Buy/Sell/Trade Forum

Last year, I had an idea to take the first pack I bought from the Topps base set and see if I could trade the cards for older cards, and continue to trade and see how old of a card I could end up with. It's still going strong, and has been an incredible success. You can read the latest update on my blog here: Update #25.

Since the newest base set is close at hand, I've been toying with the idea of adding the first pack of 2019 Topps to the stack. I'm unsure if it would generate some additional trading or not, and would like some opinions as to if this is a good idea or not.

As for the project itself, I just got a nice stack of vintage in thanks to a fellow blogger, and would like to get some more trade partners and keep things going. Here's a list of what's available. You can click on the links to go to the blog post where I'll have a photo of the card. All of these are available, and all I'm really looking for is a card older than what I send out. Baseball cards are prefered but not required. Anyone want to trade?

The Time Travel Trading Project is simple in concept. I started out with a random pack of 2018 Topps Series 1 baseball cards. My aim was to trade every card in that pack for something older. Each card I receive in turn is then made available for trade, with the goal to get the oldest card I can get.

Number of trades completed: 29
Unique trading partners: 21

Number of cards mailed out: 69
Year of oldest card mailed out: 1956

Number of cards received: 161
Year of oldest card received: 1938

I really liked you doing this last year and always tried to keep up when you'd post updates.  I think adding a pack of 2019 cards would be a good idea because some people may be set or team building and missing just one card and maybe that's one that you got.  I need to look at what I can trade you because I might be interested in what you have.  Can't wait to see more updates.

Update #26

Thanks to the feedback I have received, I've decided to take a pack of the new 2019 Topps and add it to the stack. All cards are available for trade, and the point of this experiment is to trade me oldercards in return! Make me an offer!

Update #27

I'm still getting just enough trades to keep this project going! There's still plenty of 2019 cards left, as well as all the older cards I've acquired so far. I still need willing traders! All I ask is for a card older than the one I'm sending out! I've reached over 30 trades so far, and would like to get to 40!

Time Travel Trading Update #28

This project has slowed down some, but it is still going on! I have plenty of cards for trade, and all I ask in return is an older card than what I'm sending.  Thanks to everyone who has traded with me so far - I still can't believe all this essentially came from a single pack of 2018 Topps! I'd like to keep this going, so send some trade offers my way!

The Time Travel Trading Project is simple in concept. I started out with a random pack of 2018 Topps Series 1 baseball cards. My aim was to trade every card in that pack for something older. Each card I receive in turn is then made available for trade, with the goal to get the oldest card I can get.

Number of trades completed: 33
Unique trading partners: 24

Number of cards mailed out: 89
Year of oldest card mailed out: 1956

Number of cards received: 232
Year of oldest card received: 1938

Update #30

Lots of new vintage has been added, including some Hall of Famers and a nice lot of 1965 Topps! As always, I'm looking for trade partners. The idea here is to keep trading for cards older than what I send out! Make me an offer for any of these!
