I would be willing to send all of my extra 1988 Score cards if anyone would like them. All I ask is that you just pay for some of the postage.

No need to trade, I would just like to pass along cards to someone who might need them.

Send me an email if your interested, otherwise they are going to Goodwill

Thanks

I like the idea of Goodwill.  It may give younger children a chance to acquire some cards they can enjoy and any money raised goes to charities in your area supported by Goodwill.

I dumped a complete factory set with the magic motion inserts cards in a stadium parking lot a few years ago, thinking some kids might find some of them and start collecting.  Shipping would cost more than this set is worth.  It may be better served as a firestarter log for lighting charcoal.

I am starting to think that as well.

How far back would you go? I am going to dump from 91 and 90 cards from all of the manufactures. 

No point in keeping them if nobody will take them. Right?

A few years back, I unloaded a lot of doubles from 1989-90-91.   Simple matter of I needed more space.   If everyone keeps doing this, pretty soon that 1990 Donruss #403, Cecilio Guante, card will quadruple in value, up to four cents.

NJDevil, that is very true. But the way I look at it their has to be some guys out there that are willing to take them. All of us old times (in our 40's) can't hoard them forever.

 Oh I wish was in my 40s....or 50s.....or even a couple years younger.     I offered them for free to two buddies who are dealers,  they politely declined.   Eventually had a yard sale and gave them away to anyone who wanted them, mainly kids.

Well, I'm looking for some cards from that era.. Still wanting to put the Topps sets together for 1988-1989. (almost have 87 done yay!!) Otherwise it's Jays, Expos, and Canadian born players..

I would be interested in any STL Cardinals cards I don't have yet. A quick glance shows me that there are 10 from the base set that I still need. There are other players I collect that didn't play for STL that I might need too. Is this just about the base cards? There are many of the inserts and Traded cards that I need too. PM me and we'll work something out.

I guess I can't count myself as an old-timer by your reasoning (at least not yet)! I have been collecting for over 30 years, but I'm still a couple years away from 40 years old. LMK if I can take some cards off your hands that I still need!

Topps baseball would be a different story.  3 complete sets will fit nicely into a priority box for about $12.00.  I might pay shipping for that.
