Buy/Sell/Trade Forum

I've never done a trade on this site before.  So kind of feeling out how it works using a strange surplus of Nomar (pronounced Nomah by people who care) I got from buying a collection recently.  I went to Georgia Tech, so I like Nomar but not this much...  

I collect anything old, and anything Braves.  I just started collecting again after a 20 year break now that my son is old enough to collect with me.  So I want to re-iterate, I'm pretty open and have no idea what I am doing with the trading system on the site.  So I ask for some patience I'll probably ask questions.  

Sidenote, loving this site, and probably would not be getting back into collecting without it.

I'm a Nomar collector. Check my available Braves and we'll see if we can hook up sometime.

Cool, question.  Do most members stick typically to their wantlist or are proposals open ended?  So it looks like none of my Nomar's are on your wantlist, do most members frown on random proposals?  

My want list is fluid, so if I don't have it in my collection I'm interested. 

I'll look at your list shortly and work up a want list based on that. 

Welcome to the site community fraternity.  Welcome.  You're going to love it here.  Everybody is different with regard to their wants and for sale/trade (FST or FS/T) lists.  Me personally, I stick pretty tightly to mine because I don't want everything.  I'm not trading this month and really not supposed to be posting (self-imposed, much needed break) - even the Commish is eager for me to return to trading, and trust I will, J.  Add me as a friend and in the meantime someone on here (the Commish found you; you are in good hands) will show you the ropes.  I collect entire sets, not just teams or players, so the degree of compatability will show itself, but I'll bet I have some Braves I'd be willing to jettison.  Hit me up next month and we'll do an easy one.

I'm a Nomar collector myself. Not sure if all my Nomar's are on my wantlist, but if you have 'em I'm interested. Caveat, I'm out of town until Friday night so can't do anything with trades yet. Will try to ensure my FS/T is accurate with him also.

Side note, almost same thing. I left the hobby 15+ years ago. A couple years ago my son was old enough/slightly interested and I found this site. Hung in the shoadows for a few months, but no regrets since diving back in.

that's cool, I'm just trying to figure out the trading system, so it will take me some time anyway.  Just proposed some to the sportzcommish, a weird trade where I am looking for a bunch of commons, but there are plenty more Nomars to trade.  I'll take it slow.  

Slow is probably best at first. I'm pretty sure that is how everyone started on here, nice and easy. The first few trades we relatively simple until the feet got wet then dive headlong in. Once you get a handle on the tools and how everything links together it'll be clockwork. Biggest thing is to communicate with the trade partner and ask questions when unsure. Everyone on here is ready to help.
