PapyB

Hello potential traders, here's a little info on what I'm looking for. Hope we can swing a deal!

1957-1967, I prefer at least VGEX but will accept VG with no major flaws: large creases, paper loss, writing, water damage, miscut or badly OC. Swapping pics would be appreciated.  I'm also OK with swapping fillers for fillers.

1968-1973, I'm looking for at least VGEX, no creases, paper loss, writing, water damage, miscut or badly OC.

1974-1979 I'm looking for at least EX condition, no creases, paper loss, writing, water damage, miscut or badly OC.

1980 to present, I'm looking for at least NRMT. 

All of my vintage traders (pre '81) have grades on them.  If you add a card with a VG grade to the transaction, it will be VG, GD will be Good, VGEX will be VGEX Etc. No surprises. I do my best to be honest and accurate.  If your cards have issues, please disclose them before we trade and I will do the same.

I also collect the following:

Vintage Oddball Dodgers, (Bell Brand, Morrell, Jay Publishing, Postcards, Team Issued sets, Etc.)

Everything else on my want list is there to round out trades, not a priority.

As a general rule, I prefer to trade vintage for vintage and modern for modern. I will consider trading vintage commons for newer stuff, just try to be fair and reasonable with your offers. 

I work two jobs so mailing is done on Friday-Monday

At this time, I'm not doing any trades outside of the U.S. 

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

Looking to complete 1970s Topps baseball sets.

Collecting Topps base sets from any era.

Also looking for Detroit Tigers players.

Have thousands of 1978 Topps and hundreds of 1977 topps.  Would love to trade for other 1970s years or the few missing 1979 and 1980s cards I need.  Let me know if you are looking for 1978.

NEW Info- I am into historical cards also.  IE: Cards depicting historical events, politicians, presidents, and other historical things.  I am new to this, so I don't know what my specific focus will be, but I am interested in broadening my horizons beyond sports.  

Here is what I am currently working on:

1978 Topps Burger King Tigers - Have 9/23.  I need the rest.

1977 Topps - 659/660 - Need 1 card

Thanks to this site, I have finished:

1980 Topps-Final card: Ted Simmons
1987 Donruss-Final card: Andy VanSlyke
1979 Topps-Final card: Dave Concepcion
1977 Topps-Final card: Cardinals Team Card 
1994 Topps-Final card: Kevin Wickander (why this one? very random)

Looking to Return to the #1 Spot for Chris Sabo Collectors. I would love to trade for any Sabo I am missing. 

I also Collect Any and all Reds but mainly Gray, Votto, Stephenson

I have a small wanted list but have no problem selling cards to fund purchases of cards I am after so hit me up with a buy offer if we do not have trade matches.

The variations I have listed are correct* at time of listing.

1991 Topps listed as PR are non-glowback variations.

The 1991 Topps cards on my WL are glow/No-glow specific, when offering let me know which you have, if not there is a 50/50 chance I would receive a card I do not need.

* Unless a catalog change occurred after listing that I am unaware of. 

Darrell Evans

1976-1990 Baseball Error/Variations

If you don't have any cards from my want list, check out my "On Sale" collection. All cards are 10/$1 plus postage (PWE if possible)

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)

For commons, I am not trading 1 high value card for a bunch of commons, or all Ohtani/Trout/hot prospect for commons. I also do not want to trade cards with 1 available straight up for cards with 50 available on the site. Nothing personal, I can just get commons almost anywhere and am not going to give away cards where there are only 1 or 2 available here for them. Common base for common base is all I ask. Hopefully you understand.

Chicago Cubs. US Women's National Team Soccer. Chicago Red Stars. Chicago Sky.

Top priority player PCs right now are Willson Contreras and Kyle Hendricks. Any Tatis on my wantlist is my lowest priority - it is just a small side PC so I'm not looking to overpay for anything Tatis related. 

Trading PWE is fine with me. Trades of up to around 20 cards or less will ship PWE unless they are higher value, thick, or by request. If you want a bubble mailer just ask!

I don't collect unlicensed cards for the most part - sorry!

If there is any football, basketball, non-sport etc. on my trade list, I will happily trade it for baseball. I don't really collect those cards they just end up in my collection when I buy lots. 

Trading with the US and Canada only at the moment to keep shipping down.

I will sell any cards on my FS/T list as well. Either shoot an offer or a wantlist and I will get you a price.

Set Builds: Topps flagship, Topps Heritage, Stadium Club

I keep up with the base Topps and Donruss baseball sets.

I also enjoy collecting oddball baseball sets.  My current focus is on the following:

• Starting Line Up cards (not the figures)
• Sponsored team sets like Police, Fire Safety, Kahn's, Coke, etc.
• Updating my Hostess box panel cards (individuals)

I am always looking for cards that I do not have of the following Hall of Famers.  Serial numbered cards less than 100 are not on my want list but I am still interested.

• Frank Thomas (White Sox only)
• Carlton Fisk (Red Sox or White Sox)
• Ernie Banks (Mr. Cub)

PLEASE READ

CARD CONDITION

I have removed all recent cards that are not NRMT or better from my inventory.  ExMt or better from 80's or earlier.  Anything less than ExMt will be specified and discussed before mailing.  In turn, I ask that you do not send me anything that does not meet these criteria. 

POSTAGE

I will send all cards in plain white envelope (PWE) unless agreed otherwise or if card values are high.  Mailing more than 18 cards may be split into separate envelopes.  I always buy postage at the post office and get a receipt so I have some kind of verification.

Single cards will go out in a toploader.  Multiple cards will go in a 9 pocket sheet, folded and placed between more rigid cardboard.  The goal is to keep it thin to keep it cheap and avoid package charges.

TRADING

I use Beckett pricing to even up trades.  If you look up prices on Ebay, Sportlots or COMC, sell your cards there.  

I collect error Cards, variations, and all Garrett Whitley or Ian Anderson cards.

If you find something on my for sale/trade list but don't have anything I'm looking for, I am more than happy to sell at very reasonable prices.

For the vintage cards on my wantlist, I am looking for VG+ condition. No creases. 1-2 rough corners is OK, but I don't want 4 rounded ones. Centering isn't too important, as long as I can't see the next card on the front or the back. I want clean, unmarked checklists.  Not all of the vintage on my trade list matches these criteria, and that is why many of them are on my trade list as I have upgraded the cards over the years.  I will let you know condition before agreeing to a trade.

The CJ McCollum and Josh Allen cards on my wantlist are lower priority.  They are there mostly as filler or if you find other hoop/football cards on my trade list that you are interested in.  I'm unlikely to trade higher value baseball for anything other than baseball.  Find a bunch of common baseball and the only matches are McCollum and Allen, we can probably work something out.

I also have a LARGE quantity of 1991 Topps separated out by glow back, non-glow, bold logo, etc.  I don't have them listed on the site as there is no way to distinguish between the glow and non-glow backs.  If you collect these and are looking to trade, please look me up and we will certainly figure something out!

 I am looking to trade  for Phillies or anything on my want list.  I am adding new cards to my for trade list every day. I have my Phillies collection listed from 1887 to 2024

Primarily Baseball: Set Builder & Player Collector in the 80's and 90's and there a few sets that I am seeking to complete.  Really enjoy the odd-ball stuff upon my return to the hobby.  Many duplicates for trade.  Still working on cataloging many 1980-1993 Topps, Donruss, Fleer, Score, Bowman and Upper Deck cards as I built sets from wax/cello/rack packs with very little help via the trade.

Some Football:  Built sets in the 80's and have some duplicates to trade.

Some Hockey:  Built sets in the early 90's and have some duplicates to trade.

Some Golf:  Built 1981, 1982 Donruss Golf  and 1991 Pro Set.  Some duplicates for trade.

Some Basketball:  Not sure exactly how I acquired most of these cards and most are for trade.

Some Multi-Sport:  Not sure exactly how I acquired most of these cards and most are for trade.

Some Racing:  Built a few sets in the early 90's and have some duplicates for trade.

Some Non-Sports:  Built sets in the late 80's and Early 90's and there are a few that are incomplete.  Have some duplicates for trade.

• Main PC: Tony Gwynn
• Looking to build Justin Turner PC right now
• Also PC: Mark Trumbo, Steve Garvey, Andre Ethier, Stephen Vogt, Clayton Kershaw, Sandy Koufax, Max Muncy, Chris Taylor, and Roberto Clemente
• Vintage cards: condition generally not a big issue, just looking for cards w/o writing or creases
• Always offering modern for vintage
• Open to considering all trades, even for cards not on my For Trade/Sale list 
• Only consider trading to Canada on the right deal. If you are in Canada, please express such when offering a trade.
• Trading similar cards for set builds. Not interested in receiving trade proposals offering me a quantity of set building commons for a few of my star/HOF cards.

****** FRIENDS AND FELLOW TRADERS*****

****04/14/2024*********

I know this is a trading card site but I came across several volumes of stamps in a collectors hoard I purchased and thought I would see if there would be any  interest in them, either trading a few baseball card commons or just finding a new home for stamps!  First up:  

1997 Guinea set of 5 plus commemorative sheet - golden retrievers, etc. - used.

1993 Sao Tome and Principe #1489-1496 Atlanta Olympics - used

*****07/07/2023********

Been receiving a few sale offers - I sincerely  appreciate the reach outs but I am overwhelmingly primarily a trader.  I  might make a purchase if I am very close to completing a set and have been unsuccessful in trading for that card  or few cards but most of the time I am not interested in purchasing.  Thanks my  friends!!

******09/27/2022*****

Thought I would take this opportunity to update this profile.  I want to weigh in once again on what a fun community this is!  I have now been a pretty active trader for a couple of 3 years and it has been everything I could want in a hobby.  In addition to  completing my 1977 T and 2006 T ( a set my sons and I started when it was new so brought back many memories of that time), I have completed a 1990 UD BB by trading alone, which was a blast and cleared out a lot of duplicates!  I am also close or even very close to completing other BB sets.  I am an old-fashioned flagship set builder, not all that concerned with inserts/chase cards or condition, and my experiences here have been invariably positive.  I am always on the lookout for BB cards of any age or condition (even if you're just trying to get rid of that shoebox of junk wax commons!!) and am always delighted to send along my extras to other member collectors.  Considering my collection had been boxed away for some 30+ years, it has been great fun to get back into the true trading card aspect of the hobby and this site and the friends I have made here are truly remarkable.

Always open to trading (large, small, PWE, whatever) and I'm happy to help with fellow set-builders, as so many here have been so kind to me.  Very willing to help; my extras are much more at home in your collection then in my duplicates box.  If see something you need/want in my to trade and don't have any matches from my wantlist, let me know and we'll figure out something.

I've opened trading back up but two things: trader boxes are a bit of a mess and things may take me some time to find, also I will be away from the card room from 5/18-5/25.  Smaller size trades would probably work best for the near future.

I have a unique work schedule that keeps me away from the card room at times but I try to communicate regularly in regards to where I stand during transactions. Willing to do any size trade across sports/eras.

*Of note, some of the 70s & 80s baseball and football cards on my tradelist have conditions indicated and some do not.  It's a work in progress for me to have all of these updated.  If you have any questions about any, I'd be happy to answer them.  Most of my vintage traders have condition issues to some degree (some are fillers only!). If you're looking for nm or ex-mt, I'm probably not your guy. If you need/want fillers or lower grade, they can be had for minimal/no trade depending on the situation. Thanks!

*** I just added many 1991 Topps Desert Shield to my FS/T and want list.  This is a new set build and I prefer to trade dupes for needs in the same set.  If you offer regular base cards of almost anything else then I am likely to decline.  Thank you for your interest! *** 

Hello!  I bought my first packs in 1973 and found a card of my favorite player Mickey Lolich.  I was hooked and started building sets each summer.  Took a few years off now and then but always found my way back.

PC baseball set builds I'm enjoying right now:

• 1991 Topps Desert Shield  368/792   46%
• 1959 Topps  555/572   97%
• 1960 Topps  531/572   92%
• 1962 Topps  452/598   75%
• 1965 Topps   348/598   58%
• 1970 Kellogg's  70/75   93%
• 1971 Kellogg's  54/75   72%
• 1972 Kellogg's ATG  12/15   80%
• 1973 Topps Team Checklists  21/24   87%
• 1972/73 Topps Hockey   174/176    98%
• Plus many more sets on my want list...

I love trading so please don't hesitate to initiate a transaction.  Not much of a seller, really prefer to trade.

Trading Guidelines:  1)  Looking for EX or better in 1966 and earlier, need NRMT or better in anything newer as these are likely upgrades.  2)  I'm open to trades of all size, from 1 card to 1,000+.  3)  The number of HOF/Superstars and key rookies should be fair, not looking to trade my HOFs for commons.  4)  I try to accurately identify variations but check with me if you seek a specific version of a card.  5)  Condition of cards:  1979 & newer are mostly NRMT, 1978 and earlier include childhood cards and vary in condition.  I am in the process of entering grades for all cards in these years.  Feel free to ask about specific cards.  I always pull cards before accepting a trade and will inform you of any condition exceptions.

🇨🇦 I Welcome trades from my friends in Canada 🇨🇦 

P.S., I still have the original Lolich card from the summer of '73 and that dupe is not for trade.

i collect Mike Piazza (all years, all teams), 90's insert sets. And i just recently decided that I want to put together the 1955 Bowman set. an adventure so far.

thanks for looking!

***If you are offering a trade and you see I need a '53 Topps card that you have, I am most likely not interested in trading for it, as I am collecting a graded set and just use the wantlist to keep track of what I still need.***

Chipper Jones, Derek Jeter, Tony Gwynn, Ozzie Smith, Kirby Puckett, Vlad Guerror (Sr.), Don Mattingly.

Players from Delaware including Mason Fluharty (my cousin), Zack Gelof, Jake Gelof, Delino DeShields, John Mabry, Chris Widger, Randy Bush, Chris Short, Ian Snell, Joey Wendle, and others. University of Delaware athletes in UD uniform. Tennessee Volunteer football players in UT uniform. Duke basketball players in Duke uniform.

Cards on my for sale/trade list typically consist of the following conditions (I will let you know if an individual card is in worse condition): 

2020-2010 - Fresh out of the pack, typically NrMt

2000-2009 - Ex-Mt to Nr-Mt (may have a fuzzy corner or show a little bit of edge wear from being in a box, especially if the card has a dark colored border)

1988-1999 - Cards from when I was a kid. Some may have some fuzzy corners or edge wear from being in a box. If the wear/damage seems significant I will let you know once I pull them.

1981-1988 - Some may have some edge wear, fuzzy corners, may have a dinged corner. Others may be straight out of the pack. I will let you know if there are any serious issues.

1980 and older - I typically include the condition. Most of these cards are EX at best. Some are a lot worse. I can send photos if you are interested, just ask.

I don't typically pay attention to centering unless it is really bad. If the card is legitimately miscut and you can see another card on it then I just throw it out and it won't be listed here (with the exception of some vintage stuff).

I prefer to trade my non-baseball for baseball cards, as I'm trying to focus my collection and reduce the space it takes up.

I ship PWE unless it's too many cards to fit or there's a card of significant value.

***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!

Primary focus is Topps Baseball.  My main goal being the 71 set.  I'm also big into Star Wars.  Don't have much on my want list but I'll never turn down star wars cards I don't already have in my collection.

My son and daughter are both big into different non sports (Pokemon, Mars Attacks, and anything political) and boxing.

If it's on my want list I'm willing to trade for it.  Shoot me an offer.

Pittsburgh Penguins

Pittsburgh Steelers

Roberto Clemente

Trades : * 5 card minimum on trades

               * Please do not send me creased or written on cards

               * If there are any condition issues on my end I will let you know before accepting trade

               * If you are concerned with the dot and no dot VAR let me know so I can double check as I got tired of entering these

               * If you are wanting SER#, SP, AU, MEM or insert cards I would like the same in return 

               Just like a lot of members I work very long hours during the week, if you send me a trade please be patient and I will    get to it   on the weekend

Goal: #1 M's collector on TCDb. Status: #1 (ca. 22 Apr 2024)

• If you would like to know the condition of any card in a trade or sale, please message me and I will send you a picture and/or do my best to describe it. We likely have different standards for "card condition", as I have never had a card graded or intend to do so. For any cards with which I've noticed defects (e.g., rough corners), I've tried to mark them with "Fair" or "Poor" ratings. I am still working on updating this for all cards.
• I love trading, and I do my best to respond to every offer as quickly as possible; some weeks are busier than others.
• I usually will withdraw trade proposals after a week or so, so I can free up those cards for other trades.
• I'm slowly working on ensuring the small card variations (i.e., asterisks, periods, etc.) are correct, but please feel free to check with me during a trade.
• I will gladly trade base cards for inserts/autos/etc. If you can offer a lot of base cards for a higher-valued card to get from me, I'm all for it.
• I am more than happy to sell cards listed in my For Trade / For Sale list, too.

Baltimore Orioles cards of all stripes and flavors! 

Sub-collections include:

• Cards featuring The Bird, the Orioles' mascot
• Cards featuring Oriole Park at Camden Yards or Baltimore's Memorial Stadium
• Cards or Stickers focusing on the Orioles logo
• Canadian-produced (or Japanese, Venezuelan, British...) cards of the Orioles
• Cards produced by the Star Company featuring Orioles players
• Weird unlicensed Orioles cards from the junk wax era
• Topps Opening Day cards featuring Orioles players

I'm good with PWE trading. Big or small trades can both be rewarding. I'll always aim to make sure it's an even trade where everyone is happy! 

At the end of the day, all of this should be FUN. 

Collecting all Topps complete base sets.  Looking for 1972 and earlier if you have them.

Collecting all Fleer/Topps boxed sets (33/44 cards).

Looking for all Upper Deck insert cards and sets from the early 1990s.  Interested in trading for whole sets when they exist, not just single cards.

Collecting all HOF and "Greatest" base sets, like Fleer Greatest, or Upper Deck Cooperstown.

Collecting everything Mike Schmidt.

I have a few complete sets for Trade;

Conlon Collection 1-660;  1983 Donruss Action All-Stars (3x5 cards); 1990 Fleer, 1986 Fleer Mini; 1987 Fleer Boxed Sets - Award Winners, Exciting Stars, Record Setters, Baseball's Best, Limited Edition, League Leaders;  1993 Studio; Topps base sets: 1987, 1988, 1989, 1992; 1982 Topps Stickers; 1992 Upper Deck.

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.

My main PC is McGwire, always looking to add!  Any card that's not part of a set or not a Cardinal's or Bronco's hall of famer is likely for trade to build on my PC.  I'm also starting to build up my Holliday, Wainwright, and Ankiel collections as it's becoming harder and harder to find McGwire stuff I need.

I'm working on Topps base sets from 1979-present, currently focusing on 1981, 1983, and 1984.  I'm also trying to finish off a pesky 1999 Ultra set.

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.)

Baseball collector only

I'm open to trade for any cards I don't have in my collection if there are cards on my for sale/trade list that you want. Just shoot me a message or offer and we can try and work something out.

If you are a variation collector in a trade, please let me know and I will verify the cards are the variations that you want.

Zach and Porter here!  Father and son combining junk wax with a new age of collecting.  Base cards still matter and so does the love of the hobby.  We love the White Sox & Chicago Bears.  We operate on a budget so we try to focus on PWE trades to maximize our monthly trade allowance.  With that said we stick to trading in the US.  Thank you for understanding

Porter and I recently started our own YouTube channel in order to share our love for collecting.  Please watch and subscribe here Zach and Porter
