2000 - 2023 Baseball Stadium Club, last cards of HOF'ers and cards of players blowing bubbles, all sports

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!

(06/24/2023: Trading is turned off for the forseeable future. )

Set builder; Currently focusing on 2022 and 2023 Topps sets. ACTIVELY looking for trades!

Hierarchy of needs:

1. 2022 Gypsy Queen Autographs (non-parallel)
2. 2022 Topps Flaghip Inserts
3. 2023 Topps Flagship Inserts
4. 2011 Topps Inserts
5. 2011 Topps Base
6. 1991 Topps Desert Shield

Willing to ship PWE anywhere in US and Canada, as well as any location that accepts a standard international letter stamp from the USPS. 

If requesting a thicker relic, please offer to pay for at least half of the shipping via first class package. If you would prefer that I send relics through PWE, you must assume the risk for any damage/excess fees incurred upon arrival to your post office. I will pack these cards to the best of my ability, but modern era relics are just getting too darn thick. Sending these have really started to become expensive and I would rather the card get to you safely with less risk.

***Please do not request 1991 Topps Desert Shield cards unless you also have cards from the same set in return.***

Matt Kenseth (NASCAR) is main priority. Attempting 100% completion of known cards. Primarily collecting racing, basketball, and unusual cards that grab my attention.

Kenseth collection is currently over 2,300 different cards and slowly closing in on 50% completion.

Note: If proposing a transaction, please message me prior to sending proposals if you do not have a US address for shipping.

About Me: Keeping it simple. Only Trading, not Buying.  No Pay it Forwards please.  I build Topps Heritage sets and my goal is to have a complete run of Topps Heritage sets from 2001 to current year.  You can see my progress below. I do build other sets and pc players and those cards are also on my Wantlist.  If I have cards you need, but you have little to trade in return, please message me.  I will look at your FST list and see if there are cards I can use for sets that I am building that are not on TCDB. I'm up for both small and large trade proposals. Cards outside of my FST list are not available. 

Shipping: I prefer to ship out via PWE.  More valuable cards or larger transactions will be shipped with tracking. I will provide the tracking number in the message area of the transaction. Currently only shipping to the lower 48 states.   

WANTED - Topps Heritage Short Prints (SPs):  Several of the Heritage sets that I am building are only missing Heritage SPs.  If you have any of the SPs I need please send me a message.  I do have a number of duplicate SPs, yet I do not add them to my FST list inventory. Why? Because TCDB is not the only source I use to acquire the SPs I need. To avoid inventory issues, I do not add them to my FST list. (The bulk of the extra SPs I have are from 2018 - 2023.)

Trade Proposals:  If you request multiples of the same card within a transaction proposal, please give me a heads up in the message area.  If I see multiples of one card in a proposal, I am going to assume that you did that intentionally and send multiples.  I say all of this to avoid disappointing someone.  Likewise, I like to pull all the cards before accepting, especially on large transactions. I try my best to mirror my physical inventory to my TCDB inventory, but mistakes can happen. 

Topps Heritage Collection: Below is my current progress of trying to complete/build all of the Topps Heritage sets from 2001 to current year. Completion Percentages - Last updated 4/22/2024.

2001 Topps Heritage - 66.83%

2024 Topps Heritage - 89.00% (Only Need SPs.)

2024 Topps Heritage (White Border) - 12.00% (Only reflects the cards I have received...several are inbound.)

2010, 2011, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023 Topps Heritage - Complete!

5 cards incoming is a minimum for trades, please! (Unless it's a higher-value card)

I am prioritizing my collecting on Nebraska Cornhuskers currently, so any trades for those former players are preferred.

I care about VARs/variations/parallels. If it's documented that way on TCDb, that's the one I'm looking for! Please take a little time to confirm your cards being offered are correctly documented. Easy traps that everyone falls into are 1990s ProCards/CMC cardbacks and football hobby base versus retail base.

Check out the results of the Ukraine trip here!

Declining trade offers with no message is of little use to the person initiating the trade, show some effort to those putting together trade offers and take a few seconds to note why the trade doesn't work in its current state. A few moments to communicate can lead to a deal getting done!

On the flip side, please stop sending me 1-4 card trades showing that you didn't read/ignored my top message in bold, respect for time goes both ways!

About Me:
KC Royals and Nebraska Cornhuskers Team Collector, and Alex Gordon/Jermaine Dye Super Collector. TCDb enthusiast!

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)

*Not currently buying/selling/trading until I can get my lists in order*

Ryan Zimmerman, Peter Bondra, and Olaf Kolzig, plus all Washington Nationals, Washington Capitals, and Virginia Tech Hokies.

All baseball cards to build sets.  I'm not into buying multiple players as investors and discourage trades with people who want multiple cards of superstars or rookies. I will gladly trade one of each but not multiples of the same card,  If you request multiples and I overlook the multiple quantity when I Accept your Offer, I will only send one card but will notify you via message of that fact.  

I have complete sets starting with the '51 Topps Red Backs, '52s except the last series, then '53 through current "base sets" except for a few dozen total.  I'm trying to fill in those few by trading, so if you have something I don't, please suggest a trade. 

Again, If you're an investor looking for superstars and rookies, please look elsewhere for trades as I prefer to save those cards to serious collectors who need those cards to complete their sets.

I have football, basketball, hockey, soccer and other cards to trade and am working on getting them all loaded into this database.  Feel free to message me with your wants even if you don't see them listed.

I also have some complete sets (hand-collated) available for sale:  Please make offer on each.

  Topps 1987

Focusing on The Milwaukee Brewers, Rockford IceHogs, and Chicago Blackhawks. Robin Yount is a favorite player. Also liking Christian Yelich, Patrick Kane, Mike Schmidt, The Rockford Peaches & Non-Sport cards which strike a fancy!

NEW 2/4/24 Due to some unfortunate events I will not be home as much. So from now on I will only ship cards on Monday. If I mark it shipped it will be out on Monday. The cutoff will probably be Monday around 11:00 AM or so. So if you’d like your trade to be sent out as early as possible let’s make a deal before then.

NOTE: Although I have a good paying job I’d prefer to keep trades on about 8 cards exactly or 18 cards exactly. I love collecting cards but I have kids college to pay for one day. If I did not then I’d do every trade that I get. I will use PWE for everything unless I send a message in a larger trade. Or is somebody is buying cards. I do sell cards however for cash only. I’ll send them and once you receive you can send the cash.

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!!

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!!
