you could always post a comment on your profile ahead of the 1 Million cards line to state your trade status/readiness

That is a good idea Mark. Probably in many cases the database is sending out matches and offers are being put together by members who aren't coming in here and reading this thread.

OK, I posted my TRADES as a link to that page. Not sure if this will work, but why not try.

Bob - That link takes me to my in-progress trades, not yours.

How about Create a List and add trade progress and trade offers? Then refer members to the user lists. A little around about, but can't think of anything else. ~Bob~

Wow, sounds like a trade with Spaz is like going to the DMV, pick a number and wait. Guess I am missing something. You list 21k cards for sale/trade and you have to turn people away because they are overwhelming you with offers?

21K is only the tip of the iceberg, that's not even 1 wall of 1 room . Overwhelming, that's it!!! I like to be fair with everybody. Thought keeping an updated list would give all trades viewable access. And nope, spaz and I aren't trading, just comparing notes. Now I have to go find a cheap Roberto Clemente for my g-son's school report, should be fun.

My son had a report a couple years back - there's a great one in 1987 Topps 'Turn Back The Clock' subset! :)

That made me laugh pretty good. I remember the days of out-the-door lines at the DMV, but in NC now you only have to go to the DMV to register a new car (or new to you). Everything else can be done online.
As for cards, the overwhelming part was that I took a break from trading to get those 21,000 cards listed. I was tired of getting offers for 3-4 cards that I added that day, every day. That's why I made this thread. I replied to every single person who sent an offer. The impatient ones would withdraw their offers. The patient traders would update weekly or withdraw and send a new updated offer every once in a while. But I still keep getting offers on a regular basis. I need to keep every trader in order and get them cleared out to guarantee that I don't try to trade the same thing twice when I only have one of them.
Once I accept a trade, I print it out. Then I have a running list of trades and can quickly make sure that cards other traders want aren't gone already and that I haven't already added cards they offer to me. I make a note on each trade paper if I have extra copies available of any card as I pull them to pack up.
I can't do 12 trades all at once, especially when some of them are for hundreds of cards! I don't see how anyone could keep up with that many at once.

NO PWE's EVER!!! PLZ PM me 1st before sending any offer. ONLY selling cards as of March 2024. No trades or purchases right now. _______________________________________________________________________ Largest total PC card collections by Team, then Athlete (as of 3/22/24): STL Cardinals (MLB) - 8810; Carolina Panthers - 2888; GB Packers - 1790+ cards Mark Martin (NASCAR) - 2038 cards; Jimmie Johnson (NASCAR) - 1875 cards; Jeff Gordon (NASCAR) - 1594; Ricky Rudd (NASCAR) - 839; Ozzie Smith (MLB) - 707
