Buy/Sell/Trade Forum

I am beginning to post various sets (sport and non-sports) from the 1970s in my collection file along with wantlists and cards available for trade.  I have many, many more items available and wanted  from before 1980, but as you know, it takes time to post.  As to the cards available for trade, I initially tried to post the quantity of each availalbe, but now only indicate one available of the same card as it takes to much time to post more.  Having multi[les of the same card, means they may be in various condition from poor to near-mint or better.  I will try to accommodate those offering trades to match their desires if they can match the missing cards in the condition of the various sets to which they would be added. I  am trying to upgrade my sets so that I may have listed a card as wanted even though I already have a lesser grade card in a set that will be replaced.  In those cases, the lesser grade could be included in the trade so you could still have one.  I am really not interested in selling the cards, but only in trading for those to fill in the sets.  If you have missing cards from this era that match my wantlists (or could match the potential lists that may get posted), contact me.  We might be able to help each other out.  Mike

I have done the same for my baseball traders where I only list 1 for trade even though I may have several. If you have your traders well organized, it is easy to add another one for trade when one is asked for in a trade. You simply click on the link of the card and add another for trade. When the trade is complete, one is removed while the second one remains for trade. That is why it is best to use the trade manager to select the cards in a trade and not to cut and paste text into it.

As for card condition, I always send the best card I have available for trade. I would like to think others would do the same. I think most collectors want the nicest card even though they are willing to accept  Fr to Gd. 

At present I don't have any matches to your wants, but you do have some vintage basketball I'd be interested in. I'm presently reevaluating my collection and removing some players from my PC, except if they're in smaller sets or subsets I'm collecting.

Anyway, look at my traders and I'd be glad to work something out. Condition is secondary to me, though I do draw the line on major paper loss or tears, and severely miscut to where labels are cut or another card is visible. Other than that creases, rounded corners, minor marks are okay with me.

I hope we have some matches, otherwise, blessings on your search to improve your collection.
