This is only a slightly modified initial profile, far from complete.

From my dozen or so completed transactions, I have learned several things that would have to be addressed if you want to trade.

First, TCDB listings can be misleading, especially when TCDB added a separate variety of a set and placed all of the previously listed generic cards in one or another new category.  For example, 1977-78 Topps Basketball cards were originally listed on TCDB without consideration as to whether they were "white-back" or "grey-back" cards.  Since then, the distinction is now listed as two separate categories.  Apparently all of the prior listings were placed in the new "grey back" category regardless of whether they were "grey-back" or "white-back."  That makes it difficult to understand which back variety is available from someone's For Sale/Trade list.  Often, I am only looking for a specific card variety as I already have the other varieties.  Though TCDB created new variety listings, many longtime TCDB members have not updated their old listings to reflect the actual card varieites they are offering.  

Second, as to condition, my offerings from the 1980's on are generally near mint to mint.  Specific cards I am offering from World War II to 1980 vary in condition from poor to near mint.  Often, I have several of the same card as they came from my extensive, old store stock that went into storage (10x25 feet by 6-8 feet high) in 1991-93 when I closed the shop to return to school.  The condition of an individual player's card in this quantity may differ from others of the same card.in that volume, Please ask about an individual card so that there is no misunderstanding as to condition.  Scans can be provided and may also be required of the cards a member has available.

I am primarily looking to upgrade sets with cards in the overall condition of the set.  I am really not interested in trading for a missing card if I would only have to upgrade it later.  Also, I generally do not trade older cards (pre-1980) for newer ones (post-1980), though any of my newer cards are available for a trade the other way.

For pre-World War II cards, I am collecting cards associated with California, my home state.  These cards are wanted in any condition.  Even if I have not yet listed such a card in my wantlists, it's probably still wanted. Feel free to contact me by TCDB message.

IMPORTANT.   I do not like shipping or receiving any cards with a total value over $20 without  them being sent with a tracking number.  Too many untracked envelopes get lost in the mails. Generally, tracking cost about $5 (and for valuable items insurance is more). It not only protects a shipment, but avoids any misunderstandings about whether the cards were actually shipped.

Any questions, feel free to ask.  I've been involved with TCDB members in complex trades of over 100 cards, as well as the sale and purchase of cards.  No transaction is too large or too small to not be considered.  If we work together, we can probably make a deal.

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.

Dec. 15, 2023 - This past year was an extremely difficult one for me. I logged in just a couple of weeks ago, after a 5 month haitus from life. I'm more or less just trying to catch up on my wantlists and figuring out where I last left off. I think it will be quite a while until I'm back to my old self. If you're interested in a bubble envelope sized trade, please send me a PM. - Happy holidays, Eric

I’m all for exchanging pictures of cards to help clear up any questions you or I may have. Whether it be vintage, anything with a potential condition issue, or just nailing down that we’re talking about the same parallel. I myself am not uber focused on condition. What’s most important for me is getting the right version of the card I’m requesting. As for shipping, I can send cards out about twice a week typically and prefer pwe. Thanks for reading & for everyone who has already traded with me!

Just a high schooler aspiring to open my own sports card shop. Please send trades my way! I always read messages within a 12-hour radius, and always respond to every message. I only pretty much want cards that are in my wantlist unless I propose a trade to you saying otherwise. I primarily collect Basketball, Football and Baseball, but will dabble in MMA, Boxing and vintage Cartoon related cards

I accept Paypal, venmo, cashapp, and cash in the mail.

Primarily I am a Minnesota Twins collector. Secondarily I am a set builder, mainly Topps baseball. I also collect Minnesota Vikings and Minnesota Wild.

When it comes to trades, I ship almost exclusively in PWE - I'm meticulous in packaging (I use cereal box like material in every envelope w/ blue painters tape on all four sides. Envelopes are sealed with clear packing tape).

Ideal trade size is 1 to 18 cards and even up to 27 cards in a PWE too. All trades more than 27 will be jewel cased in a bubble mailer.

Please take a look at my want lists and for sale/trade lists and let me know if you'd like to work a trade. I'm constantly updating my collections, want lists and for sale/trade lists, so check back often.

Interesting Fact about me: My parents used to work for the company that packaged Score, Playoff, Pinnacle, Cardz, Sportsflix and Pokémon cards in the 1980's and 1990's.

I collect: NBA, NHL, NASCAR, Star Wars, History, Military, DC Comics, Olympics, whatever interests me

Current project is trying to get at least one card of everyone to ever get one for NBA, NHL and NASCAR. Also working on getting at least one example of every set ever for the above sports. (Wantlists on Cardboard History)

I have some health problems that make it challenging for me to get to my trade stash. It makes me a slow trader as there are some days when I'm simply in too much pain to access the boxes. My health problems are not transferable so you do not need to fear catching anything from trading with me. I generally only can mail on Saturdays.

Trading: 

I prefer to trade 1 card for 1 card. I do not care about any made up "book value". I will gladly trade more than one card for some as well...there are a few cards on my tradelist that I do need more than one card for in return though. I only put sets on my wantlist that are close to completion, so if you have something else in any of the three sports or the Non-Sports topics I focus on, odds are I will want it. Only reason I wouldn't is if I had it already.  If you don't have anything from the topics I mainly collect, but I have something you want, I will also accept football or baseball in trade, pretty much anything to get a trade done. I would prefer not to trade with smokers. I have breathing problems and cards that come from smokers are essentially useless to me, I cannot handle them. I prefer larger trades but will do any size at all.

I have tried to make sure all the cards on my Tradelist are problem free, with no corner dings, scratches or other flaws, but I am human and it's possible I may have missed something, but all cards sent out are cards you shouldn't need to worry about ever finding a replacement for. I don't demand problem free cards in return as my theory is that a damaged card is better than no card, but writing and paper loss means to me that I don't actually have that card so please don't offer them to me in trade. 

If you don't care about condition, take a look through my "Damaged Cards" collection. These are all cards that I rejected from my tradelist for having flaws but they are available for trade. I would put them at one third a card "value" so 3 damaged cards vs. 1 of your cards. If you do want any of them, let me know and I will move them to my tradelist. I don't want to put them all there and cause matches for people expecting good cards and getting damaged cards in return. Some of the flaws are pretty big problems, some you will probably wonder why I didn't list it in my tradelist. While my collection doesn't demand perfection, I am very strict with condition on cards I send out in trade.

Trading Prioroties: (what makes me the happiest to get in trade, in no particular order)

  • 1995-96 and 1996-97 NBA Cards
  • 1994 NASCAR Cards
  • Any NASCAR card that actually focuses on the car
  • Automotive Non-Sport cards
  • New York Rangers
  • New York Knicks
  • New Jersey Nets (and Brooklyn and New York Nets, but the NJ era is my favorite
  • Elton Brand
  • Dale Earnhardt Jr.
  • Henrik Lundqvist
  • History related Non-Sports cards
  • Attractive women (with or without clothes)
  • Anything from Racing Champions I don't have
  • Team logo cards for NBA and NHL
  • Non-sports subjects in Allen & Ginter
  • People with last names starting with Q, U, Z and especially X. 
  • With that said, I will trade for anything at any time, whether it's on my wantlist or not. I prefer "quantity" to "quality" and I'm a set builder at heart. 

There are also a couple of specific sets I'm really hoping to complete some day:

  • 1996-97 Ultra (NBA), my favorite set ever
  • 1988 Leesley Bigfoot (the set that got me started collecting)
  • 2002-03 Topps Chrome Refractors (NBA) Refractors are my favorite parallel and this is the closest one to completion
  • 1994 Action Packed (NASCAR) tied for my favorite NASCAR set
  • 1989-90 Marine Midland New York Rangers (just need the cover card!)
  • 1993 & 1994 Skybox The Simpsons (One base card away from completion, also chasing inserts)
  • 1954 Topps Scoop (my favorite Non-Sport set ever)
  • 1953-54 Topps World on Wheels (my favorite automotive set ever)

Robin Yount Super Collector - my collection is currently ranked 5th on the site (and climbing!)

I'm currently building a 1967 Topps baseball "beater" set - creases, ink marks and all!

Also searching for George Brett, Nolan Ryan, Pete Rose, and Alan Trammell items.

Looking to move extra and unwanted cards for my PC needs, I'm not hesitant to make large trades. I'm also not obsessed with trading 'card-for-card' or for exact 'value'. If you see a card you need, make an offer - I'd love to help you finish sets and add to your collection.

Hey all, my trading priorities at the moment are vintage (mainly 1972 high numbers) and Topps refractors from the early-mid aughts of past greats (mainly ATFF refractors [2003-2005], Topps Retired refractor autos [2003-2005], Archives Reserve hits [2001-2002], and 2005 Topps Pristine Legends [refractors only]). Offer me any of that stuff and I'll be motivated to work out a deal! We could probably still trade even if you don't have any of that particular stuff, but I ask that you please don't offer me "junk" (forgive the term) unless it's "junk" that you're asking for in return, as I'm generally less interested in overproduced stuff.

Check out my blog Baseball Card Breakdown that I've run since 2013. I also do a 1991 MusiCards Blog where I get to ramble more about my youth and music I like. Also worth noting that I occasionally make my own custom cards, often printing extras for trading and surprise bonus throw-ins.

I haven't logged that much of my collection/wants into TCDB yet, but I'm working on it. My card blog, however, features a big wantlist as well as a trade bait page that I'd encourage potential trade partners check out in addition to the "trade matching" option here. Thanks!

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.  Going forward, I will be rejecting these types of large trades.  I'm looking to help people complete their sets and vice versa.  A good rule of thumb when sending a trade proposal... think how many boxes will I have to pull from?  Sorry, but I hope you understand.  Craig

I’ve been collecting cards for over 47 years and have over 521,000 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 ConditionA 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.

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)

Any cards that I have that do not meet the above criteria will be removed from my collection. As of right now, I only sell on COMC (and I don't see that changing). I just don't have the time with my lifestyle (working 40-50 hours a week, plus coaching three baseball teams) to pull, package, and mail trades, or even mail my own sales. I do enjoy sending PIFs and typically check wantlists here before sending a box to COMC for consignment. If I'm looking for something specific and notice you have it FS/T, I may reach out to try and make an offer. I don't expect to receive any proposals, and would rather send someone a few cards from their wantlist and get nothing in return than try to hash out a deal.

I do have cards listed FS/T; they are available via COMC, listed in my "COMC" collection, and can be accessed by following the External Sales Link on those cards. I don't have them in my possession, so I can't do a trade with you. However, I want to see these cards go to people who really want them. If you see something you like, send me a message on here and let me know - the price will come down, and I'll even take a bit of a loss to get you cards for your collection. I keep my prices more in line with what is currently offered on COMC, but I'll certainly be wiling to negotiate, especially with a TCDB member, as these are typically higher than what these cards are truly worth, in my opinion.

***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, 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!

I am a baseball set collector, 1971-present. In addition, I pc Red Sox, Rookie Cards, Ryne Sandberg, Cal Ripken, Jr., Gary Carter, Freddie Freeman, Dansby Swanson, Bo Bichette, Cavan Biggio, Gavin Lux, and Bobby Witt, Jr.

I'm still working on populating my collection, so my For Trade and Want Lists are both works in progress.

I'm interested in trading/selling my duplicates and non-pc cards for cards to complete my sets and pc.

Along the way, I've picked up some football, basketball, and hockey cards in various mixed lots that I've purchased. I've started to add these to my for sale/trade list. As I really don't collect these sports, other than a few Patriots, Bruins or Syracuse alums, I am absolutely interested in trading these for baseball cards on my want list.

I'm open to trades of any size, let's make a deal!

I'm primarily collecting 1969 Topps at the moment. My dad gave me his set when I was a kid and in the last couple years I've been trying to complete it. 

Years ago I had several binders full of cards from my childhood. I got tired of moving them every time I moved and decided it was time to get rid of them. Now that I'm back in the hobby I'm regretting that decision... I'm slowly trying to build the collection back up for my PC and for trading. 

I don't typically look at estimated card values when proposing a trade so if I missed something and it's uneven, let me know and I'm happy to adjust it. I'm more interested in completing my sets at the moment than looking at flipping. 

If there's anything you want on my FS/FT list and we don't have any matches from my Wantlist, feel free to offer something up anyway. I'm always looking for the next set to work on. 

I'm interested in everything but here are the sets that interest me at the moment:

  • '69 Topps baseball
  • 50's Bowman baseball
  • '53-'55 RedMan cards
  • 1889 Kinney Bros Leaders
  • Football (both modern and vintage)
  • Japanese Menko
  • Michael Jordan
  • Chicago Bears

Hello

I have been collecting cards for almost 40 years. I focus only on baseball. I am a Tiger fan and a set collector of Topps base and update sets. My main focus is completing the Tigers Topps Gold team sets for each year. I collect numerous players in addition to Tigers. I will continue to add to my for sale/trade list, however I have a few things that I would prefer to sell. If you see something that interests you please do not hesitate to ask. I am always interested in trading cards to add to my PC. 
 

I have a large amount of football cards that I will be entering in the future. If there is a specific player or something else you are looking for, send me a message and I will let you know if I have anything. 
 

Feel free to ask questions and or send trade offers anytime. 

Please check out my YouTube channel and my cards on Check out my cards (COMC). Username for both of those sites is also Tigers727. 

Thanks

I have one of the biggest refractor collections and complete set collections in the world, which my father started 25+ years ago.  Joining here to try to find some of the remaining cards in my want list and finish off more sets!  I have a very long way to go in adding to my 'collection' section, hoping to have everything added in by the end of the year but we shall see. 

I have tons of extra refractors available to trade or sell, and am working on getting them added into my collection as time allows.  Note: Cards will range from EX to Mint.  These are mostly chrome refractors so they may have greening, surface scratches, etc. If you are very particular about condition please ask for pictures before agreeing to a deal. 

***Most of my extra refractors are now added with the exception of random odds and ends. I am open to selling anything in my for sale/for trade list with payment via Paypal/Venmo/Zelle.*** I will accept reasonable offers, especially if you put in the effort to make the offer and don't just ask me for a price on a ton of cards.  However, I am a top rated ebay seller and will not just give my cards away for a tiny fraction of what I would get on there, so please do consider the fair market value of the cards you want before making an offer.  I am happy to negotiate back and forth with someone on prices as long as you are realistic.

Willing to overtrade for certain cards on my want list, and I am ok with shipping things PWE when appropriate (less than ~10 cards and lower in value mainly).  I recently got a bunch of double pocket Armalopes which I will use for anything more than 5 cards PWE. 

My want list is very close to final at this point, so I likely will not want to trade if we do not have matches already.  The only exception might be for green bay packers hall of famer autographs, if you happen to have any. 

Small trades are ok, but prefer bigger ones whenever possible.  

I always leave feedback from a positive deal, and ask that you do the same.
