I trade cards to build baseball, hockey and some miscellaneous sports / non-sport sets. I also PC Felipe Alou, Derek Aucoin, Steve Begin, Jennifer Botterill, Kevin Dineen, Laurent Duvernay-Tardif, Bob Kudelski, Manon Rheaume, Gabriela Sabatini and P.J. Stock as well. I do not buy cards. I also have a sweet spot for oddball / food issue / regional sets. New cards are regularly added to my FT/S list and all the cards I list here are NRMT or EX unless specified and I expect the same of you.

I don't collect micro-variations (dots, stars, copyright marks, holograms, printing plate codes...), they're not fun to search and I dislike the incessant frequency with which new ones are added. Seriously, what's the point if you gotta need to use a magnifier glass to check out if there's a dot on the back of a 1991 Fleer? However, I do all my best to check all my cards and to keep my lists up to date, but please ask me first, if micro-variations matter to you. The site really needs some way of opting out of micro-variations (just a default / any var. / unverified option for each card).

Besides helping to complete our collections one step closer each time, the opportunity would be nice to have traded with all the states, provinces and territories of North America. On this site only, I traded with members in 46 states, D.C., 9 provinces, N.W.T. and overseas. I can't wait to have a trade in Alaska, Delaware, North Dakota, Wyoming, Manitoba, Nunavut and Yukon. However, if you don't live in the above jurisdictions, you're still more than welcome to trade with me. No trade to Russia, Belarus and Iran.

I'm an easy going, helpful and patient guy, but here's now my turn to announce that my NO TRADE LIST is growing due to an increased lack of civility on the forums and the full site. If (1) you nitpick and/or always have an opinion on anything and/or act like you own the site and you're not Admin or (2) you do not respond to counters or decline without expressing a reason or don't PM me to ask more time after several days of wait or (3) you send me ridiculous off-balanced offers or (4) you accept the trade and you can't mail your cards in a timely manner or you send me loose or severly damaged cards or (5) have a brand new (empty) account without info / feedback and ask for valuable cards or (6) you clearly didn't read my profile (ask first, at least) and ask me to buy your cards, then chances are that you just won a place on my NO TRADE LIST regardless of how much I may want what you have.

I am fine with shipping cards in single or multiple PWEs, if the cards are properly packaged. Also, I don't mind large or small transactions, but I currently prefer trades with 10 to 20 cards going each way or at least that the cards carry more value than the postage. I am working 12 hour shifts, but I always try to ship the same or the next business day. Just remember that Canada Post doesn't pick up or deliver on Saturday and Sunday.

International shipping is very easy, but it costs more for BOTH traders (not just from the U.S.). Here are some tips to save on shipping costs to Canada: use PWEs (Plain White Envelopes) and avoid bubble envelopes, plastic boxes and big stacks of cards. Ship as flat as you can (cut 9 pocket pages in 3 rows and insert 4-5 cards in each pocket). The more it looks like a greeting card or documents mailed in a regular letter instead of a package, the more it tends to be cheaper to ship. Current U.S. to Canada first class postage rate (up to 2 oz) is $1.40 and if non-machinable, $1.79. If you don't have Global Forever stamps handy, three regular Forever stamps work as well. There's also no need to pay $14.85 for shipping with international tracking, because it is just too expensive, it will be way slower to arrive and Canada Post won't track your postal item anyway. Overall, postal service tends to be slower in Canada and at times a bit harder to predict, but it is as reliable as in the U. S.. Lastly, no cross-border shipping by Fedex or UPS: they charge $40.00+ custom brokerage on each and every package they handle no matter if it is duty free or not.

Looking to build PHILLIES team sets, Complete Topps and Topps Heritage Sets. made trades from  1 card to a trade of 800 cards. I will trade with members in Canada & Australia, even worldwide.

Any and all Braves cards from 1954 - Present (RIP Hank Aaron).

I have decided to scale back from trying to collect every Braves card ever made and concentrate on the sets I like. Lately it seems to be next to impossible to collect team sets since there are so many inserts, VAR, SP, and just all to many brands. Topps has once again turned collecting into $$$ for them by making so many different brands. The cost to collect is getting to be very expensive and making me question the hobby again. I still plan on trading and looking for the cards I am still missing.

Willing to trade just about anything for Braves cards......

I have been trying to do the impossible and collect the entire 2016 Topps and Update Sets. Any help would be appreciated!

Baseball, trying to complete Topps sets from 1980 to Present currently but will gladly accept any trades.

NY Yankees, NY Rangers and NY Jets..

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.

The ALS has advanced enough that I'm no longer collecting or trading. It's been fun guys! 

• Working on low to mid grade 1970 through 1972 complete Topps baseball sets, but I'll take any condition just to complete these sets. I'm focusing on these right now and I hope to trade as much for these as I can. I will buy if the price is right. I'm over halfway on 1970-1972 with HOF and High #'s remaining.

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.

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!

just adding have close to 3 million card. Having a few medical issues so would love to sell some cards too please make offers willing to sell collection too . Selling my sets as wholes so check out my collection list as well.

Trades have to be at least  worth the postage please 

ill be back as soon as I can :D , i have a few outstanding trades i will get those out ASAP

Football: New Orleans Saints and New Orleans Breakers

Basketball: New Orleans Jazz/Hornets/Pelicans

Baseball: Cincinnati Reds and New Orleans Zephyrs/Baby Cakes

Hockey: Vegas Golden Knights and Cincinnati Cyclones

Collegiate: Tulane Green Wave and UNO Privateers

Soccer: FC Cincinnati, Chelsea FC, 1. FC Köln, Inter Milan, and LOSC Lille

Also any player who grew up in the New Orleans area

Only interested in trades, not buying, at this time.

**Trading back on pause. Life has been busy and just haven't had time to keep up with trading. If you see something that you absolutely have to have, please send me a message and I'll see if I can make an exception for you. Thank you all for the previous submissions and for your patience.**

Nearly everything in my Main Collection can be for trade/sale for the right trade or price. Please comment in your trade offer if a card you want is a part of my collection. Personal Collection and Rookie Collection cards are not for sale or trade.

Looking for: 1) Minnesota Twins, 2) Minnesota Vikings, 3) University of Minnesota and NDSU 4) Minnesota Timberwolves and Minnesota Wild. Any cards from these teams are wants of mine even if they aren't on my wantlist. I don't need duplicates of cards I have but anything I don't own will have a spot in my collection. 

Trades: 18 standard cards or less will be sent in a 9 pocket sheet in a PWE unless discussed otherwise (thicker cards may lower the total cards able to be shipped this way.) Any trade with more than 18 cards or trades that include an autograph or memorabilia piece will be sent in a tracked bubble mailer. I will always err on the side of the bubble mailer to ensure the cards get to you safe. I also have paperboard mailers available but prefer to use them for my eBay sales so please notify me if this would be a preferred method of shipping for you and we can work something out. 

Purchases: Please include $4 shipping in all offers. All purchases will go out in a tracked bubble mailer unless discussed otherwise.

eBay: All cards listed on my eBay collection are either already listed on eBay or I plan to list at some point. These cards will not be updated as frequently so some may not be available if you include any of these cards in your trades/purchases. I am happy to sell through TCDB rather than eBay for these cards so please let me know if you need/want anything and I can remove it from eBay and sell through here. Link to my eBay profile is included in my profile. All images on my eBay are scans of the actual card I have in hand. 

Collect baseball Hall of Famers and notable players from the 70s/80s but am interested in all eras of baseball. I am not a set builder and enjoy helping people build sets. I will give a lot of commons for pretty much any cards on my wantlist so if you are looking to complete a set please ask for as many cards as you need. My collecting priorities are.

1. Players/cards from the 70's - early 80's. These are the players I grew up with and know the best.

2. Players/cards from before the 1970's. If I had an extra million $$ I would probably spend it on cards from this era because I have little to nothing to offer in trades for cards of this vintage.

3. Junk wax era cards, which I basically consider to be 1985 -1995 because that was when I was least interested in baseball.

4. Modern cards. I am just not interested in serial numbered cards, parallels, one-of-ones and all the other ways card companies manufacture scarcity to feed the business of collecting. With the exception of Topps Now cards. I love the idea of seeing something happen on the field and then ordering a card of it the next day. Current players I actively collect include, Zack Greinke, Joey Votto, Bartolo Colon, Andrew McCutchen, Max Scherzer, Roy Halladay, Ichiro Suzuki and Bryce Harper because he's is still the best thing the Phillies have going right now. 

I try to be careful of condition. I note condition issues where I can but have not yet gotten to most of my traders. If not noted I will check with potential trade partners on anything that is worse than EX or EX-MT for newer cards. I also try to keep my lists accurate but have given up on ever getting it perfect. I apologize in advance if there is something on my trade list that I don't actually have.

All offers considered but prefer to trade like for like - i.e. modern for modern or vintage for vintage.

I prefer big trades (50+) to small trades but am happy for any and all offers. Shipping in PWE is fine with me.

Trading off for now, to do some more re-organizing.

baseball, minor league, food issue/oddball

Baseball, Hockey, Football, Basketball, Cal Ripken Jr. & Odd Stuff...

Collect anything to do with Chicago Cubs  

I DO NOT BUY CARDS. I trade when I can 

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.

Teams...Reds, Bengals, Celtics

Players...Rose, Larkin, Votto, Phillips, Green, Johnson, Munoz, Bird, Nowitzki, Nash,  Mattingly, Chipper,  Piazza.... Completing Sets and Trading, Period!

This database is a great place for a collector. I've had all positive experiences on here all the people are great so far. If we do a trade and seems like your cards are not going to never arrived, they will, I can be a little slow. And most of the time when it comes to trading vintage and modern I would like that to be on like a 3:1 rate. It only makes sense.

OKAY THAT IS IT FOR NOW! NO MORE TRADING TO BE DONE BY ME. I am struggling financially - cannot afford the postage to send stuff out. Simple as that. Trying to get back into my career or management. Right now just a security guard.

 Ask before submitting a trade request. If you don't, I will refuse your offer.. Locals to Twin Cities area and Minnesota have top priority.
