Buy/Sell/Trade Forum

I have just created a list of the sets where I am getting close to completing https://www.tcdb.com/List.cfm/lid/9868/Sets-Getting-Close?C=0.  The criteria I used was that I must be within 25% of completing the set and must not have more than 100 cards needed.  They are all base sets or parallel sets.  There are 74 sets and anywhere from 7 cards to 88 cards missing in these, listed by order of nearness to completion. I have not listed my vintage sets as that would add a few more to the list. This list follows my other list of sets that I need 5 cards or less to complete.

I hope that by doing so, it guides traders to offer cards they have for trade in these sets instead of offering cards in sets that I am still over 50% from completing (no that those cards are not wanted but many times, if I can find large lot buys, I end up buying cards I just traded for).

Thanks for looking and using it to guide future trae proposals.

That is a very great idea. I need to do this as well to complete some sets. I have tons of sets that only need a card or two to complete. 

It's like having a "priority list" of cards that I want first. Sometimes, if there are a bunch of matches, there are certain cards that I want over others, but there's no way to indicate that.

I have had moderate success with the first list I created after stealing the idea from your 2019 Goals list.  Not all traders take the time to look at the lists and help out but some do.  I also added in my profile which more and more, members are encouraging others to read the possible trade partner's profile to see what they like or dislike.
