Lakesidecollects

Only dealing with Allen & Ginter product only

I started collecting as a kid in 1974, baseball, football, and basketball cards. I purchased my first packs for $0.10 in 1974 at Zane's Market in Dover, Ohio.  The next year the price jumped to $0.15.  I quickly learned to count by 15s.  I sold my entire collection in 1989 to get an apartment after graduating from college.  I regret it to this day.  I have been rebuilding my collection over the last 25 years thanks to a very supportive and encouraging wife.  I collect Topps base sets and pre 1990 baseball cards only.   I am always looking for cards I need. I have thousands of doubles from mid 70s - 80s to present plus others. Will trade vintage for vintage but not interested in most cards from last 30 years except Cleveland Indians/Guardians cards. Looking for nice mid grade vintage on trades, min VG/VG+, or  lower grade on some the HOFers pre 1970.  

Complete sets; Topps 1973, 1974, 1975, 1976, 1977, 1978, 1979, 1980, 1981, 1982, 1983, 1984, 1985, 1986, 1987, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2021, 2022, 2023.

Currently working on; Trying for better quality of stars' cards in my sets and finishing off the 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2023 Topps Heritage sets.  Heck, I'm working on ALL of Topps base sets not listed.

Players that I collect; Kenny Lofton, Omar Vizquel, Jim Thome, Cleveland Indians' team sets, HOFers concentrating on pre-1990 players.

I prefer not to ship to Canada.  It's quite expensive.

Let's trade!!

When trading cards I will accept G to mint quality for any card from prior to 1980. For all trades from 1981-current I will accept cards that are VG-Mint.

I am looking to sell any card on my for sale/trade list feel free to make an offer. When making an offer please include shipping.

I will not sell or trade any card that is listed in my personal collection.

Lover of all things baseball and avid card collect and trader.

First and foremost a baseball vintage set collector (1980 and earlier) with my daughter, but we also enjoying opening packs together so secondarily a current baseball set collector as well.

Happy to trade baseball for baseball, and trying to trade all non-baseball cards to make room for more baseball.  

For the most part, when trading baseball for baseball, we would like to trade like for like: vintage for vintage, current for current, SPs for SPs, etc.

Dot-vars: We are listing variations accurately for trade, but not collecting different variations.  Adding all variations to our want-list to "cast a wide net" but only collecting one variation of each card.

Since I've been asked where our username came from... my daughter picked it for our geocaching name years ago and wanted to carry it over here.  Pretty simple.

Happy to post pictures of cards for trade for any trading partners that need. 

***Constantly updating our want/trade lists so please check back for trades.

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.

70's, 80's Baseball, Football, Basketball and some Hockey but I'm open to pretty much anything.

• I prefer to trade vintage for vintage and stars for stars.
• Topps baseball, 1950s through 1970s. Trying to complete the sets with EX or better condition cards.
• New York Mets
• Tom Seaver
• Topps Giants 1964
• Topps basketball, 1960s through 1970s
• I have about 2500 Topps baseball 1973-1978 for trade, including many keys. The 1975 thru 1978 cards are typically in 6-7 condition, the 1974s in 4-5 and the 1973s in 3-4.
• I have several hundred Topps hockey and football cards from 1973 through 1978, mostly EX, that I am willing to trade for baseball and basketball cards.
• I have a few dozen Topps Star Wars cards from 1977, mostly in EX or better condition, that I am willing to trade for baseball and basketball cards.
• PWE and PayPal work for me.

Due to recent surgery, I now have time to open the trading booth.  I'm hampered by such exercises as moving boxes and getting to the post office for the next few weeks, but I'll try to process everything as fast as I can.   Thanks.

Currently only focusing on my Topps Cardinals, UD Blues and Young Guns wants. Would prefer to make some YG for YG trades.

Baseball - Ken Griffey Jr, Nolan Ryan, Bo Jackson, Scott Rolen, Deion Sanders and Michael Jordan. With these if it's not in my collection I want it! And The Wizard Ozzie Smith.

Hockey - Peter Forsberg, Teemu Selanne, Pavel Bure, Paul Kariya, Brett Hull, Chris Pronger, Wayne Gretzky, Martin Brodeur, Patrick Roy, Curtis Joseph (mostly on the Blues) and Young Guns

St. Louis Blues UD team sets, Blues YGs, (down to 1 O'Reilly variation card I need), UD Blues inserts and St. Louis Cardinals Topps team sets (1951-present.) Most of the newer sets are complete, just missing some short print cards.

I also have some Topps factory sets that aren't quite complete anymore, 91-95, 04x2, 06 & 09x2. Most are missing a few team sets and possible a few other cards. Message me if you are interested in these as I would have to go through them to know exactly what is missing. 

If there are any experienced fantasy baseball players here that are interested in a dynasty league, hit me up and we can discuss further. 

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!!

I have a ton of cards. Still trying to get everything added as I have time. 

My PC Teams are:

Baseball: Phillies and Padres. 

Basketball: Utah Jazz. 

Football: Philadelphia Eagles. 

Hockey: Utah's new NHL team. 

College: BYU Cougars College Uniform and Pro Cards. 

Star & HOF rookie card collector in all sports. 

In person and TTM autograph collector.

***pausing transactions briefly to catch up on current proposals and reconcile inventory***

Matt Williams (#1 TCDB)

Still in the long process of uploading my current collection of baseball cards.

New to the site since 1/25/23 after a 20-year break in collecting and have just completed 450 trades on 3/8/2024!

ALWAYS looking for 1998 Topps Tek Diffractors Patterns for card #44!

Most wanted items:

1987 The Bon Pocatello Giants Team Set

1990 Phoenix Baseball Magnetables #54 Matt Williams

1991 O-Pee-Chee - Pre-Production Sample Sheets #NNO

I will consider all trades, big or small, to USA and Canada. As a rule of thumb I would prefer to trade base for base.  I do have some inserts and short prints in my FSFT list.  I will consider trading inserts for base cards on a case by case basis. For the short prints I am hoping to trade for other short prints on my want list.  As far as condition is concerned I am looking for NRMT for 1980-Present, 1970s EX-NRMT, anything prior to 1960 I will consider almost any condition (although I would ask for pictures prior to accepting). 

Priority of my collections are as follows:

****CURRENT PRIORITY IS CLEVELAND INDIANS/GUARDIANS TOPPS HERITAGE CARDS 2001-PRESENT***********************************************

1. My Cleveland Indians/Guardians collection, trade requests involving any of these cards is most likely to get my attention.

2. My Topps Base sets, I am diligently working on completing my 1980-Present Topps sets.

3. My sons 1992-93 Upper Deck basketball.  Down to only 39 cards to complete this.  Mostly high-series, but there is a few low series.  

4. Any other sets on my wantlist, such as my 1991 Fleer are a distant priority.  Trades involving only these cards and requesting higher end cards like inserts are more likely to be declined.

Born and raised in Cleveland and have been a huge baseball fan ever since I remember.  I credit my grandfather with my love of the game and love of the team.  My first memories are of the playoff teams of the 90's and I've been collecting ever since.  My goal in collecting is to collect as many different players as possible who wore the uniform.  This started out as collecting all flagship sets over the years, but has expanded to many less known sets as well.  Eventually I may even look to include inserts, parallels, etc.
