF/star rookies/inserts for 20 commons from the same era. Also high wants are A&G and Gypsy Queen mini's but I don't have that many marked in trade wants as of now. If you have any you’re willing to trade lmk what you have and I’ll work out a trade. 

I am a trading card hoarder, more so than a collector. Although, I love looking through my old cards and sorting them. I'm always changing my mind, when I'm 90% complete from the organizing them the previous way.

Baseball would be the sports most sought after in any version, since they cards have led me to be a bigger fan, and because I thought I was going to me on a card on day. However the baseball career ended in a junior college were I was not able to make the team. Some thing in life happened so the dream, ended there.

Cards have been a way for me to coup with life, they were my entertainment and my stress relief. I would even invent games or incorporate cards into games. So they kept my mind busy.

The total amount of years focused collecting, is much lower than most my age. I started and left late because I had to grow up, I was become a father. So my beginning was brief 3 years. After my separation from my wife and dealing with anxiety issues, the cards came back briefly. Then in 2015, the hunt began to add cards to my collections, from the dark years. Thanks to the internet, I found like minded collectors on facebook, then YouTube, Twitter, etc...

Now I'm in the middle of the hobby boom, and I'm having a good time hoarding cards that are appealing to me and making new hobby projects, such as binders, & set collecting.

The biggest collecting goals are finding unique and factory variations of Ryne Sandberg cards. Build a new collection of Mike Trout base cards, maybe some high end. Mike Trout has the local sports figure tag.
Here are players, I tend to trade or buy.

1. Ryne Sandberg
2. Wil Myers
3. Mike Trout
4. Phillies (along with all team cards, I have separate projects within)
   Phavorite Phillies
   Ryan Howard, Chase Utley, Jimmy Rollins, Scott Rolen, Mike Lieberthal, Jayson Werth, Andrew McCutchen, JT Realmuto, Bryce Harper, Rhys Hoskins, Roy Halladay, & Cole Hamels.
   Phanastic Phillies Cards (These are cards that just look sweet, or vintage)
5. Steelers
   Player collections building for Jerome Bettis, TJ Watt, and Kordell Stewart.
6. Goalie cards
   Building a franken set of just goalie cards
7. Puerto Rican Baseball players
   Players from San Juan Dream Team in 1995, or world baseball classic team in 2017
8. Birthday Buddies, Any player born on August 1.
   Gregg Jefferies, Adam Jones, Madison Bumgarner, Pete Mackanin, Kenny Vargas, Edgerrin James, Stacey Augmon, etc...
9. Sixers
   Joel Embiid is the most desire, with Allen Iverson, and Jerry Stackhouse.
10. Newly added to the mindset Flyers Travis Konecny

I'm sure I am missing others I like to buy.

On trading card database, my hope is to build some trading relationship with cards, I'm willing to let go for cards, I would like or have on the want list.

My only issue is something I like other stuff, that I did not realize existed, or acetate & shiny. So hopefully this can get me away from the only Ryne Sandberg card offers.

Check back in January for more!

I like to be quick and responsive in trading.  My promise to you, is that if we propose a trade, I will respond very quickly, and if we both agree, your cards will be mailed out within 24 hours.  As soon as cards are received I'll mark as received / completed, and then give you a positive review.  I would hope for similar from my trading partners.  My word is my bond.

Currently working on: 

2008-09 Topps updated

Complete sets of 83, 85, 86 and 87 available to trade for full sets I need  

Complete sets needed: 2015, 2018 (Topps base)

My goal in collecting is to obtain cards to build sets for the enjoyment of collecting and learning about the the game and who played in the past and the present. I do not sell cards and plan to pass my collection in to my boys. I also don't have condition in condition of cards  

I work in Minor League Baseball for over 20 years with the Somerset Patriots, the new Double-A affiliate | New York Yankees (But I'm an Astros fan).

I've been very blessed in my trades and transactions here on TCDB. Thank you to all. I will trade vintage for modern and vice versa as long as there is roughly equal value felt on both sides. I am a set builder and collecter. I do not speculate on my cards for future value. I do this for fun, not for profit. I will sell, but only to build a small bank of money to use for buying cards I can't trade for. I've traded hundreds of cards each way and I've done many 1 for 1 trades, so no trade is too big or small for me.

In packaging, I use painter's tape ONLY. I try to use a photo mailer for small trades of about a dozen or less.  I use #10 PWE for trades up to about 2 dozen cards and maybe 2 PWE for 4 dozen.  After 50 cards, I typically will use a bubble mailer with tracking.  If it is 200 or more cards, they will likely be in a box well padded.

5 cards incoming is a minimum for trades, please! (Unless it's a higher-value card)

I am prioritizing my collecting on Nebraska Cornhuskers currently, so any trades for those former players are preferred.

I care about VARs/variations/parallels. If it's documented that way on TCDb, that's the one I'm looking for! Please take a little time to confirm your cards being offered are correctly documented. Easy traps that everyone falls into are 1990s ProCards/CMC cardbacks and football hobby base versus retail base.

Check out the results of the Ukraine trip here!

Declining trade offers with no message is of little use to the person initiating the trade, show some effort to those putting together trade offers and take a few seconds to note why the trade doesn't work in its current state. A few moments to communicate can lead to a deal getting done!

On the flip side, please stop sending me 1-4 card trades showing that you didn't read/ignored my top message in bold, respect for time goes both ways!

About Me:
KC Royals and Nebraska Cornhuskers Team Collector, and Alex Gordon/Jermaine Dye Super Collector. TCDb enthusiast!

My glory years of basball card collecting started in 1975 when I was 9 and ended when I went to high school - 75-80 Topps is my thing.   I have completed all six sets since joining - 75, 76, 77, 78, 79, and 80.

I am a life-long Cardinal fan so now focused on building Cardinal team sets.  Only missing a few from '53 to '93.   Starting work on the more modern stuff now.    Have a few '52s also but saving that set for last.  

I have mostly 60s and 70s to trade.   Will do vintage for modern in the right ratios.  
 

Topps base only.     

I collect mainly baseball, plus some non-sports sets.

Sets - N4, N20, N21, N31, N224, T6, T28, T51, T57, T96, T108, T200, 1934-36 Diamond Stars

Phillies and Yankees

If there is a Phillies card I do not have, I want it. :) 

I am one of the members that helps within the site.  I work closely with the IRs and can answer most questions.  Please send me a message if there is anything I can assist with.  If I don't know, I can certainly try to figure it out or direct you to a resource.

I am a player collector...collecting Robin Yount and Ersan Ilyasova

I like to trade!!  I mainly prefer PWE trades but am set up for larger trades too.  I have a scale at home and the wife works at the post office, so I rarely need to go there.  I like to get my trade list into the hands of members that could use them.  If this means that I give a lot more than I receive, this is fine with me.  You get the cards you need; I get the space back in my area.  I am open to buying and selling, but mainly, I am a trader.  I have mostly gone through and updated for the correct variations in my trade listing.  I also have a spreadsheet that I have documented my Glow vs Non-Glow backed '91 Topps.  Let me help you fill your collecting needs.

My primary collection is something regional, I really want to collect the old Brewer Police cards, they were issued for each community throughout Wisconsin.  But I have been especially looking for the Robin Yount cards.  I think there are over 785 different police sets issued between 1982 and 1993, with over 865 different cards that I am very interested in (He has two cards in the 1993 sets).  Currently, I have 311 different Yount cards.  It's actually been fun, but I have a long way to go.  Any of the other Brewers cards that I have would be available if you are interested but let me check on the condition.  Since I am getting a lot of them through thrift stores, eBay and rummage sales, some are pretty ragged.  I also have Packers Police cards that would potentially be available too.

A fun project that I have started is gathering information on Robin's 3,142 hits.  I have been putting a collection together of him and the pitchers that he hit off of.  This means that I am on the hunt for many, many copies of Robin's Topps cards, one copy for every hit within that year.  But also, many AL pitchers.  I plan to match up the pitcher's card with Robin's card and add a little write up of the at bat and the game.  I'm such a nerd.  UPDATE - Still need over half of Robin's Topps cards.  But I have done very well in regard to his pitchers.  I only need 3 and 2 others to have upgraded!!  Big thanks to everyone that has helped!!

I personally have a very small collection and wants.  When I find something for myself,  I like to try to give a little extra as a big thanks for finding me something special.  Thank you to all that has helped!!

FYI I'm not going to pull the cards then send an offer only to be rejected, never replied to or counter offer. If you want to do the trade, send me a message or accept but hold off on mailing till I pull mine. If I make a mistake I will do my best to make it right. 

Started collecting baseball cards in 1966. Stopped in 1971. Started again in 1987. Stopped again in 1994. Started to try to reduce the size of my collection when I joined this database. Not sure if I'm getting anywhere.

Like a lot of diiferent card types. If you look at my collections you will get an idea of what. Especially  like cards from before 1970 and oversize cards. Very flexible when it comes to condition.  

Favorite team: Cardinals

Favorite players: Albert Pujols, Randy Johnson, Tony Gwynn, Nolan Ryan, Orlando Cepeda and Bob Gibson

Too hard to pick a favorite set but there are definitely some I just do not like the looks of.

57 Topps (boring) 62 Topps (makes me think of wood paneling) 70 Topps (hate gray) 72 Topps (Tackiest looking ever) 81 Topps (hate the little hats that don't look like the team's actual hats) and 89 Fleer (another gray card set)

Todd Helton, Ozzie Smith, Albert Pujols, Mark McGwire, Nolan Arenado, any prominent St. Louis Cardinals or Colorado Rockies player, interested in non-sport sets as well... Open to any kind of trade!

Cincinnati Reds

Wichita State Shockers

Barry Larkin

I keep up with the base Topps and Donruss baseball sets.

I also enjoy collecting oddball baseball sets.  My current focus is on the following:

• Starting Line Up cards (not the figures)
• Sponsored team sets like Police, Fire Safety, Kahn's, Coke, etc.
• Updating my Hostess box panel cards (individuals)

I am always looking for cards that I do not have of the following Hall of Famers.  Serial numbered cards less than 100 are not on my want list but I am still interested.

• Frank Thomas (White Sox only)
• Carlton Fisk (Red Sox or White Sox)
• Ernie Banks (Mr. Cub)

PLEASE READ

CARD CONDITION

I have removed all recent cards that are not NRMT or better from my inventory.  ExMt or better from 80's or earlier.  Anything less than ExMt will be specified and discussed before mailing.  In turn, I ask that you do not send me anything that does not meet these criteria. 

POSTAGE

I will send all cards in plain white envelope (PWE) unless agreed otherwise or if card values are high.  Mailing more than 18 cards may be split into separate envelopes.  I always buy postage at the post office and get a receipt so I have some kind of verification.

Single cards will go out in a toploader.  Multiple cards will go in a 9 pocket sheet, folded and placed between more rigid cardboard.  The goal is to keep it thin to keep it cheap and avoid package charges.

TRADING

I use Beckett pricing to even up trades.  If you look up prices on Ebay, Sportlots or COMC, sell your cards there.  

Currently working on Topps and Topps Chrome sets from 1998 - current. Both the regular set and the traded/update/rookie sets. 

Topps - Baseball & Football are my main focus 

Bo Jackson

I've been a baseball collector since the late 80's and love to trade.  I am primarily a set collector and belong to several online trading clubs.  My never ending goal is to collect all the regular issued Topps cards from 1952 to present.

My main collecting interests are vintage cards,  Minnesota Twins,  a few newer sets and Bert Blyleven.

Vintage sets:  1952 Topps, 1953 Topps, 1954 Bowman, 1954 Topps,  1955 Topps,  1956 Topps,  1957 Topps,  1963 Topps,  1967 Topps

Newer sets: 2004 Donruss,  2005 Donruss,  2012 Cooperstown.

* I prefer not to trade vintage cards (below 1976) for newer cards.

* Before delivering or accepting a proposal please make sure you have all of the cards.

Cincinnati Reds Team Set Collector - 1909 (T206) to current Base, Inserts, and Traded sets, Food Issues, SGAs, and various Odd Ball Reds cards

I LOVE TO TRADE!  Big, small, any years--I am not too picky as long as both sides are happy. Will also SELL and buy. Typcially do PWE trades of 30 cards or less but am usually up for just about anything. Happy to review what Reds you have on your trade list if you are not seeing something on my Wantlist.  

****Hebron Reds Fan is also becoming a Hebron FC Cincinnati Fan!  So feel free to offer up FC Cincinnati soccer cards for trades!******

2024 Goals (as of Jan 1, 2024)

• Keep growing my Cincinnati Reds collection (currently #3 on TCDB with 16,341 unique Reds cards).  
• Collect as many Nick Castellanos 2021 Topps (#365) and Topps Chrome (#205) parallels and variations as possible.  If you have one I don't have--I want it! 
• Complete my 1400th trade on TCDB (currently at 1169).  
• Get my For Sale/Trade list to under 7000 cards (currently at 8043).  I would actually love to be under 6000 cards--but I always seem to fail miserably at this goal.  
• Perform more random acts of kindness (send some cards someone's way to help them out or celebrate a birthday or just because!)
• Keep having fun collecting!  This is not my retirement nest egg.  It is not my job.  Just here to enjoy a hobby, celebrate my Redlegs, and feed my OCD tendencies.

Trading/Selling all non-Cincinnait Reds cards. 

I am very open to trade proposals and also happy to SELL.  I also buy cards from time to time if you have Reds I need.  I welcome counter offers for trades that I initiate--so please feel free to review my lists and come back with an offer that works for both of us.  My sincere wish is that every trade is a win-win for all.  Let's help each other out and have fun!  

Let's make some trades!  Go Redlegs!

 I am looking to trade or buy for Phillies or anything on my want list. So trade with me please . I am adding new cards to my for trade list every day. I have my Phillies collection listed from 1887 to 2023

Player Collector - Paul Splittorff #1, Mike Sweeney #2 & Danny Manning #1  

Passion Project - collecting all base topps Royals card signed IP or TTM - (have 1,850+ and under 420 to go)

I collect every Toronto Blue Jays card that I don't have. I prefer to do PWE trades.

Send offers! For every 20-30 offers I send out, I get about one coming my way.

If I have cards on your wantlist and you don't have anything on mine, I will sell. It'd be nice to occasionally replenish all the funds I'm spending on stamps!

I guess it's time that I put a real profile description on here, as I've been around for a couple of years and am starting to ramp up my trading.

I am a baseball only collector. I owned a card store for about 9 years in the heyday of the junk era boom (1989-1998). When I closed it, I put the cards in storage for about 8 years, not touching them until roughly 2006.

 I decided in 2020 to narrow my collecting focus to only two areas:

1980's oddball sets if they were produced by one of the big five (Topps, Donruss, Fleer, Score and Upper Deck) Here's all I need from that era:

Some 1988, 1989 and 1990 Topps Stickers (1981 through 1987 complete)

Some 1983 Fleer Star Stickers (all other years complete)

A full set of 1980 Topps White Back Supers (all other years complete)

A full set of 1980 and 1981 Fleer Laughlin Team Logo stickers

1984 Fleer Update Gooden and Clemens to finish the complete run of 1984-1991 Fleer Update sets

A complete set of 1981 Topps Scratch-offs

Complete sets of 1983-1989 OPeeChee Stickers (have 1982)

All of the Topps Team Checklists from 1980-1982 (not the pack pulled ones, the ones that were printed on thinner cardboard sheets)

1970-1976 Kellogg's sets (I have completed 1977 through 1983. I might give up on this quest as these don't meet my criteria of being made by one of the big five, and finding older ones uncracked is hard and expensive.

A fair number of 1982 Fleer stamps (1983 is done)

Most of the 1989 and 1990 KMart blister pack Topps Batting Leaders

Some of the 1991 Score Rookie/Traded Magic Motion Trivia cards (1988-1991 regular sets complete)

That's it for 1980's oddball needs

Will detail my other focus (1990's complete insert sets) when I have more time.

I have tens of thousands of star cards from football, basketball and baseball not listed in my FS/FT yet, but will be working on that as time allows. If you see that I have cards on my wantlist that you have, but don't see anything on your wantlist that I have, send me a message and I bet I can round up some trade bait while I'm working on inputting them.

.  

Willing to sell anything on my trade list so feel free to put an offer out there. Typically will sell any common (1980 and after) for 5 to 7 cents each plus shipping, with good prices on stars, inserts, and rookies, too (usually 10 to 25 cents each). I'll try to give you a price you can't find anywhere else online.

TRADING 

U.S. trades preferred. Will trade to Canada if cards are harder to find ones.

Prefer trades of at least a few cards or a single higher value card to make it worth the time/stamp. 

Trades will ship in PWE unless other arrangements are made. Will send a maximum of 8 cards PWE to Canada.

Always happy to trade my newer baseball rookie cards in exchange for junk wax era rookie cards on my want list.

If you aren't going to list a condition for your cards, please know that I expect cards from 1987 - present to be EX-MT or better.

For vintage cards (and any newer card that isn't at least NRMT), I have conservative estimates of condition listed for most. Feel free to ask for more info on condition for specific cards. Generally, I look for VG or better for vintage coming my way, though will go to the Good range in some cases. Mainly try to avoid writing, major creases, and paper loss. 

Willing to trade across eras and sports if deal is a good one.

*Of note, some of the 70s & 80s baseball and football cards on my tradelist have conditions indicated and some do not.  It's a work in progress for me to have all of these updated.  If you have any questions about any, I'd be happy to answer them.  Most of my vintage traders have condition issues to some degree (some are fillers only!). If you're looking for nm or ex-mt, I'm probably not your guy. If you need/want fillers or lower grade, they can be had for minimal/no trade depending on the situation. Thanks!

***I ONCE AGAIN HAVE A BUNCH OF TOP LOADERS AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE OR TRADE.  IF YOU NEED SOME, HIT ME UP***

Now the #1 collector of Ryan Klesko cards on TCDB!  With more to come!

PC: 

High priority: Ryan Klesko, Dale Murphy, Dave Winfield, Dominique Wilkins, Kenyon Yovan, Michael Conforto, Adley Rutschman, Nick Madrigal, Trevor Larnach, Steven Kwan, Cadyn Grenier, Drew Rasmussen, Gary Payton II, Jacob Melton, Travis Bazzana, Trent Caraway, Gavin Turley, Garret Forrester, Will Frisch, Cooper Hjerpe, Justin Boyd, Mitch Canham, Kevin Abel, Nahshon or Rezjohn Wright, Terry Baker, Christian Chamberlain, Gary Payton, Ethan Thompson, Darwin Barney, Damien Martinez, Jam Griffin, Jake Luton, Jermar Jefferson, Hamilcar Rashed Jr, Luke Musgrave, Anthony Gould, Kitan Oladapo, A.C Green "In the Name" cards, Jade Carey.

Lower priority: Junior Seau, some Bo Jackson, Eric Lindros, Jordan Poyer, Mike Hass, TJ Houshmandzadeh, Jacoby Ellsbury, Steven Jackson, Nick Barnett, Matt Moore, Ochocinco/Chad Johnson, Sean Mannion, Johnny Hekker, Sam Gaviglio, Matt Boyd, any Oregon State alum/player in any sport (male or female).

PLEASE SEND TRADE OFFERS.  It's my favorite part of the hobby.  Always willing to negotiate a good deal for both sides.  One card, or 10+ cards.  I'm fine with any size.  USA & Canada only, unless the card is significant enough to me to ship overseas.

I do NOT collect/keep any other cards of any other players/teams.  If the card isn't a unique card to me of one of my guys above, it's not something I will keep.  I don't want duplicates either.  I'll trade it or sell it if it's something I think I can move; otherwise, no thanks.  But I DO want any card of any of my PC guys if I don't already have it.  My trade/sell and want/wish lists are updated, so if it's not on those lists, it's highly unlikely that I'm interested in it, or I already own it.

Fan of: all OSU sports, Braves, Red Sox, Blazers, Chargers, Flyers, Timbers, Tottenham FC.

Goal for VINTAGE ONLY CARDS (condition NOT very important...just no rips/tears, no writing on the front...some creases ok...not really concerned with how the back looks): Hank Aaron (preferably in a Milwaukie uniform, but not required), Mickey Mantle pre-1969 (earlier the better), Babe Ruth any vintage year, Joe DiMaggio any year, Lou Gehrig any year, Ted Williams pre-1955, Jackie Robinson any year, Shoeless Joe any year, Jimmie Foxx any year, Satchel Paige any year, and Stan Musial pre-1960.  For basketball, would like a Alcindor while in Milwaukie, early Doctor J, Oscar, early Magic/Bird, Bill Russell, Wilt, David Thompson, Cousy, Mikan, Moses & maybe a couple others.  Prefer to stay as cheap as possible, but for the right card might go a little higher...obviously Mantle/Ruth/Joe D/Wilt and those types would be more.  Again, condition I know won't be great at these prices.  I now have a Hank, Mantle, Jackie, Clemente, Yogi, Bob Gibson, Ernie Banks, Sandy Koufax, Mays, Jerry West, Maravich and Gervin at these levels, and a couple of Ted Williams, that I'm very happy with.  But the more the merrier if the price is right!

• I will typically send cards via PWE unless the quantity is above 20 and then I will send BMWT.  If you wish a smaller trade to be sent BMWT, please let me know & adjust the trade accordingly.

VERY willing to trade/negotiate.  I live to  trade...send me ALL trade requests!  Would prefer trades to purchases, although I know my PC is pretty limited in the grand scheme of things.  Just got back to the hobby in 2020 after approx 30 years out of it, and about 20 years after selling off 99% of it to pay for our wedding.  I forgot how much I loved it!

I primarily collect Royals cards.  I have completed most of the base set Royals cards and have been focusing lately on oddball sets and inserts. Sometimes I work on vintage sets (50's through '72).  I have completed most of the base sets from '73 through '89.  I also collect Kansas City A's cards ('55 - '67).

Primary focus is Topps Baseball.  My main goal being the 71 set.  I'm also big into Star Wars.  Don't have much on my want list but I'll never turn down star wars cards I don't already have in my collection.

My son and daughter are both big into different non sports (Pokemon, Mars Attacks, and anything political) and boxing.

If it's on my want list I'm willing to trade for it.  Shoot me an offer.

The primary teams I collect are: St. Louis Cardinals, Portland Trail Blazers, Oregon Ducks (college and alums), Portland Timbers and Portland Beavers. Secondary interests include collecting sets (especially Topps Heritage and Allen & Ginter) and picking up the odd Philadelphia Eagles card that suits my liking.

Player collections:

Ozzie Smith
Jim Edmonds
Chris Carpenter
Adam Wainwright
Darryl Kile
Matt Holliday
Matt Carpenter
Brendan Ryan
Clyde Drexler
Wesley Matthews
Rasheed Wallace
Randall Cunningham
Sabrina Ionescu

I absolutely do not use the pricing feature on TCDB for trading (or for anything, really.) Common sense should prevail here.

I am always interested in numbered, autographed and/or memorabilia cards related to the above teams/players, even if they aren't in my want list.

Cards in my collection are not for trade or sale unless specifically marked as "for sale/trade". I'm open to PWE and larger offers to all countries. Please let me know immediately if you do not want cards sent via PWE.

Notes for trading pre-1980 cards: For anything on my want list, I am most likely interested regardless of condition (within reason, of course.) For anything in my trade list, I have made an effort to add a condition tag to anything that I would consider less than near mint. I have zero experience in actually grading cards, though, so feel free to reach out if you want more details about any individual card including a scan or picture.

Taking a break from trading for the next month or two. Heading into a busy season and I just need to spend my free time on other things. 

Open to trading. If I don’t have any matches just message me and let’s see if we can work out a trade. If that doesn’t work I am open to selling. 

I am mainly a set builder.  My major goal is completing my "legacy" Topps baseball set (complete sets of every base set since the year I was born).  I am working on 71-73, and 2014.  I have the others.  70's era condition is not critical, I'll take fillers until my set is complete, so long as the value is in line with the condition.. If it's on my 1971, 72 or 73 wantlist, I'll take those cards you're embarrased to trade!  Anything from the 80's forward, I am generally looking for EX or better.

HEALTH UPDATE - thanks to everyone who reached out.  I am back to work, and feeling good.  I have significantly less colon than when this began, but ,by the grace of God, it appears that I have now fought off cancer a second time.

I pc Alan Trammell cards, my favorite player from childhood, and seeing as how I also just recently battled colon cancer, I am collecting Trey Mancini cards too. Football is Barry Sanders, Calvin Johnson and Chris Spielman.  Please feel free to add in any cards of these players in trades!  

I would like to trade my extra baseball 70's for 70's football or O-Pee-Chee.  Also trade my extra 80's baseball and football for 80's hockey and O-Pee-Chee and LEaf baseball.  I don't have these on my wantlists, because there would be so many...  If you are interested, however, message me, and I will initiate an offer.

I have several "extra" complete sets, that I would be willing to trade for a set of equal value that I do not currently have.  Check out my completed sets list on my website, if you think you're interested.

Selling most of collection.

When giving prices sometimes multiple people are interested in the same card. Will sell to First one to respond back and agree on the price. Also extremely busy so shipping out sometimes can be timely but very good with communicating constantly. 

Most cards are excellent condition. If not will always send pictures. Also will always send pictures of cards of decent value or if asked. But when dealing with many cards will send pics of anything not in perfect shape. 

Do not go off of this sites pricing. Go off current sales for what they are going for. Very fair.

Also live in NYC. Where there still are many cars shops which I am in a lot. If your looking for a valuable card and I do not have it just let me know and when I am in one of these stores I will definately look out for you. (Selling now but very much love collecting and helping people with their own collections.) feel free to converse about your favorite cards.

Hope all are well during these times.

I WILL ONLY TRADE MIKE PIAZZA'S FOR PIAZZA'S THAT I DO NOT HAVE

I only collect baseball. Pretty much any set. Currently working on 1948-1991. In the process of entering close to 200,000 cards going up to 2022. Gonna be busy for quite some time.

Don't see anything you need? Check back. My list grows daily and so does my collection.   

Currently working on entering 1991 Score World Series Magic Motion

I am ever so slowly entering football, basketball, hockey, golf, NASCAR, and miscellaneous that I will trade for baseball. These are cards that I acquired. I don't collect these.

As far as variants go, I collect:

     88 Topps Big - All variants

     89 Donruss - All variants

     89 Donruss Bonus MVP's - All variants

     90 Donruss - Both pack variants...not the factory version

     90 Donruss Bonus MVP's - All variants

     91 Donruss - Both Leaf, Inc variants...not the factory version

DISCLOSURE:

My Topps 59' 60' 61' and 62's are all Ex or Ex+ and looking for good homes.

My OPC/Topps 70's vary widely.  I hesitate to grade, but I do  know the parameters.  Ask for condition and I will put eyeballs on the card and let you know.

My Topps 79' and 80' are weathered.  Some dings, soft edges. Pesentable. Handled by me as a child.  If its creased, it isnt listed here

Everything else Ex+/Nm or better.

*** trades  CLOSED at  this time**

Will listen to small sale offers if I have something you need a lot.*******

Cardinals Baseball any year any brand

Some Vintage Topps Baseball Set Building (in any condition).....

Also doing 9 page project of John Riggins (Football/Redskins), see want list, can use dupes of some.

Memphis Grizzlies basketball added to want list past few years

I have NOT separated my traders into dot and no dot variations (or letter variations).  If this matters to you, I do not mind checking for a particular one for your want list...

I do expect nm or better condition on 81-present cards (unless agreed upon lower condition in messages)  On vintage, I collect any condition except on upgrade lists.

If you do want to trade vintage, please be clear on what your condition requirements are....many of my extra vintage are in lower conditions..

Oddball/Food Issue/Magazine/insert cards- Typically these have a much smaller print run/population than regular set cards like topps, fleer, upper deck etc.    When trading for these, I like to get similar for similar.  I will likely not accept a trade offer of oddball card for regular issue set cards.

Completed 2812+ trades with 641 different traders (in multiple groups) since 2005

Have lots of wants on my web page, not on this database

Everything in dupes collection is available for trade even if not in trade/sales list

I can only ship on weekends ....

Some of you may be frustrated that I turn off trades, but here is why:

I am in multiple trading groups, and simply do not have time to do more than 1 or 2 trades at a time

I am open to offers if you want to buy although my primary focus is trading.

Mariners cards. Any and all.

Goal: #1 M's collector on TCDb. Status: #1 (ca. 22 Apr 2024)

Rankings on TCDb in Collections of Some of my Favorite Mariners (and non-Mariners, non-baseball players, and teams) (ca. 22 Apr 2024): Logan Gilbert: #1; Felix Hernandez: #1; George Kirby: #1; Dylan Moore: #1; Cal Raleigh: #1; Kyle Seager: #1; Edgar Martinez: #2; Julio Rodriguez: #2; James "Cool Papa" Bell: #3; J.P. Crawford: #3; Mitch Haniger: #3; Ichiro Suzuki: #5; Seattle Kraken: #7; Bukayo Saka: #8; Barack Obama: #11; Ken Griffey, Jr.: #30; Arsenal FC: #72

• If you would like to know the condition of any card in a trade or sale, please message me and I will send you a picture and/or do my best to describe it. We likely have different standards for "card condition", as I have never had a card graded or intend to do so. For any cards with which I've noticed defects (e.g., rough corners), I've tried to mark them with "Fair" or "Poor" ratings. I am still working on updating this for all cards.
• I love trading, and I do my best to respond to every offer as quickly as possible; some weeks are busier than others.
• I usually will withdraw trade proposals after a week or so, so I can free up those cards for other trades.
• I'm slowly working on ensuring the small card variations (i.e., asterisks, periods, etc.) are correct, but please feel free to check with me during a trade.
• I will gladly trade base cards for inserts/autos/etc. If you can offer a lot of base cards for a higher-valued card to get from me, I'm all for it.
• I am more than happy to sell cards listed in my For Trade / For Sale list, too.

baseball, minor league, food issue/oddball

Yankees, Don Mattingly, Tri-City Valley Cats, Topps base sets

I  mostly collect football cards from the 90s, along with a couple autograph sets I love.  I try my best to properly grade any of my cards for trade and throw out anything I find with creases anywhere.  I prefer to trade 1 for 1, equal values.  Please don't offer me 100 1990 topps commons for a 5 dollar card , I'll reject it.

Collecting:

2004 Topps Fan Favorites Autos

1999 Upper Deck Century Legends Autos

2000,2002,2004 Greats of the Game Autos

1997 Leaf Repro Autos

1997 Leaf Old School Draft Autos

Pretty much any insert set from 1990-1997

Topps sets from 1997 and before

UPDATE 11/4/23:  Back into trading to help others finish sets and fill their PC and completing my Topps '60, '65, & '73 sets along with vintage Cardinals.  Vacation from trading over summer '23 and then dealing with family tragedy.

TRADERS: I am collecting VG/EX or better, and definitely no creases or writing.  PLEASE let me know if the cards you are providing as part of a trade are not VG/EX or better, and send me pictures if you have any questions.  I will provide same for you. 

NOTE re my '71 Topps For Trade:  The following cards have pencil marks on the front and should be considered in Poor (PR) condition due to those marks : #9/G. Scott, 33/D. Unser, 40/L. May, 114/B. Conigliaro, 211/P. Hennigan, 219/Hendricks, 252/Leon, 720/M. Alou  The writing is neat (must have been a precursor to my engineering career), not dark, and was done by me as a boy.  For example, the George Scott card has "Brewers" which was me writing his current team on the card.  I am willing to trade these (which if not for the marks would be at least VG/EX) and send pictures of front and back if needed.

Looking forward to some good trades!

I have been working on a master set of Torii Hunter, but I also look for other Minnesota Twins players as well.

Happy trading!

If I have a card you want but nothing on the trade match, then please message me and like the Beatles sing "we can work it out..."

Current projects: Ryne Sandberg, George Brett, and Nolan Ryan (playing career only) and base Topps for Joey Votto and Mike Trout.

Ongoing projects: Darryl Strawberry and John Kruk, one example of every Topps card, and the last Topps cards of players in the Baseball Hall of Fame.

Baltimore Orioles cards of all stripes and flavors! 

Sub-collections include:

• Cards featuring The Bird, the Orioles' mascot
• Cards featuring Oriole Park at Camden Yards or Baltimore's Memorial Stadium
• Cards or Stickers focusing on the Orioles logo
• Canadian-produced (or Japanese, Venezuelan, British...) cards of the Orioles
• Cards produced by the Star Company featuring Orioles players
• Weird unlicensed Orioles cards from the junk wax era
• Topps Opening Day cards featuring Orioles players

I'm good with PWE trading. Big or small trades can both be rewarding. I'll always aim to make sure it's an even trade where everyone is happy! 

At the end of the day, all of this should be FUN. 

Selling entire collection. All cards guaranteed to be in excellent-near mint condition. No creases. No noticeable scratches. Very few have a soft corner.  Offers / counter offers welcomed. As for the variations in 1990 Donruss I will send whichever one I have without regards to variations. If you want to know about a particular card ask and I will check.

Also I have about 30 unopened packs of 1990 Donruss for sale. $1 ea, 3 pks- $2, 5 pks- $3

To all those who have purchased cards from me- 

Thank you for all the advice, support, and patience!

Looking to trade for any and all St. Louis Cardinals that I do not have.  Only want cards showing the player in a Cardinals uniform (I do not need Nolan Arenado Rockies cards)  There are tons not listed on my want list that I need.  Always willing to listen to a trade offer.  Will also trade for Jose Altuve cards that my son needs.  

PWE or bubble mailer is fine with me.  Please put all cards in sleeves or 9 pocket pages and use blue (or any color) painters tape over the top of any top loaders or sheets.  Shoving cards into team bags without a sleeve results in bent corners. I have received quite a few packages from traders who must own stock in a scotch tape company.  Don't over due it to the point that I may damage a card removing it from an envelope.  Bending over one edge of the tape to create a pull tab is always helpful.  Please let me know if you receive any damaged cards or postage due mailers from me so I can make it right.

I have not owned a price guide in over 10 years.  I try to use sold EBAY auction prices if trading for high dollar cards.  If I shoot you an offer that is way off, feel free to counter.  It is not my intention to insult anyone.   

Last, but not least remember to HAVE FUN!  This is a hobby.

**Not interested in the 1980s Donruss 'Variations' **

I love making trades, but do not bother trying to sell me cards unless you are offering fantastic deals.  Otherwise I will reply "lol." 🤪

Really, I'd like to sell everything to pay off the credit card forever, so feel free to make an offer!!

Until then, I'll sell individual/lots of cards, or Trade for needs. I'm a Tiger fan and set builder. So if I get close enough to having a set, I'll probably try to finish it.

Old Local Guy: Matt Mieske, trying to get all the cards from  his career. (Accordig to this database, I only have a few left.)

Trading opinions:

I prefer PWE, over 100 trades, and I haven't had bad damage yet. (Knocks on solid oak desk.)

Larger deals will go bubble or even boxed if possible.

Foreign addresses... Golly, the prices right now. I'll do smaller deals to Canada, but others I'm going to have to say no to right now. Currently holding a package for australia. $113 for $30 worth of cards.

Parrallel cards/Varients: I've tried to identify them correctly, but it's getting more and more difficult to do so, so If you're particular about a specific card, help me identify it more closely, before we put it in the mail.

Love this site, thanks for participating!

60's-current baseball, football, hockey, and basketball, and Boston teams. Collecting star/HOF players, not trying to complete sets, but I'm happy to trade with set builders. Also happy to trade across sports if the value is reasonably balanced. If I'm trading vintage (up to 1980 or so), I'd prefer to receive vintage, but there can always be exceptions. Like many TCDB members, I've realized that the site prices are often junk, so I usually pay attention to the wanted/available ratios (the red and green numbers) instead, to get an idea of scarcity.

All of my traders up to the mid-90's are marked with grades, all are smoke-free, and pics will be shared as needed. Ideally, trades should involve cards that are similar to each other in condition. Most of my vintage are VgEx or better so that's what I'd prefer to receive, but there may be opportunities to trade lower grade for lower grade. I'd like to avoid obvious creasing, terrible centering/miscuts, writing, water stains, etc.

I have too few wants to match up for a lot of large trades, so most are PWE, unless the value is high or we happen to have a lot of matches. Any size is worth considering, and I've done a few one-for-ones. Want list is a mix of realistic targets and wishful thinking.

For anyone who has a lot of wants that match my FS/T, but not much in the other direction, I'd be open to selling. For those who enjoy a good bulk lot, the entirety of my 'Red Sox for sale' collection (~750 cards 1990-present) is available for sale for $40 shipped within the US.

Update:

1/13/24

Loser serving  1. This is on Starsfans page.

Shaggy69    for collecting PiF cards because he made other members believe he was hurt in a car accident. 

I  am so glad that Starsfans lives in my house to know what is going on. This is the reason I don't trust Cops. What good would it be for me to lie about being in a car wreck? This is how dumb he is. I am glad he is not a cop anymore because he could find his ass with a flash light and a road map. He is pissed off over and email that was not seen. All over 59 cards he wanted. What a child. Grow up

1/12/23

How do I say this for all the stupid people on here that are to into their feelings. I was sent a messages about trades. I didn't see that message and they got butt hurt about it. Then put me on their no trade list.  If you didn't read that past 4 month post then that is your bad.  I am still recovering from the rotator cuff tear that I have. So If you going to be a child about a message that was not seen. Then go take a leap off a building and save room in the world for better people. I don't have time for grown ass men to be children. For the people out there who don't know who I'm talking about it's Starsfan. Who now say I am on drugs because I didn't see his message he sent. What a grade A retired looser he is.

10/5/23

I just want to say to the people that have PIF me in the past couple of weeks and the people who have been send get well wishes. THANK YOU!!!! It means a lot to me.  I am working hard to get better. It's going to take some time to get back from 4 discs in my neck and lower back to heal. I am not sitting back letting it stop me from doing the hobby I love to do. So, thank you all for understanding and giving me the time to get you your cards.

9/11/23

Trades are open for a minute. I was in a bad card wreck 3 weeks ago and now I am trying to get some trades for people who ask if I am coming back soon.  And it's alot of people ask me. So please be understanding I have a back and neck injury that slows me down right now.  I am trying to help others out that is why I opened back you trading to see If I can do it.  In the past you all got your cards shipped out within the next day or two of me taking the trade.  It might take me a little longer to ship out with having so many Dr. appointments. but you will get your cards I dont have a perfect rating on here for people not getting their cards. I have done 1300 plus trades. an you can look at my feedback you will get your cards I just need some time. If you are ok with that then lets trade. Thank you for understanding.

11/4/22

FOR THE LAST TIME I AM GOING TO SAY THIS. I DO NOT BUY CARDS ON HERE AND I WILL NOT DO BIG TRADES. I HAVE A SET LIMIT OF CARDS I WILL TRADE AND THAT IS THAT. 

I will try this one more time. I will only do trades that are 20 Cards or less. If the trade is more then that I will decline the trade offer. I have lost to many card to big trades. An my no trade list is still in play.  If you keep asking for more then 20 cards at one time. You will be put on that list no question Asked.

I finally made the list this year. The Biggest Trade of The Year Tenlbpain and Shaggy69 4,247 Cards. Hell Yes!!!!! 

 Not buy cards for any reason if I need them or not.

All the colors of the rainbow.

No trades right now. Only selling cards for the time being. March 2024

No PWEs ever! I won't send them and won't accept them. I only use BM's or boxes for shipping and only accept the same in return.

Looking to buy cheap lesser quality vintage baseball and football lots.

I'm a collector, NOT an investor, and I deal solely on that premise.

I have my valuations and ANYTHING vintage (i.e. up through 1979) is considered more highly than anything newer.

I have tons of Wants from the overproduced late 1980s to early 1990s and I am looking to trade within that era for those, but I will go cross-sport, and will try to match HOFers, Stars, or Commons as much as possible in a card-for-card trade.

Mostly I'm a "You got gaps; I got gaps; together no gaps" type trader, BUT because I have plenty of oddball wants, I do not trade those for base cards (or even inserts in most cases). For example, I have plenty of Kellogg's cards, but I prefer trading them for other Kellogg's cards (or other food issued cards) from similar eras.

I ACCEPT lower conditioned creased and worn cards, but I wish to be told about them. The only flaws that I'll decline would be significant paper loss on fronts, markings or doodles that are excessive, or severely cut/torn cards. In those cases I'd still like to see scans to determine if they're acceptable. (I do NOT expect your condition requirements to be like mine.)

I vow to send securely and economically with VARs confirmed and condition issues noted or explained:

1. At least 18 cards going each way in a PWE.
2. Trades involving up to 90 cards will be mailed in medium to large business envelopes without tracking.
3. Larger trades will be sent in most economical way possible (obviously with tracking).

Focusing on These for Now (And the only ones which I'll consider in trades smaller than the 18 minimum from above):

• BASEBALL
  1. 1975, 1978, & 1980 Topps
  2. 1989 & 1991 Donruss Grand Slammers (master sets)
  3. 2001 Upper Deck Decade 1970s and Upper Deck Vintage (base and related inserts)
  4. Any Topps Heritage New Age Performers
  5. Any food issued sets
• FOOTBALL
  1. 1966 Philadelphia
  2. 1968 Topps
  3. 1987 Topps
  4. 1994 Ted Williams Roger Staubach's NFL (base and related inserts)
  5. 2009 Philadelphia
• HOCKEY
  1. 1971-72 & 1978-79 Topps

  5. Any food issued sets

I am a set collector, all sports, all manufacturers. Once I start a set, my goal is to finish it. I do prefer to work on sets that I have already started before starting new sets.

As I slowly get my collection catalogued here, I am also working on creating checklists for my sets using Google Sheets, and I am willing to share these templates with anyone that is interested.

I am creating grades for all of my "For Sale/Trade" cards. I am sticking with 4 grades. "Very Good" means that centering is pretty good and there are no issues with card wear with the possible exception of one dinged corner. "Good" means the centering might be off but all borders can be seen, there could be 2 or 3 dinged corners. "Fair" and "Poor" will have an explanation. For 1980 to the present, I will only indicate grades if the condition is good, fair or poor with an explanation. Otherwise assume the condition is excellent or better.

On my wantlist, if I have a condition indicated (EX or VG), this means that I am looking to find a card that will replace one in my collection that is in fair or poor condition.

All Collectible Items

Not collecting anymore. Getting rid of all my cards.

If my trading is turned back on, it's only to list what someone wants to get from me, not for trades.

It's been fun, but there comes a time for all good things to come to an end. This is my time.

Collecting quite a few different sets and teams and looking to trade for them! 

• Jewish Cardboard (Any Jewish person, athlete or star. Anyone that has a card)
• MLB Showdown (2000-2005)
• Ichiro
• Ken Griffey Jr.
• Allen & Ginter (All Years and Subsets) 
• Metal Universe (All Sports, All Years, All Subsets)
• Boston Bruins
• Boston Celtics
   

FYI - most 90s cards are in storage in ATL, so if those are part of a deal it may take a little more time.

Top Priorities:

• Barry Bonds
• Penny Hardaway
• Atlanta Braves - Acuna, Chipper, Maddux, Smoltz, Glavine, Albies, Riley, etc. (...somewhat Freddie)
• Atlanta Hawks - Trae, JJ, DJM, current roster
• Former GT athletes - Chris Bosh, Calvin Johnson

Secondary Wants:

• NBA superstars - Jokic, LeBron, Curry, Giannis, Kobe, Jordan, Shaq
• MLB superstars - Trout, KGJ, Mookie, Soto, Tony Gwynn, Frank Thomas

Other players loosely collect:

• NBA - DWade, Dame, Kawhi, D Mitchell, David Robinson, Nash, Dirk, Chuck, Vince
• MLB - Ripken Jr., Kershaw, Harper, Judge

Transactions are ON, lets trade!

My Collections--

• I like to build my Ozzie Smith & Ray Lankford collections.  My Want list is mostly updated on this site.
• I also like to build team sets of the St. Louis Cardinals.  
• Current grail card-  High quality version of https://www.tcdb.com/ViewCard.cfm/sid/35/cid/26913/1955-Bowman-257-Tom-Alston
• Unofficially a collector of Adam Wainwright rookie cards, even in a Braves uniform. 

TCDb Trading--

• For trades, when selecting cards from my want list, I prefer base set cards over parallels or inserts in order to complete team sets.   
• Open to any trade offer, just looking for equal value on both sides and cards from my Want list.
• I'm most likely going to use a PWE (Plain White Envelope) to send trades unless the trade is for >28 cards or higher in value or you let me know otherwise before the trade is agreed.  Thanks!
• I'll trade my few football and basketball cards for cheap if you want em!
• I have a complete set of 1981 Donruss Baseball I got as a door prize that I wont take the time to completely add to my FS/T list.  If you want it, let me know and we'll work out a good trade for you.  
• FYI-- When adding new cards to my FS/T list, Ive decided to stop worrying about a lot of minor variants from the early 90's, such as the Donruss "." variants, Upper Deck hologram variants, and various copyright code variants.  If you want a specific VAR in a trade, please ask at the time of the trade and I'll make sure I've got the one you need.  I worried about it for a long time so most are entered correctly.   Thanks for understanding. 

Ryne Sandberg - Buster Posey - Bo Jackson - Deion Sanders - Carlton Fisk - Roger Clemens

Working towards 1 of every Topps base set #18 card & #78 card 

Also working towards 1 set for each of the Diamond Kings set started in 1982 -

I should have all i need on my Wantlist

Joe Montana - John Lynch

Modern Tampa Bay Rays - Tampa Bay Bucs

Open for Trades or to sell from my For Sale/Trade list.  Shipping within USA only currently.

Typically, I do PWE (plain white envelope) trades but after a few successful transactions, I'll happily trade larger.

Mark McGwire

Matt Holliday

Stan Musial

Yadier Molina

Adam Wainwright

Rick Ankiel

John Elway

My main PC is McGwire, always looking to add!  Any card that's not part of a set or not a Cardinal's or Bronco's hall of famer is likely for trade to build on my PC.  I'm also starting to build up my Holliday, Wainwright, and Ankiel collections as it's becoming harder and harder to find McGwire stuff I need.

I'm working on Topps base sets from 1979-present, currently focusing on 1981, 1983, and 1984.  I'm also trying to finish off a pesky 1999 Ultra set.

Priority of my want lists:
1 - Any and all Phillies cards (almost anything not in my collection is a "want")
2 - Various set ventures (baseball - 1972 Topps, 2016 Topps Chrome, Archives, Heritage sets, then hockey sets)
3 - Baseball HOFers (1980s)
4 - Baseball HOFers (1970s)
5 - Baseball HOFers (1990s)
6 - Baseball HOFers (other decades)

If there are any other categories of want lists, they would fall between set completion and HOFers.

I added approx. 90,000 cards available for trade in early 2023.

[The next section has been updated on 3/4/2024]

Note: Currently transactions are ON.

While I have transaction requests turned on, trade proposals will be handled in the order in which they are received. I am continuing to take it slow because I don't have the time or patience to take on too many trades at once. Additionally, I have found that it makes it easier on both sides because the cards are known to be available. And please, when we do trade, please make it so that the postage to/from your location to mine makes a trade worthwhile for both of us. Thank you.

Please also note that I am very much open to selling in addition to trading. If you see stuff you want and don't have anything in return, that's okay. We'll work out a deal that will be fair for both of us, not just me (and not just you, please). (The listings over at the SwamiLee account are in my possession and I am also selling those. The only sport left there is baseball.)

Baseball collector only

I'm open to trade for any cards I don't have in my collection if there are cards on my for sale/trade list that you want. Just shoot me a message or offer and we can try and work something out.

If you are a variation collector in a trade, please let me know and I will verify the cards are the variations that you want.
