Last fall I decided to put together Topps Red Sox sets. I had about 50 cards at the time. Since then, I've purchased roughly 100 cards and traded for nearly 900 cards, all from this site. Thank you all who helped me out with this goal. I currently need only four more cards to finish the sets (1988-2016). I've seen a couple of these on Ebay but the shipping is a little steep for a low value card.
If you happen to have doubles or don't mind giving them up, I'd surely appreciate it. Thank you.
1999 Topps Traded & Rookies - #T48 - Adam Everett
2003 Topps Traded & Rookies - #T188 - Dusty Brown FY, RC
2004 Topps Traded & Rookies - #T1 - Pokey Reese and #T47 - Orlando Cabrera

Congrats. Always a good feeling completing a set, or a colllecting goal. Both.

Yeah, my price point goes higher and higher the closer I get to completing something. It's worth it. Congratulations.

Thanks! :) It was good to finish it up. Next goal will be 1982-1987. I'm trying to stick with the teams I actually got to watch play, but I may go back to 1969, if it looks plausible.

Congrats on completing that goal and good luck with the next one! It seems to never end though. You complete one goal and almost immediately come up with a new goal. That's the way it works with card-collecting.

How about the Topps Factory Bonus Inserts for Red Sox players in the '00s era? Do you have all those too?

I hope I never run out of goals. That's what keeps it challenging. :)

No, I don't have any of those! I remembering seeing them and thinking I'd better put the basic sets together before looking for those.
