Mine would be my first with Billy Kinglsey. He walked me through it step by step. I dont trade much since I dont have much to trade. But it is something that I do enjoy doing. Thanks again Billy.

I think my most memorable trade was with twprkj. I received an auto of Ammon Olsen, who played QB for both of my alma maters (BYU before transferring to Southern Utah). He had actually heard of Olsen and asked what my interest was. It turned out that twprkj was also a BYU alum, from the BYU-Idaho campus. It was a cool connection to make.

I picked up a 1985 Kodak San Diego Chargers #NNO Derrie Nelson ffrom PSAbolts a few years back. I have been looking for one of his cards from 1987 when I find out he had cards. He was in the 8th grade when I was a senior. He played 8 man football in high school.

Mine was a rather small one but I traded a 1983 Mike Singletary and Jim McMahon to AwgyDawgy for a Score Aaron Rodgers rookie. I As a Packer fan it was great to be able to trade for that card. A much smaller trade than most have had for their most memorable.

Love to hear about an 8 man player being successful. Our school went to 8 man a few years ago and my son just graduated last year and played both 11 man and then 8 man football in his high school days.

Most memorable trade, of the four really good trades that I made on TCDB, has to be my FIRST Trade on TCDB, with Halos17 that was completed in February of this year. We had some nice communication, while helping each other out in completing the 2018 Topps Big League Set. Plus, this help set the stage for my transition towards completing some 1970's sets and our pending move down here to Florida. This helped me move in a better direction, by staying more focused in my collecting habits, which has really helped out mucho in maintaining well Our Budget, with a VERY fixed income. This TCDB has truly been a most wonderful Community of Comrade Sports Trading Card Collectors!!
Yours in the Hobby - Felix

Great stories so far, everyone. Keep 'em coming!
I'm still trying to figure out which of my trades may have been most memorable. Quite a few good ones to choose from.

Last year, it took 8 weeks for a PWE to get from (near) Toronto to California. I know, some will say because of the border crossing, but this summer, an 800-ct box got to someone in TX in 3 days crossing the same border. As it turned out, the PWE spent about a four to six week holiday in TX (I believe it was Houston). Patience is all I can say.
