TRADING
—Suggestions if you would like to trade: Prefer trading inserts/short prints for inserts/short prints, vintage for vintage, junk wax for junk wax, and modern base-set cards for same. I don't mind getting modern cards in return for 1980s and 1990s cards, depending on the cards involved.

—Football priority: Cards of former Alabama players. To a lesser extent, I'm interested in former Alabama basketball players, too. Also, I'd like to complete the 1982 Topps football set, but cards need to be NrMt because all the ones I have for that set are NrMt or better. I'm trying to finish my 1973, '74 and '75 Topps sets, too, and I'd like to get at least Vg to VgEx.
CARDS FOR SALE/TRADE
My goal is reduce the number of trade cards to zero. Any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. What I'm offering:
**Baseball, 1981-current: These are almost always Ex-Mt or Nr-Mt. (If they aren't, I've got condition marked.) If you ask for a particular card, I'll check condition before accepting the deal.
**Baseball, 1964-80: I've listed condition for everything baseball from 1964-80.
**Football: Everything 1980 and newer is almost certainly Ex-Mt or Nr-Mt. I've listed condition for 1982 and everything 1979 and older. The 1969 and 1970 cards are almost all Poor to Fair, with a handful of Good sprinkled in. (Sorry, I got them years ago from a friend who didn't take care of his cards.) I've got some 1970 cards to trade that are Ex-Mt or better.
**Basketball: I've got some 1981-82 Topps listed. All those cards are Ex-Mt or Nr-Mt. I've also got some 1990-91 Hoops and 1990-91 Fleer cards listed. They're all NrMt.
