Stopped building sets in 09 and now have stopped chasing SFGiants/49ers in 2019. But still have lots of wants. Due to a generous divorce court had to return to work, so trading is still important to me but now pulling and mailing can only be done on tuesday and wednesday

I trade cards to build baseball, hockey and some miscellaneous sports / non-sport sets. I also PC Felipe Alou, Derek Aucoin, Steve Begin, Jennifer Botterill, Kevin Dineen, Laurent Duvernay-Tardif, Bob Kudelski, Manon Rheaume, Gabriela Sabatini and P.J. Stock as well. I do not buy cards. I also have a sweet spot for oddball / food issue / regional sets. New cards are regularly added to my FT/S list and all the cards I list here are NRMT or EX unless specified and I expect the same of you.

I don't collect micro-variations (dots, stars, copyright marks, holograms, printing plate codes...), they're not fun to search and I dislike the incessant frequency with which new ones are added. Seriously, what's the point if you gotta need to use a magnifier glass to check out if there's a dot on the back of a 1991 Fleer? However, I do all my best to check all my cards and to keep my lists up to date, but please ask me first, if micro-variations matter to you. The site really needs some way of opting out of micro-variations (just a default / any var. / unverified option for each card).

Besides helping to complete our collections one step closer each time, the opportunity would be nice to have traded with all the states, provinces and territories of North America. On this site only, I traded with members in 46 states, D.C., 9 provinces, N.W.T. and overseas. I can't wait to have a trade in Alaska, Delaware, North Dakota, Wyoming, Manitoba, Nunavut and Yukon. However, if you don't live in the above jurisdictions, you're still more than welcome to trade with me. No trade to Russia, Belarus and Iran.

I'm an easy going, helpful and patient guy, but here's now my turn to announce that my NO TRADE LIST is growing due to an increased lack of civility on the forums and the full site. If (1) you nitpick and/or always have an opinion on anything and/or act like you own the site and you're not Admin or (2) you do not respond to counters or decline without expressing a reason or don't PM me to ask more time after several days of wait or (3) you send me ridiculous off-balanced offers or (4) you accept the trade and you can't mail your cards in a timely manner or you send me loose or severly damaged cards or (5) have a brand new (empty) account without info / feedback and ask for valuable cards or (6) you clearly didn't read my profile (ask first, at least) and ask me to buy your cards, then chances are that you just won a place on my NO TRADE LIST regardless of how much I may want what you have.

I am fine with shipping cards in single or multiple PWEs, if the cards are properly packaged. Also, I don't mind large or small transactions, but I currently prefer trades with 10 to 20 cards going each way or at least that the cards carry more value than the postage. I am working 12 hour shifts, but I always try to ship the same or the next business day. Just remember that Canada Post doesn't pick up or deliver on Saturday and Sunday.

International shipping is very easy, but it costs more for BOTH traders (not just from the U.S.). Here are some tips to save on shipping costs to Canada: use PWEs (Plain White Envelopes) and avoid bubble envelopes, plastic boxes and big stacks of cards. Ship as flat as you can (cut 9 pocket pages in 3 rows and insert 4-5 cards in each pocket). The more it looks like a greeting card or documents mailed in a regular letter instead of a package, the more it tends to be cheaper to ship. Current U.S. to Canada first class postage rate (up to 2 oz) is $1.40 and if non-machinable, $1.79. If you don't have Global Forever stamps handy, three regular Forever stamps work as well. There's also no need to pay $14.85 for shipping with international tracking, because it is just too expensive, it will be way slower to arrive and Canada Post won't track your postal item anyway. Overall, postal service tends to be slower in Canada and at times a bit harder to predict, but it is as reliable as in the U. S.. Lastly, no cross-border shipping by Fedex or UPS: they charge $40.00+ custom brokerage on each and every package they handle no matter if it is duty free or not.

A.S.

Cincinnati Bengals, 2010 Score master set, and any card that highlights a game the Steelers lose.

Main collecting goal is to compile a complete set of the 1969 Bengals Tresler Comets. 

I'm not able to check in on here as often as I used to, but I promise I will eventually respond to each message/offer. I've given a friend access to my cards for inventory purposes, but as he's not handling my trades, please don't think I'm ignoring you if my most recent login has occurred since you sent your message.

Any and all Braves cards from 1954 - Present (RIP Hank Aaron).

I have decided to scale back from trying to collect every Braves card ever made and concentrate on the sets I like. Lately it seems to be next to impossible to collect team sets since there are so many inserts, VAR, SP, and just all to many brands. Topps has once again turned collecting into $$$ for them by making so many different brands. The cost to collect is getting to be very expensive and making me question the hobby again. I still plan on trading and looking for the cards I am still missing.

Willing to trade just about anything for Braves cards......

I have been trying to do the impossible and collect the entire 2016 Topps and Update Sets. Any help would be appreciated!

Dodgers, Yankees, Steve Garvey, Lou Gehrig...

Please NOTE:  Will only trade my 1957 Topps for 1957 Topps on wantlist.  Pretty negotiable on the rest.

Canadian traders please message first...  ty

Phillies and Yankees

If there is a Phillies card I do not have, I want it. :) 

My Main Collections :  Topps All-Star Rookie Trophy cards ///  KC Royals  ///  GB Packers  ///  Vintage Baseball  ///

TRADES: Modern Cards (1983 - Present) - Please offer NM or better - no ding corners / should have sharp corners and edges / no creases.  Mine will be the same, unless noted.               Vintage Cards (prior to 1983) - Let me know condition.   All reasonable trade offers considered.  (Sorry, no international trades accepted at this time)

To Purchase Cards from me:  Check out my store at buysportscards.com (BSC), just click link below.  You can also still check out my webstore and ebay links below - all reasonable offers considered.

12/4/2023 - Updated my PC lists, so there will be a mass of Jackie Robinson, Roberto Clemente & Corbin Burnes cards available for sale/trade here soon.  As I mention below, my want list is quite narrow, so I am more than willing to sell cards if we don't match up for a trade.  

Came across tcdb.com towards the end of 2019, and I have now completed over 1,500 transactions, with over 23,000 cards changing hands!  Love everything about this site.  I have met so many cool people from all over the Country, and even a few from Canada and beyond. (Just completed a trade to Finland, as a matter of fact).

Stole this from another member, but......my goal is to have zero cards in my For Sale/Trade List.  So keep the proposals comin'!

(I know my Want List is relatively small, so I am certainly willing to Sell cards if we don't have enough matches to work out a trade)

My PC list is as follows (with TCDB rankings as of 2/9/2024):

NBA: Giannis (4), Dirk Nowitzki (4), and Tim Duncan (2).  

NFL: Sterling Sharpe (3), and Don Majkowski (2)

MLB: Robin Yount (7), Tony Gwynn (6), Hal Morris (3), Mark Grace (7), Pat Listach (1) and Mark Langston (1)

Golf: Rickie Fowler (2)  & Joel Dahmen (2)

WWE: Lita (3)

UFC: Conor McGregor (4)

Non-Sport: Eddie Vedder, Judah Friedlander, Big Jay Oakerson, The Brothers Osborne (TJ & John), Rob Riggle, Bert Kreischer, Tom Segura, Charlie Berens, Post Malone and Brody Stevens

Although I currently live in Florida, I was born in Milwaukee.....hence my obsession with Wisconsin sports teams.  Ha.

Please check out my For Sale/Trade list, and feel free to message me or send me trade proposals any time.....let's see what we can get done!  (I don't necessarily trade based on "book value", but rather the value to me, so please feel free to counter if I propose a trade that you feel is unfair.  I also have no rules about "insert for insert" or any of that nonsense, so don't be shy to shoot me a proposal)  

Boston Red Sox Only!!! 

Team collector, always looking for other team collectors that are currently buying new boxes to trade with.

High Priority------SP or SSP's I don't have.  Anything Rafael Devers RC.

Always looking for inserts and parallels that I don't have, even cards that I haven't put on my wantlist.

Sometimes I travel out of state, so please be patient when you offer me a trade. Thanks!

Trading: PWE shipping, will use multiple envelopes if needed. 

My collection is one that sparks joy to me. I have no rhythm or reason to it, each card brought joy to me and so it was added to the collection. My want list is cards that spark joy for me. My Want List is being re added to and will grow greatly over the next few weeks/months.  

This hobby is my saving grace! I found it as a way to help my anxiety and the friendships I have made in this hobby are amazing! I truly appreciate everyone in this hobby!

I look forward to doing lots of trades here and getting these cards in your mailbox and collection where they belong!

One of my binder projects is a Topps Twins project and am mainly needing the vintage now, I am happy to add cards with character aka poor condition for the vintage cards. This project is to tell the story of the decades and what better way than to have character to the cards. That's for the vintage, I don't want 1990s cards that are rounded edges and ripped up. 

My collection is valued at how much I'm smiling at the end of the day :) 

Open to trades or sales of my cards, but please look up the values on Beckett or Sportlots before you propose a trade to me. I will decline offers that are heavily weighted in your favor. If they are close I'm more likely to accept, or at least counter. I prefer larger trades versus smaller ones in order to offset the time and cost required to find the cards and ship them.

I started on a great endeavor at the beginning of the pandemic to complete Topps baseball sets from 1975 to 1985. I got about halfway through it and got burnt out on it. I'm going through my wantlists now to flip the uncompleted sets (1982, 78, 77, 76, and 75) to my 'For Sale/Trade' list

I will send most trades through Plain White Envelope (PWE), but for larger trades I'll send packages instead. Please let me know if you would prefer a different shipping arrangement when proposing a trade.

4/13/24 TRYING TO GET BACK INTO TRADING AGAIN. MOVING SLOW, BUT MOVING.

2024 IS MY 56TH YEAR OF COLLECTING, AND MY 10TH YEAR ON TCDB.

TOP PRIORITIES:

1. 2024 TOPPS BASEBALL SERIES 2 AND UPDATE

2. 2024 TOPPS HERITAGE

3. 2023 TOPPS UPDATE

I PREFER TO TRADE WITH JUST USA TRADERS AT THIS TIME. I WORK ON TRADES AS RECIEVED, AND ATTEMPT TO CONTACT EACH POTENTIAL TRADER TO LET THEM KNOW WHAT PHASE THEIR TRADE IS IN.

SO, THANKS FOR YOUR PATIENCE, TRADING IS OPEN.

I GUESS I NEED TO ADD THE FOLLOWING DISCLAIMER....I HAVE SOME HOF CARDS, AND SOME CARDS FROM THE 60'S AND 70'S. I PREFER TO TRADE THOSE CARDS FOR SIMILAR TYPE NEEDS. I PROBABLY WILL NOT TRADE HOF OR OLDER CARDS FOR NEWER GYPSY QUEENS AND ARCHIVE OR HOCKEY CARDS. SO, IF I TURN DOWN YOUR TRADE, PLEASE DON'T TAKE IT PERSONALLY.I AM PASSING ON CANADA TRADES AT THIS TIME. IT COSTS TOO MUCH AND THE DELAYS IN RECIEVING THE ITEMS IS TOO LONG. SORRY, NOTHING PERSONAL.

***I ONCE AGAIN HAVE A BUNCH OF TOP LOADERS AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE OR TRADE.  IF YOU NEED SOME, HIT ME UP***

Now the #1 collector of Ryan Klesko cards on TCDB!  With more to come!

PC: 

High priority: Ryan Klesko, Dale Murphy, Dave Winfield, Dominique Wilkins, Kenyon Yovan, Michael Conforto, Adley Rutschman, Nick Madrigal, Trevor Larnach, Steven Kwan, Cadyn Grenier, Drew Rasmussen, Gary Payton II, Jacob Melton, Travis Bazzana, Trent Caraway, Gavin Turley, Garret Forrester, Will Frisch, Cooper Hjerpe, Justin Boyd, Mitch Canham, Kevin Abel, Nahshon or Rezjohn Wright, Terry Baker, Christian Chamberlain, Gary Payton, Ethan Thompson, Darwin Barney, Damien Martinez, Jam Griffin, Jake Luton, Jermar Jefferson, Hamilcar Rashed Jr, Luke Musgrave, Anthony Gould, Kitan Oladapo, A.C Green "In the Name" letter cards, Jade Carey.

Lower priority: Junior Seau, some Bo Jackson, Eric Lindros, Jordan Poyer, Mike Hass, TJ Houshmandzadeh, Jacoby Ellsbury, Steven Jackson, Nick Barnett, Matt Moore, Ochocinco/Chad Johnson, Sean Mannion, Johnny Hekker, Sam Gaviglio, Matt Boyd, any Oregon State alum/player in any sport (male or female).

PLEASE SEND TRADE OFFERS.  It's my favorite part of the hobby.  Always willing to negotiate a good deal for both sides.  One card, or 10+ cards.  I'm fine with any size.  USA & Canada only, unless the card is significant enough to me to ship overseas.

I do NOT collect/keep any other cards of any other players/teams.  If the card isn't a unique card to me of one of my guys above, it's not something I will keep.  I don't want duplicates either.  I'll trade it or sell it if it's something I think I can move; otherwise, no thanks.  But I DO want any card of any of my PC guys if I don't already have it.  My trade/sell and want/wish lists are updated, so if it's not on those lists, it's highly unlikely that I'm interested in it, or I already own it.

Fan of: all OSU sports, Braves, Red Sox, Blazers, Chargers, Flyers, Timbers, Tottenham FC.

Goal for VINTAGE ONLY CARDS (condition NOT very important...just no rips/tears, no writing on the front...some creases ok...not really concerned with how the back looks): Hank Aaron (preferably in a Milwaukie uniform, but not required), Mickey Mantle pre-1969 (earlier the better), Babe Ruth any vintage year, Joe DiMaggio any year, Lou Gehrig any year, Ted Williams pre-1955, Jackie Robinson any year, Shoeless Joe any year, Jimmie Foxx any year, Satchel Paige any year, and Stan Musial pre-1960.  For basketball, would like a Alcindor while in Milwaukie, early Doctor J, Oscar, early Magic/Bird, Bill Russell, David Thompson, Cousy, Mikan, Moses & maybe a couple others.  Prefer to stay as cheap as possible, but for the right card might go a little higher...obviously Mantle/Ruth/Joe D/Wilt and those types would be more.  Again, condition I know won't be great at these prices.  I now have a Hank, Mantle, Jackie, Clemente, Yogi, Bob Gibson, Ernie Banks, Sandy Koufax, Mays, Jerry West, Wilt, Alcindor, Maravich and Gervin at these levels, and a couple of Ted Williams, that I'm very happy with.  But the more the merrier if the price is right!

• I will typically send cards via PWE unless the quantity is above 20 and then I will send BMWT.  If you wish a smaller trade to be sent BMWT, please let me know & adjust the trade accordingly.

VERY willing to trade/negotiate.  I live to  trade...send me ALL trade requests!  Would prefer trades to purchases, although I know my PC is pretty limited in the grand scheme of things.  Just got back to the hobby in 2020 after approx 30 years out of it, and about 20 years after selling off 99% of it to pay for our wedding.  I forgot how much I loved it!

Finally rid of the crutches and now just a cane, should be walking on my own soon.

Still a little slow in replying cause life is busy but always looking for another trade! 

Thank You to all that helped out with my 2021 and 2022 Bowman sets, I just put the last card in my binders and I always look forward to that feeling. Just finished 2022 and really appreciate all the help, only 1 Invicta left for 2023 Bowman...getting close and any help greatly appreciated! I hope to get this finished before 24 comes out. 

Any help on 21/22/23 Topps Chrome (and Sepias)/Chrome Update(and purples), 2021 Topps/Topps Update, 2021& 2022 Panini Chronicles Baseball would be greatly appreciated. 

Any help with 2020 Chronicles FB, 2020 Select FB would be great and hoping to fill any other holes in my binders. Always looking for Julio Rodriguez, and Darrell Taylor cards to keep those collections going and keep my #1 spot, and after losing a binder of about 200 Griffey cards I had collected as a kid will always look to trade for one that I don't have. 

Favorites:

Baseball: Ken Griffey Jr (in a Mariners jersey preferably), Julio Rodriguez (as of 6/9/22 I am #1 collector on the site), Randy Johnson, Kyle Lewis, Ronald Acuna Jr, Logan Gilbert, Cal Raleigh, Bryce Miller, Fernando Tatis Jr, Kyle Seager, Jarred Kelenic, but love all my Mariners!

Football: DK Metcalf, Darrell Taylor (as of 4/6/23 I am #1 collector on the site), Kam Chancellor, Justin Herbert, Tyler Lockett, but love all my Hawks!

If you have cards of these sets/players that I don't have assume they are on my wantlist. So close on the 2021 Bowman Baseball and 2020 Chronicles Football. Any help on these two sets is greatly appreciated and thank you to those that have helped out so far!

Baseball sets I am trying to fill first: 2022 Bowman (so close and any help with the top 100 would be appreciated), 2023 Bowman Lunar Glow Refractors (65 or so left), 2021/2022 Chronicles (excited to try and finish them) , 2021 Select, 2021 Diamond Kings, 2021 Stadium Club.

Football sets I am trying to fill first: 2020 Chronicles, 2020 Select, 2020 Optic, 2021 Absolute Retail, 2021 Prizm Draft Picks, 2021 Chronicles Draft Picks.

I collect mainly Baseball/Football but have a little Basketball, Hockey, and Soccer that I have opened up and added to this site for trade purposes.  

Slowly but surely I am getting my collection uploaded and at some point would love to trade all of my doubles for cards that fill my sets and help others do the same in the process.

Have been collecting baseball since the 80s, but have begun in recent years to also focus on Football and Basketball.   Also a big Soccer and F1 fan, and looking to build those sets, although price has made that tricky recently.

Primarily interested in building sets, and working on going for at least one complete flagship set from 1980-2020 in all sports.

Love to trade and I'm always interested in hearing offers.  I don't stress or worry much about value in trades, I collect and build sets, so if it's something I need and the card totals/values are in the ballpark I'll accept.   Vintage/Modern trades are fine if they're fair.    I'm good with single card trades, or trades of 100s of cards.  Anything to help us both.

I'm still working on adding my for sale and trade list, primarily in baseball 1980 - 2000, and some football in 1978 - 1986.  I'll hopefully have lots of that updated soon.

My only PC player is Kevin Seitzer and that's it.   Looking to eventually have all of his cards, so if you have any old 80s-90s junk and want to build a trade around his cards, send over an offer. 

Favorite Teams: 

MLB
- Chicago White Sox
- Cincinnati Reds

NFL
- Cincinnati Bengals

Hockey
- Detroit Red Wings

MLS
- Columbus Crew

NBA
- Cleveland Cavs

Europe
- Celtic F.C.
 

Reds and Bengals team sets,  Walker Buehler and Peyton Burdick. Slowly working on 50's and 60's Reds pretty much any condition. 

Heritage SP for SP. Vintage for Vintage....mostly....

I just obtained a few hundred 1975 and 1976 Topps baseball that I added to my FS/T. I didn't list condition for most. Just ask about condition if you're interested in any. 

I have a small collection listed DL (for sale/trade). These are well loved, mostly vintage, for any trader who isn't concerned about condition. If you are interested in any, just ask, and I will move to my FS/T. I didn't want to put these on my normal FS/T list for obvious reasons, although there are a few that are not in too bad of shape. 

The late '70's football that I have for trade have been well taken care of. The cards that I have conditions listed are because of more extreme centering issues.

I try to keep my fs/t list accurate incl. Donruss, Fleer, Upper Deck etc.(dots, asterisks, etc.)  If that's important to you, just ask me to verify the variation. 

I like big trades, and I like small trades, even if it's not worth the postage. For me it's all about completing the team or set or whatever. It's still better than buying a 50 cent card on eBay for $1+s/h.

Trading on pause while on vacation

Still working on completing Topps Baseball sets 1960,1969, and 1970.   I have complete sets from 1971 to 1981 But I need to upgrade some as I sort through them.Trying to complete Reds team sets from any year, have most of the 70s covered and am working backwards.  Have a good start on the 60s.  Partial Reds sets from 1980-2020 are sitting in boxes waiting to be sorted.  I have alot of reds duplicates including specials/inserts for former reds stars (Bench, Morgan, etc,)

Also working on modern base sets and some inserts as they catch my interest.

Still working on updating my collection in the database.

Always up for a trade but also willing to buy and sell. My wantlist is still very much a work in progress and really only reflects my highest priority wants. If there is something you want from me and you don't have any matches with my wantlist please feel free to message me and I will try my best to find something we can make work, vintage commons in good shape are always useful.

Listing the condition of the cards in my for sale/trade list is not something I plan on doing as I prefer to send pictures and let people judge for themselves due to the subjective nature of card grading. The vast majority of my vintage traders are EX or better with no creases and solid Cornings but this varies from set to set and the older the card the more likely it is that it is one that fell short of my personal collecting goals and thus may have more serious flaws. Please let me know of any sensitivities you may have at the beginning of the transaction so we can ensure both parties are ultimately satisfied. 

I would like to receive pictures of incoming cards for every vintage trade.

My main focus is vintage set building and finishing my 1970's run, for those sets I am only looking for cards that are EX-MT or better. For 60's sets and later I will generally aiming for EX or better, for PC players and oddballs I am most likely willing to accept any condition. I also collect Cuban items and PC the guys listed below:

Keith Hernandez

Gary Carter

Tom Seaver

Mike Piazza

Jerry Koosman

Gil Hodges

Jon Matlack

Elston Howard

Minnie Minoso

Tony Oliva

Larry Doby

Luke Easter

Earl Battey

Monte Irvin

Casey Stengel

Bill Freehan

Andrew McCutchen

Daniel Murphy

Always looking for a good trade. Let me know if I have anything on your Want list. 

Curating a collection of basketball cards with referees in the background by 1) singling out and cataloging each card from each base and insert set with a referee's face visible, 2) acquiring two base copies (or one base and one parallel, if available) of each, and 3) identifying each referee (or official scorer).

Love P.W.E. trades. ***Warning*** am a ssslllooowww processor and transactions may take a long time because most card work happens over the weekend.

Happy collecting :)

- Randy

PS Also collecting Magic Johnson and Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis.

Detroit Tigers

looking to complete a few sets via trades on here. willing to sell also. 

90's Baseball is the best era of baseball I have lived through, period!!

Priority of my want lists:
1 - Any and all Phillies cards (almost anything not in my collection is a "want")
2 - Various set ventures (baseball - 1972 Topps, 2016 Topps Chrome, Archives, Heritage sets, then hockey sets)
3 - Baseball HOFers (1980s)
4 - Baseball HOFers (1970s)
5 - Baseball HOFers (1990s)
6 - Baseball HOFers (other decades)

If there are any other categories of want lists, they would fall between set completion and HOFers.

I added approx. 90,000 cards available for trade in early 2023.

[The next section has been updated on 3/4/2024]

Note: Currently transactions are ON.

While I have transaction requests turned on, trade proposals will be handled in the order in which they are received. I am continuing to take it slow because I don't have the time or patience to take on too many trades at once. Additionally, I have found that it makes it easier on both sides because the cards are known to be available. And please, when we do trade, please make it so that the postage to/from your location to mine makes a trade worthwhile for both of us. Thank you.

Please also note that I am very much open to selling in addition to trading. If you see stuff you want and don't have anything in return, that's okay. We'll work out a deal that will be fair for both of us, not just me (and not just you, please). (The listings over at the SwamiLee account are in my possession and I am also selling those. The only sport left there is baseball.)

Thanks for reading my profile. I enjoy trading cards I don't need for those that I do. I've been in this hobby for many years (I remember opening 1955 Bowman packs at our local candy store)! I usually don't pull my end before making a proposal; most times, I'm trying to get a feel for how doable it is, and it saves me from having to refile cards if things fizzle out or if I'm countered.  I will, however, (usually) pull before accepting a trade.  Please counter, if need be!  Communication is key to good trading!   I have some physical limitations..it may take me a bit to pull cards so your patience is appreciated!  

1.  My top priority is completing sets.  

2.  Recent Phillies teamsets and inserts.  I do multiple teamsets to help local Philthies Phans!

3. Older Phillies teamset needs..all brands.

As mentioned, I love to trade, will reluctantly sell ... cheap, if we cannot swap!  PLMK what I have that you can't live without!  Phillies is my team, through thick and (mostly) thin!  PWE trades are great and assumed unless we agree otherwise - bubbles used if worth the shipping costs!  Slowing down though - the old body won't let me hoss those 5000 count boxes too much - thanks in advance for your patience with me!!
