I trade cards to build baseball, hockey and some miscellaneous sports / non-sport sets. I also PC Felipe Alou, Derek Aucoin, Steve Begin, Jennifer Botterill, Kevin Dineen, Laurent Duvernay-Tardif, Bob Kudelski, Manon Rheaume, Gabriela Sabatini and P.J. Stock as well. I do not buy cards. I also have a sweet spot for oddball / food issue / regional sets. New cards are regularly added to my FT/S list and all the cards I list here are NRMT or EX unless specified and I expect the same of you. I don't collect micro-variations (dots, stars, copyright marks, holograms, printing plate codes...), they're not fun to search and I dislike the incessant frequency with which new ones are added. Seriously, what's the point if you gotta need to use a magnifier glass to check out if there's a dot on the back of a 1991 Fleer? However, I do all my best to check all my cards and to keep my lists up to date, but please ask me first, if micro-variations matter to you. The site really needs some way of opting out of micro-variations (just a default / any var. / unverified option for each card). Besides helping to complete our collections one step closer each time, the opportunity would be nice to have traded with all the states, provinces and territories of North America. On this site only, I traded with members in 46 states, D.C., 9 provinces, N.W.T. and overseas. I can't wait to have a trade in Alaska, Delaware, North Dakota, Wyoming, Manitoba, Nunavut and Yukon. However, if you don't live in the above jurisdictions, you're still more than welcome to trade with me. No trade to Russia, Belarus and Iran. I'm an easy going, helpful and patient guy, but here's now my turn to announce that my NO TRADE LIST is growing due to an increased lack of civility on the forums and the full site. If (1) you nitpick and/or always have an opinion on anything and/or act like you own the site and you're not Admin or (2) you do not respond to counters or decline without expressing a reason or don't PM me to ask more time after several days of wait or (3) you send me ridiculous off-balanced offers or (4) you accept the trade and you can't mail your cards in a timely manner or you send me loose or severly damaged cards or (5) have a brand new (empty) account without info / feedback and ask for valuable cards or (6) you clearly didn't read my profile (ask first, at least) and ask me to buy your cards, then chances are that you just won a place on my NO TRADE LIST regardless of how much I may want what you have. I am fine with shipping cards in single or multiple PWEs, if the cards are properly packaged. Also, I don't mind large or small transactions, but I currently prefer trades with 10 to 20 cards going each way or at least that the cards carry more value than the postage. I am working 12 hour shifts, but I always try to ship the same or the next business day. Just remember that Canada Post doesn't pick up or deliver on Saturday and Sunday. International shipping is very easy, but it costs more for BOTH traders (not just from the U.S.). Here are some tips to save on shipping costs to Canada: use PWEs (Plain White Envelopes) and avoid bubble envelopes, plastic boxes and big stacks of cards. Ship as flat as you can (cut 9 pocket pages in 3 rows and insert 4-5 cards in each pocket). The more it looks like a greeting card or documents mailed in a regular letter instead of a package, the more it tends to be cheaper to ship. Current U.S. to Canada first class postage rate (up to 2 oz) is $1.40 and if non-machinable, $1.79. If you don't have Global Forever stamps handy, three regular Forever stamps work as well. There's also no need to pay $14.85 for shipping with international tracking, because it is just too expensive, it will be way slower to arrive and Canada Post won't track your postal item anyway. Overall, postal service tends to be slower in Canada and at times a bit harder to predict, but it is as reliable as in the U. S.. Lastly, no cross-border shipping by Fedex or UPS: they charge $40.00+ custom brokerage on each and every package they handle no matter if it is duty free or not. A.S. |

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 junk wax (1980s and early 1990s), depending on the cards involved. These are just general guidelines, and if you want to make a deal different from that, just message me. I'm sure we can figure something out. —Why I prefer trading inserts for inserts: Even if the value of a particular insert is no more than an ordinary base-set card, inserts typically are more scarce here than base-set cards. Check each card, and in most cases, you'll see that inserts are included on more Want lists than For Sale/Trade lists. A large majority of modern base-set cards are on more For Sale/Trade lists than Want lists. That's why I don't consider base-for-inserts to be an equal trade. Again, message me if you disagree, and I’ll try to work with you. WHAT I'M WORKING ON —Modern baseball set priorities: **Topps flagship, Series 1 (2024) 64 to go **Topps Heritage (2024) 234 to go **Topps flagship (2018) 386 to go **Topps Update (2023) 8 to go **Topps Archives (2023) 64 to go **Topps Update (2018) just started, 298 to go **Topps Update (2019) just started, 177 to go **Topps Heritage (any year, but especially 2017) **Topps Archives (2020) 229 to go **Topps Allen & Ginter (2022) (Not a big priority for now) **Donruss (2019-23) (Not a big priority for now) **Fleer (1983) (Need cards to be NrMt or close to it) **Donruss (1986) (Need cards to be NrMt or close to it) —Priorities on insert sets: **2017-24 35th Anniversary sets (I love them all) **2017 Heritage: 1968 Topps Game **2020 Topps Archives: 1960 All-Star Rookies **2017-23 Heritage: New Age Performers **2018 Anything (Especially Legends in the Making, and Highlights of Judge, Bellinger, Bryant and Jeter) —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, 1961-80: I've listed condition for everything baseball from 1961-80. **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. MY OWN CARD RANKINGS —Where I rank, as of March 2, 2024, in TCDB rankings: Shaun Alexander (21), Bob Baumhower (1), Cornelius Bennett (60), Paul Bryant (1), John Hannah (1), Bobby Humphrey (10), Wilbur Jackson (1), Lee Roy Jordan (1), E.J. Junior (1), Barry Krauss (1), Woodrow Lowe (2), Marty Lyons (2), Johnny Musso (1), Joe Namath (10), Tony Nathan (1), Ozzie Newsome (3), Jeff Rutledge (1), Nick Saban (1), Ken Stabler (5), Bart Starr (81), Dwight Stephenson (1), Derrick Thomas (93), Richard Todd (1) and Mike Washington (1). |

I have no issue selling if we do not have matches. I will happily talk to anyone interested in buying. I also have no issues on buying cards. Other items that I would look at, that might not be on my WL are the following - Refractors, Die Cuts, Chrome variations, HoF RC duplicates that I already have Currently - My wants change from time to time. I think I have landed on trying to slim out my collection to long term holds like HoFers and Stars. It's something I can pass down to my kid if something happens. Order of priority is listed below - 1. HoF RCs 2. Robin Yount career Topps run 3. Current stars RCs Concerning trading - I will want to know the condition of the cards I will be receiving. I have been getting cards back that are not equal to the cards I'm sending in terms of condition. If you can make me aware of the conditions I would appreciate it so I'm not surprised. Most likely I'll still accept the trade. For values I use eBay and Sportlots. #1 on TCDB for Drew Bennett (Titans / Rams WR) Can do PayPal or Venmo if buying. You can email me directly at bradleymuhs2011@gmail.com I have over 350+ cards on my eBay page. Anything starting at $1 and up. Link is listed below. Check out my IG - King.Of.Commons |

I DON'T SO SMALL TRADES WITH VERY LITTLE VALUE. THE CARDS AREN'T WORTH THE COST OF SHIPPING TO ME. UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED, I ASSUME PWE IS ACCEPTABLE FOR TRADES. THANKS! Very active trader, always willing to discuss a deal. I've had many successful tranactions already, and continually working on more! I like trading/buying/selling. I have 10's of thousands of cards, they're just not all organzed as I buy large lots at a time. I plan on adding more cards weekly. As far as what I collect, I focus primarily on the following players: Barry Sanders, Charles Woodson, Tom Brady, Derek Jeter, Ty Cobb, Al Kaline, Larry Bird and then to a lesser extent, Grant Hill, Isiah Thomas, Joe Dumars, Fab Five Wolverines, Alan Trammell, Lou Whitaker, Bo Jackson, Steve Yzerman, Nicklas Lidstrom and Michigan football and basketball alum. I'm always willing to look at offers. Please be patient though, as I don't always respond quickly, but I will respond one way or the other. ***Please do not send trade offers that rely on prices from the site to establish fair value*** Thanks! |

Picture of me (right) at Wrigley Field . The guy in the Cubs hat (left) claimed to be Billy Williams. He let me get a photo with him and and graciously autographed my wife's chest. That Billy is quite the guy! I LOVE TO TRADE! I LOVE TO TRADE! I collect Chicago Cubs team sets. Currently I have base sets from 1951 - present (mostly Topps). Right now I'm collecting other brands and non-base sets. I love those junk wax era cards. Prefer PWE trades! But not a requirement. Trades of any size are welcome! I'm very easy to work with. I don't have any rules. So anything and everything is up for consideration. I promptly respond to all offers. I won't leave you hanging for days, even if it's just to let know I'm looking at it.

I'm a set collector. I'm working on completing all of the Topps Baseball sets from the 1970s and '80s. I've completed the '70, '73, '74, '76, '77, '78, and '79 sets, and I'm really close on '72. I'm at varying stages of completion for the others. I love trading! I usually trade vintage for vintage and modern for modern, but I'm willing to consider anything reasonable. Print code variations drive me crazy! I know that some of you collect all of those variations, but I don't care about them. Some of my cards are recorded with the correct variations, but others aren't. If you care about the variations, I'm happy to verify that they are the ones you want - just let me know. I've interacted with so many great people on this site, and I thank you all for that. It's really fun to collect cards and to help you get the cards you want. |

PC - John Elway. Also looking to fill holes in the sets I collected when I was younger, and trying to build the Topps baseball sets I missed out on when I stopped collecting for a while. Just recently started to build a collection of Texas Rangers Topps base parallels. To get the most for my postage buck, I'm trying to keep my trades to either: 1.) - less than 20 cards or so (which will go out in PWE's), or 2.) - larger than 50 which will go out in bubble mailers. Also, unless they're something which I'm really interested in, I'll pass on trades of only 2 or 3 cards going each way. |

My football cards are or should be 100% correct, I would like to move as many as I can out of the 90,000 I have for trade. Also, my girls are collecting Pokémon cards and have asked if I can trade for cards they dont have, any help would be great. They do have a ton of duplicates that are not listed on the site because they like to trade with friends at school. All their trade cards are in great shape, not game played. Teams - Detroit Tigers,
