hoping to complete base sets for all Topps Baseball from 1970 to present. also collecting 2019 - present Archives and update.

Currently focusing on completely: 1973 base set, 2023 WBC, 2019, 2020 & 2022 archives - 2020 turkey Red. I have Heritage on wants but that is filler for me - 

Value & tradng philosophy: honestly I don't put a lot of effort into card values. I feel the cards I trade in are pretty low end. I use the TCDB values as a general guide and I understand the difference between vintage, wax and modern. Commons - HOF and inserts so I make trade offers accordingly. At the end of the day there's cards we want and cards we want to trade so let's make a deal. I'm open to any trade across years, base to parallel, inserts whatever! 

I would appreciate a response if a make an offer, please let me know issues with trade offers- let's work it out. 

im mostly interested in set building, so if you want an insert or parallel not on my sale list don't hesitate to make an offer.

Prefer: PWE 18 cards  or less. Basically I don't like dealing with post office workers. I will consider all offers, even bigger ones. I will respond to all offers and correspondence quickly unless traveling. I try to turn off trades if away for more than a few days. 

Im pretty easy to deal with, I love trading and will work with you with any concerns. 
 

   And  Goooooo Tigers!!!!!

Current status,  legend: Year - % complete  

1970-15% 1971-22% 1972-7%  1973-72% 1974 thru 1978 1979-41% 1980-88% 1981 thru 2023

Collecting all Topps Baseball base sets from 1956 to 2020. 

If I have something on my For Sale/Trade list that you need and you have nothing to trade me, I am more than willing to sell most cards on my FS/T list at a very reasonable price...especially to fellow set collectors!

VAR's: If it's important to you to get a specific variation in a trade, please let me know so I can be sure I have the correct one for you.

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.

I am not accepting any trades at this time.  I am in a position that I feel I need to begin selling off my collection. I am moving towards selling off my whole collection but I am only posting the higher value cards right now.  If you see something you like, whether its in a collection or on my FS&T list, feel free to make me an offer.  For most commons, I am asking for $0.18 per card, which is the Sportlots minimum price.  I will leave the rest of my profile as is just in case something changes and I don't need to sell everything off.

If you accept an offer from me, I will strive to ship within 24 hours.  I will also try to respond to offers within 48 hours and, if it will take longer than that to pull the cards, I will do my best message you within 48 hours.

I have done my best to list the conditions per the PSA grading scale if I consider them less than EX-MT.  I do not profess to be proficient at grading.  If I think a card is less than EX-MT and it is not marked as such, I will do my best to let you know in the message.

Thank you for taking a look.

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!

This site has greatly increased my collecting interest. I'm looking in building Pre-1980 Baseball Sets and my PC's of Johnny Bench, Tony Perez & Dave Concepcion. I am now starting to build interest in non-sports cards as well. I am open to trade most cards not part of any set I am trying to complete.

My current set priorities are: updated 4/22/2024:

1950's & 1960's Reds Team sets

1965 Philadelphia War (need the checklist)

1972 Topps (need 6 cards)

2019 Topps Chrome (need 3 cards)

2020 A&G Base Mini set (need 4 cards)

2021 A&G Base Mini set (need 6 cards)

2010 Allen Ginter (need 3 cards)

2009 Allen Ginter (need 4 cards)

2012 Allen Ginter (need 28 cards)

2008 Upper Deck Masterpiece

2011 Topps Update Kimball Champions (need 2 cards)

All A&G inserts and mini cards

PLEASE READ BEFORE SENDING A TRADE OFFER:

>>> I DO NOT BUY OR SELL ON TCDB. I ONLY TRADE, AND I WILL NOT TRADE ANYTHING OUT OF MY PC. <<<

I will gladly trade PWE worldwide with almost anyone. I will only mail about 18-21 cards per #10 envelope domestically (with a few exceptions), and 12-18 cards per #10 envelope internationally. I've found that sending about 12 cards per envelope is ideal for international trades. For large amounts of cards (>36) with U.S. traders, I can do either PWE or bubble mailer, as long as both parties agree on the method of shipping.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I want to complete special issue and insert baseball and hockey sets that I've been working on, and to work on my PCs of Jerome Bettis, Martin Brodeur, Ilya Kovalchuk, Bernie Williams, Vladimir Guerrero, and Garrett Anderson.

SPECIAL PROJECTS: An Alec Mills collection (he played for my high school and he helped coach my son some one season); a collection of players from the four major American sports with the last name Davidson and its variations; a collection of baseball, basketball, and football RCs of former Southern Illinois Salukis. I am always wanting RCs of former Tennessee Volunteers football players, whether in a Vols uniform or a pro uniform.

Hi all,

Super happy to have found this site! I'm looking to clear up some space and get some value out of my collection.

Preference is for sale (not trade, unless you have some matches to my wantlist specifically).

I am based in a suburb of Vancouver, BC (home of the 2010 Winter Olympics) and happily ship pretty much wherever. I have shipped to Canada, US, UK, Australia, Norway, Germany and an FPO in Italy so far.

Thanks!
Darren

***I have stopped trading indefinitely.***

Will mail PWE for trade of 9 cards or less. I don't buy on TCDb. Only U.S. trades.

• Working on low to mid grade 1970 through 1972 complete Topps baseball sets, but I'll take any condition just to complete these sets. I'm focusing on these right now and I hope to trade as much for these as I can. I will buy if the price is right. I'm over halfway on 1970-1972 with HOF and High #'s remaining.

• Detroit Tigers Topps Team Sets, including SP (Complete 1958 to present)

• Detroit Lions Topps and Donruss post 2015 Team Sets, including SP (Complete 1956 to present)

I've been very blessed in my trades and transactions here on TCDB. Thank you to all. I will trade vintage for modern and vice versa as long as there is roughly equal value felt on both sides. I am a set builder and collecter. I do not speculate on my cards for future value. I do this for fun, not for profit. I will sell, but only to build a small bank of money to use for buying cards I can't trade for. I've traded hundreds of cards each way and I've done many 1 for 1 trades, so no trade is too big or small for me.

In packaging, I use painter's tape ONLY. I try to use a photo mailer for small trades of about a dozen or less.  I use #10 PWE for trades up to about 2 dozen cards and maybe 2 PWE for 4 dozen.  After 50 cards, I typically will use a bubble mailer with tracking.  If it is 200 or more cards, they will likely be in a box well padded.

NOTICE: I've decided to make a slight change my trading approach.   I really don't have any interest in doing these large "player collection" trades anymore.  I'm a set collector and all my traders are stored by set (in nearly 100 3,200 count boxes).  It sometimes takes me hours to pull cards where someone is only looking for certain players.  What's worse, I recently had a guy screw me on a trade after I pulled 120 random cards.   Going forward, I will be rejecting these types of trades.  I'm looking to help people complete their sets and vice versa.  Sorry, but I hope you understand.  Craig

I’ve been collecting cards for over 47 years and have over 503,000 unique cards in my main collection, including some nice vintage stuff.  I collect older cards of the four major sports but lately I've been expanding to some more recent sets.  I'm primarily a Set Builder and I’m looking for other like-minded set builders to trade with.   I’ve accumulated tons of extra cards that I would like to trade away with almost 250,000 cards in my current For Trade list.  Big trades don't bother me. I have a huge Want List, so hopefully you have something I need.  Feel free to make me an offer. 

For Canadian Traders: It's expensive for me to trade across the border.  Going forward I would like to limit cross border trades to two (2) PWEs. That's about 54 standard-size cards.  Thanks.

For Anyone Outside US/Canada: The increased postal rates have made it impossible for me to trade outside North America cheaply.  So going forward I will have to decline trades from outside US/Canada.  Sorry about that.

Update on Donruss/Leaf * Variations and Upper Deck Holo Variations:
I can't guaranty the junk wax era Donruss/Leaf cards and the UD holo variations are listed with the correct variation.  Going forward I will no longer check the variations on these cards.  If you want these cards regardless of the variations, feel free to request them in the trade.  However, If you want a specific variation of these cards, I'm no longer your guy - please don't put them in the trade request.  For all other cards that have variations, I will continue to check and make sure you get the correct one.

Note on Vintage Cards:
I have over 6,000 vintage cards listed for trade (I consider vintage to be 1977 or earlier).  For each card I've noted a condition grade and if you check closer, a note on each regarding any condition issues (be sure to select the correct one if multiple cards are shown).  Please note that I'm by no means a professional grader and if you're hyper-sensitive on card condition, please message me first and I'd be happy talk about it.  In exchange for these cards, I have three priorities:

• 1) similar vintage cards that I need (any sport)
• 2) inserts for my 90s sets that I need (any sport)
• 3) or non-junk era base cards that i need as a last resort (any sport)

Note on Card Condition: A card noted as Pr, Fr, Gd, or GdVg will have some obvious condition issues such as creasing, corner wear, or marks.  I would consider them place holders in a collection at best (I've listed them because some people do want place holders).  A VG card will usually be a clean card with some corner wear or a centering issue.  For me, VG would be the bare minimum for my personal collection.  EX will be nice sharp card and VgEx will be something just between VG and Ex, still a nice card with a small issue that prevents it from being EX.  NM in vintage is a tough find.

I just got back into the hobby in 2021 after a 20+ year absence. I collect sets over players or teams. My current number of trade matches seems pretty limited. My "official" want list is definitely my focus. However, I'd consider trades for the players and teams listed at the bottom if you don't have anything on my want lists.

I will sell anything on my for sale/trade list in lieu of a trade. I'll also consider trading cards in my collection of "Singles" if it's for a card on my want list. Individual cards in my collection of "Sets" are unavailable in trade although I do have 2 complete sets available for sale/trade. The "Pending" collection represents sets I may consider collecting at one time but not right now. I suppose if a deal is close, I may consider something from that list. 

I'm not opposed to larger trades. I'm open to anything if it's cost effective to do so. Keeping within the same card "class" probably makes the most sense - commons for commons, stars for stars, inserts for inserts, era for era, etc. Everything I'm interested in is '90s or later so I expect near-mint or better condition. You can expect that from me too unless otherwise noted.

I primarily collected basketball and that's mostly what I have available. However, I find myself open to collecting baseball cards and have listed some from that sport below too. I don't mind a cross-sport swap if you don't.

For small quantities, I plan to ship PWE unless requested to send differently. I do plan to add additional cardboard protection inside that PWE. For large quantities or high value, I'll ship in a bubble mailer with tracking. Pictures of anything you want from me are certainly available. Communication from both parties on the finer points of the transaction is key.

I get emails for all new messages so I will respond even if it appears that I haven't logged into the site in a while. However, I'm usually checking in at least a few times a week.

Players: Larry Johnson (Hornets), Michael Jordan (Bulls), Scottie Pippen (Bulls), Dennis Rodman (Bulls), Toni Kukoc (Bulls), Steve Kerr (Bulls), Anfernee Hardaway (Magic), Tim Duncan, Dirk Nowitzki, Steve Nash (Suns/Mavericks), David Robinson, Alonzo Mourning (Hornets), John Stockton, Grant Hill (Pistons), Glen Rice (Heat/Hornets), Damon Stoudamire (Raptors), Marcus Camby (Raptors), Michael Finley (Suns/Mavericks), Frank Thomas (White Sox), Mark Buehrle (White Sox), Paul Konerko (White Sox), Ray Durham (White Sox), Ryne Sandberg, Ken Griffey Jr. (Mariners), Greg Maddux (Braves), Roy Halladay

Teams: Chicago Bulls (Michael Jordan era through Derrick Rose era), Chicago White Sox ('90s or later)

Random: Cards with Michael Jordan on them that aren't his own (Jordan cameos) https://www.tcdb.com/List.cfm/lid/10873/Jordan-Cameos

FYI I'm not going to pull the cards then send an offer only to be rejected, never replied to or counter offer. If you want to do the trade, send me a message or accept but hold off on mailing till I pull mine. If I make a mistake I will do my best to make it right. 

Started collecting baseball cards in 1966. Stopped in 1971. Started again in 1987. Stopped again in 1994. Started to try to reduce the size of my collection when I joined this database. Not sure if I'm getting anywhere.

Like a lot of diiferent card types. If you look at my collections you will get an idea of what. Especially  like cards from before 1970 and oversize cards. Very flexible when it comes to condition.  

Favorite team: Cardinals

Favorite players: Albert Pujols, Randy Johnson, Tony Gwynn, Nolan Ryan, Orlando Cepeda and Bob Gibson

Too hard to pick a favorite set but there are definitely some I just do not like the looks of.

57 Topps (boring) 62 Topps (makes me think of wood paneling) 70 Topps (hate gray) 72 Topps (Tackiest looking ever) 81 Topps (hate the little hats that don't look like the team's actual hats) and 89 Fleer (another gray card set)

(IMPORTANT) I had to add this statement since being ripped off three times on large trades: Should you be a first-time trader with me and no matter how many great feedback notes or how many digits your total trading number is I will insist you mail first and provide a tracking number on larger trades that will be verified prior to my shipping your cards. I have had to do something here since I have lost over 2000 cards due to dishonest people on this site and it stops here and now. THIS IS NOT PERSONAL TO ANYONE it is just my way of protecting my product when trading! Again, to those easily offended traders, spoken in the words of the CAPO: "It's not personal Sunny, it's just good business". Smaller, low dollar trades would naturally not fall into this category and if You and I have traded in the past, please disregard. 

I trade for EX/MT to MT cards. Filling Baseball/Football sets. I have some Basketball and Hockey to trade for Football/Baseball. Fair value trades only! No 91 junk for 70s! All mistakes will be made right. I keep my stock in good condition and inform trade partners of defects. I'll expect same in return.

My Steeler and Pirate binders always have empty pages to fill. I also collect Tony Gwynn and followed his entire career God rest his soul! Hit me up with a trade proposal and we'll see if we can get it done.

I've been a baseball collector since the late 80's and love to trade.  I am primarily a set collector and belong to several online trading clubs.  My never ending goal is to collect all the regular issued Topps cards from 1952 to present.

My main collecting interests are vintage cards,  Minnesota Twins,  a few newer sets and Bert Blyleven.

Vintage sets:  1952 Topps, 1953 Topps, 1954 Bowman, 1954 Topps,  1955 Topps,  1956 Topps,  1957 Topps,  1963 Topps,  1967 Topps

Newer sets: 2004 Donruss,  2005 Donruss,  2012 Cooperstown.

* I prefer not to trade vintage cards (below 1976) for newer cards.

* Before delivering or accepting a proposal please make sure you have all of the cards.

just adding have close to 3 million card. Having a few medical issues so would love to sell some cards too please make offers willing to sell collection too . Selling my sets as wholes so check out my collection list as well.

***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" 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, Wilt, 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, 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 6 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, 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.

I'm a set builder at heart.  My recent focus has been on:

• 1977 Topps: NrMt (mostly upgrades)
• Gypsy Queen Inserts
• 2012 Topps Update: 1987 mini's
• 1993 Studio
• 2019 Stadium Club
• 1975 Topps: VgEx or better (early stage set build)
• Will Clark and Alan Trammell PC

My want list reflects my set builds for 1960, 1975-1980 Topps, random major brand base sets from 80's and 90's, and a handful of sets and insert subsets from the last 10-15 years.  I also like Detroit Tigers cards and pc Will Clark, Alan Trammell, and Tony Gwynn cards from their playing days.

I like nice cards and will be upfront if anything I'm trading away wouldn't fit into my set builds.  I'm interested in VGEx or better for 1960 and 1975 Topps.  For 1976-79 Topps, I'm targeting NRMT sets but would be interested in anything ExMT or better and I'm looking for NRMT or better on anything 1980 to present.

J. Buhner, A.Rhodes, C.Bosio,  D. Wilson, J.Nelson, J.Kruk, R.Dibble, M.Blowers, R.Myers, D.Boyd, M. Blowers, M. Fidrych, B. Blyleven, D. Parker.

DISCLOSURE:

My Topps 59' 60' 61' and 62's are all Ex or Ex+ and looking for good homes.

My OPC/Topps 70's vary widely.  I hesitate to grade, but I do  know the parameters.  Ask for condition and I will put eyeballs on the card and let you know.

My Topps 79' and 80' are weathered.  Some dings, soft edges. Pesentable. Handled by me as a child.  If its creased, it isnt listed here

Everything else Ex+/Nm or better.

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

I enjoy collecting football and baseball sets all major manufactures Topps, Fleer, Leaf, Upper Deck, Score (that all I can think of right now) 1970's to present, 

I have also started a collection of my favorite NHL team the Nashville Predators.

Set building is my major goal condition is secondary. I do not mind a small crease or a rounded corner if a card is needed to complete a set. 

I do not grade cards but I will let you know if a card has an obvious flaw before I accept the trade. 

I do not mind PWE trades. I always ship in bubble mailers and with tracking if the budget permits. That is my personal preference I do not require or ask it to be yours.

Curating a collection of basketball cards with referees in the background. Attempting to 1) acquire two copies (one base and one parallel if available) of every basketball card with a referee's face visible and 2) identify each referee.

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 :)

PS Started a Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis side PC.

Trading: A minimum of 12 cards going each way unless there is a true gem / vintage in the trade. PWE acceptable but prefer large trades of 250+ cards in each direction. Please confirm that you actually have the cards before Accepting a trade; I always do the same at this end. Vintage for vintage; HoF/stars for same; inserts / parallels for same, all as much as possible. Priority are vintage, OPC and sets on my UserLists. Having tried to offer cards from these lists will increase the chances of my Accepting a trade; totally disregarding these and offering me 12+ commons from a set that I am so far from completing that they do not make the list is more prone to being Declined, especially if I see you have cards for trade that are on my lists.

Looking to buy cheap lesser quality vintage baseball and football lots.

I'm a collector, NOT an investor, and I deal solely on that premise.

I have my valuations and ANYTHING vintage (i.e. up through 1979) is considered more highly than anything newer.

I have tons of Wants from the overproduced late 1980s to early 1990s and I am looking to trade within that era for those, but I will go cross-sport, and will try to match HOFers, Stars, or Commons as much as possible in a card-for-card trade.

Mostly I'm a "You got gaps; I got gaps; together no gaps" type trader, BUT because I have plenty of oddball wants, I do not trade those for base cards (or even inserts in most cases). For example, I have plenty of Kellogg's cards, but I prefer trading them for other Kellogg's cards (or other food issued cards) from similar eras.

I ACCEPT lower conditioned creased and worn cards, but I wish to be told about them. The only flaws that I'll decline would be significant paper loss on fronts, markings or doodles that are excessive, or severely cut/torn cards. In those cases I'd still like to see scans to determine if they're acceptable. (I do NOT expect your condition requirements to be like mine.)

I vow to send securely and economically with VARs confirmed and condition issues noted or explained:

1. At least 18 cards going each way in a PWE.
2. Trades involving up to 90 cards will be mailed in medium to large business envelopes without tracking.
3. Larger trades will be sent in most economical way possible (obviously with tracking).

Focusing on These for Now (And the only ones which I'll consider in trades smaller than the 18 minimum from above):

• BASEBALL
  1. 1975, 1978, & 1980 Topps
  2. 1989 & 1991 Donruss Grand Slammers (master sets)
  3. 2001 Upper Deck Decade 1970s and Upper Deck Vintage (base and related inserts)
  4. Any Topps Heritage New Age Performers
  5. Any food issued sets
• FOOTBALL
  1. 1966 Philadelphia
  2. 1968 Topps
  3. 1987 Topps
  4. 1994 Ted Williams Roger Staubach's NFL (base and related inserts)
  5. 2009 Philadelphia
• HOCKEY
  1. 1971-72 & 1978-79 Topps
  2. 1987-88 & 1988-89 Topps
  3. 1989-90, 1990-91, 1991-92 Kraft sets
  4. 2001-02 Topps - 1971-72 Heritage
  5. Any food issued sets

I am first and foremost a set builder, though I'm always happy to get cards from my favorite players and teams.

I prefer to work on 1 or 2 large trades at a time, but will entertain smaller offers.

I do a pretty good job of keeping up with the VAR's, but I am sometimes behind on the most up-to-date ones.

Main goal: Empty out my for sale/trade list. COMPLETE!

Currently collecting (order of importance)

1: Randy Johnson

2: Paul O’Neill; Hideki Matsui

3: 2006; 2009 NY Yankees

4: NY Yankees autos and relics; I am trying to collect 1 relic (preferably game-used jersey) for each Yankee that has one. This is an impossible goal but will be fun to see how many I can get. I am also interested in players that played for the Yankees but only had a game used jersey from when they were playing for a different team. 

5: Topps Allen & Ginter (incl "X" and "Chrome" series) Yankee base team sets and mini parallels

Collections I am considering starting/continuing:

1: Ichiro (Yankees only)

2: “Vintage” (pre-2000) non-sport
