*** 4/7/23*** Trading is off for now. Trying to start up a business and shoulder a lot of burdens at the moment. I still check in almost every day at least once, so feel free to message me if you’ve got an idea for a trade that just has to be expressed. I’ll try to respond in a timely manner. Thanks. ***

BASEBALL

• For pre-war baseball - HOFers, Schoolboy Rowe, Cardinals minor stars, and oddities.

• For 40s - 70s, any HOFer will do, but of particular interest are Cardinals and Tigers legends - George Kell, Al Kaline, Stan Musial, Bob Gibson, etc., Hank Aarons, Mantles, Clementes, Williams, Frank Roninsons, Reggie Jadksons, Willie Mays., Cards from HOFers first three seasons, and I live vintage leaders cards.

• For 70s-80s, I am trying to collect sets. Right now my focus is on ‘78-’84, oddball sets too. 79 and 80 Topps is the next sets to tackle after I finish 82. Also need several mid/early 80s Fleer and Donruss sets.

• For 70s-80s singles, HOFer RCs, ‘84-’87 Tigers RCs and autos, ‘85 Cardinals RCs and autos, And sometimes Johnny Grubbs, Bo Jacksons, and Frank Thomases.

• ‘90s - limited production sets like Stadium Club charter sets, and First Days, Score Select Certified Mirror Gold, Leaf Limited Gold, ’93 Leaf Studio, ‘95 Bowman’s Best Blue RCs. 

• 2000+ 2000-2002 Limited and 2015 Topps Limited Stars; and key Adam Wainwrights, Albert Pujols, Yadier Molinas, Jordan Walkers, Juan Yepezs, Nolan Gormans, Lars Nootbaars, Ivan Herreras, and Mason Wynn cards. And Juan Soto.

HOCKEY

• Any HOF RCs from 68-92. For Pre-1990 OPC is preferred, but Topps is good too. I love 80s OPC. For players, Yzerman, Federov, Bure, Gretzky, and Lemieux. Select Certified Mirror Gold, Stadium Club First Day, Leaf Limited Gold. Any bargain vintage HOFer.

BASKETBALL

• `1980 and 81 Topps stars. 1986 and 87 Fleer stars (and 88 star RCs). Bird, Johnson, Jordan, Dr. j, Charles Barkleys, and Bad Boys Pistons - Isaiah Thomas, Joe Dumars, Bill Laimbeer, Dennis Rodman, etc. Any bargain vintage HOFer.

FOOTBALL

• I’d eventually like to get into the 1986 McDonalds’ regional and national sets. I loved those when I was a kid.

• I need a handful of cards to finish out my ‘85 Topps, ‘87 Topps. ‘88 Topps, and 89 Topps sets. And I need most of the 1986 set. Condition comparable to Grade 6.5ish or higher for these sets please. I may put together a mid-grade 85 set too, since I am over halfway there with the cards I collected as a kid. For singles - Bo Jacksons, Barry Sanderses, Score Supplemental Emmitt Smith RC, Joe Montana RC, Walter Payton RC, OJ Simpsons.  Any bargain vintage HOFer.

i will send in well-packed PWE if possible - if total cards are less than 27ish. If you are against PWE, just let me know, and I will send via bubble mailer.

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.

I'm mainly looking for Topps flagship and Chrome 2010-current San Francisco Giants cards in my want list. But I will take a look at all offers and counter with a fair card value in your want list.

Since postage will be going up i will now be only accepting 5 cards and up unless its a high dollar card. Cards 20 and over will be sent bwmt n perfer to be sent back bwmt.  I will not shipped outside of US. 

Your also more than welcome to check out my instagram on what i do with alot of the cards i trade for. Especially vintage and junk wax and also prospect cards.

Any and all Braves cards from 1954 - Present (RIP Hank Aaron).

I have decided to scale back from trying to collect every Braves card ever made and concentrate on the sets I like. Lately it seems to be next to impossible to collect team sets since there are so many inserts, VAR, SP, and just all to many brands. Topps has once again turned collecting into $$$ for them by making so many different brands. The cost to collect is getting to be very expensive and making me question the hobby again. I still plan on trading and looking for the cards I am still missing.

Willing to trade just about anything for Braves cards......

As a child, I was obsessed with baseball cards, to the point that I could look at a card, any brand, any year, and tell you exactly the year and the best cards in that set. Now I'm 39 years old and the obsession is even worse (or better, depending on how you look at it).  Working for Topps would be a dream job at this point. 

Things I collect:

• Darryl Strawberry Cards (Currently Ranked #7)
• Current and Past Year Topps Sets 1, 2 and Update base cards & certain inserts (priority to the 35th Anniversary Cards, Redux cards, Stars of MLB, All-Star Updates and Black Gold, but there are others that I like)
• Current and Past Year Topps Chrome and Update base cards & inserts (again, priority to 35 Anniversary & Redux cards)
• Other inserts and parallels that look cool.

Right now I’m mostly focusing on adding to my Darryl Strawberry Collection, but also looking to complete the 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024 Topps Main Sets & Updates, as well as Chrome. 

My preference is to trade duplicates from 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024 for cards that I need from those sets, but I’m willing to trade any number of them to get parallels and serial numbered cards. 

All cards in my collection are available in the right deal! Every day, I'm adding more cards to my For Sale List, most of which are in great condition.  Any cards you might be interest in, I'll check out before finalizing a deal.

I prefer sending cards through PWE, so that I can make more trades, but will send in a Bubble Mailer if there are more than 20 cards, or a higher value card that is being moved.

I check this site a lot, so send trade offers away!

 Below are a couple links that were shared to me when I first started trading a few years ago that I found very helpful: 

How to ship up to 4 cards PWE

How to ship 4-27 cards PWE

Glad to be back trading again after almost a year away!!

Smaller trades are preferable at the moment (1-15 cards). I will be willing to do trades of a larger size but I may need pointers on how to ship them as I haven't done any deals of that size yet. Trades 15 cards or under will be shipped in PWE unless otherwise agreed upon. Above that will most likely be bubble mailer or bigger. Only trading in Canada and the United Sates at the moment. Also willing to sell anywhere in the world. Paypal and E transfer accepted

Football: Steelers, Hamilton Tiger-Cats and anything on my want list

Hockey: Blackhawks and anything on my want list

Any cards of Indigenous sports players not in my collection whether on my wantlist or not (Will almost always work a deal out if this is included)

Anything else that is on my want list

If you have something from one of my listed pcs that is not in my collection I will be intetested for sure

1970's TOPPS MLB, NFL, NBA & NHL.

Sets I'm currently working on- (see wantlists). Condition of cards is not highest priority. Willing to consider any trade

Looking to collect Falmouth Commodores, Cape Leaguers, UVA and Marist alumni.

Love selling cards so hit me up with offers!

Message/offer with any interest.

Collecting: Baseball, Basketball, Football, Yu-Gi-Oh!, Pokémon

I only use the card values posted on this site (even though they may not reflect current Market Value) It saves time if you and I use the same source , one to which  everyone has access .The only exception is when I'm looking at cards you are offering, I never value it at less than $.05 I figure your effort to store and trade is worth it to me.  Prices vary with Dealers, eBay and even Price guides. I do not send Internationally.  If your Profile does not indicate where you live and its not in the USA I will not complete the deal.  When I'm looking for trades if you Don't display where you live Country) I'll bypass you even if you have what I need, I may also have what you need. I just avoids mailing issues.  If I trade for a particular VAR that's what I expect in return.  I will always double check to make sure I do the same for you.As always a few people spoil it for everyone.

I'm a set builder.  I Prefer to trade but will sell.

NOTE : AllTetley Tea Discs are connected in original condition two player discs and a special offer disc.  I will not separate the cards.  If you are interested you'll need to trade for all three pieces.no value attached to offer card just value of players

I grew up collecting in the junk wax era, starting in the mid 80s through the early 2000s, and picked up the hobby again in 2022. My goal is to build some of the sets I started collecting with my Dad (63 Fleer, 67 Topps, 68 Topps and Game), have a living set run of 1976 Topps - present, and then as complete of a Cubs team set as I can from 49 Bowman through 75 Topps.

My PC players are Tommy Holmes (no relation), Ducky Medwick, and Ron Santo. I will very likely send you odd trade offers or accept odd trade offers if any of those three are involved.

I am slowly working on adding conditions to my vintage FST and am good with like for like condition in vintage trades. Anything modern went from packs to storage and should be NM+ unless otherwise noted.

I've been a baseball collector since the late 80's and love to trade.  I am primarily a set collector and belong to several online trading clubs.  My never ending goal is to collect all the regular issued Topps cards from 1952 to present.

My main collecting interests are vintage cards,  Minnesota Twins,  a few newer sets and Bert Blyleven.

Vintage sets:  1952 Topps, 1953 Topps, 1954 Bowman, 1954 Topps,  1955 Topps,  1956 Topps,  1957 Topps,  1963 Topps,  1967 Topps

Newer sets: 2004 Donruss,  2005 Donruss,  2012 Cooperstown.

* I prefer not to trade vintage cards (below 1976) for newer cards.

* Before delivering or accepting a proposal please make sure you have all of the cards.

Recently went through all 14,000+ Baseball, Football, and Basketball cards. They sat untouched either in original set boxes or 9 card plastic sleeves for over 20 years. I may want to complete some baseball sets. Mainly looking to sell as my hobbies have changed though I am open to trades to complete some sets.

I have complete sets for sale.

1978 Looking for Bump Wills var card.

Starting on Topps Baseball 1977 as of 11/9/22. As of 02/18/23 the set is complete and I am just looking for upgrades about 9 cards left.

My 1966, 1968, 1969 Topps cards are in great shape! See my Feedback! Don't lowball! I will trade for good value in return. $$ talks too!

BIO

Thank you for your interest in my profile! My name is Jack and I'm a hobbyist & collector in southern NJ. I live in the greater Atlantic City area and am a lifelong supporter of Philadelphia sports franchises. I stepped away from the hobby for almost 30 years until my oldest son reignited my interest in mid-2023.

___________

BASEBALL

My personal collection of sports cards & memorabilia is mainly baseball. Go Phillies! I'm a set-builder, through-and-through and I especially enjoy the chase of hunting the variety of parallels, refractors, and inserts in recent Topps and Bowman sets (i.e., from about 2020 onwards).

I'm just now starting to explore the vintage card space, as well, but am warming to it a lot more slowly, mainly due to my own ignorance. I'm considering making the 1953 Bowman Color set my White Whale; they're just so attractive to the eye. However, I'm working on the 1957 Topps set as a more accessible entry point into collecting sets from the era. Please feel free to offer up additional suggestions.

I'm less interested in junk wax, but don't hold me to that.

___________

NON-SPORTS

A lot of my recent collecting has been focused on all manner of non-sports ​trading cards. I'm especially interested in products featuring characters from Marvel, DC, Star Wars, Star Trek: TNG, or anything tied to pop culture of past eras. I'm also really starting to enjoy historical sets. Finally, I'm a child of the '80s and '90s, so I have a soft spot for anything released from about 1975 to 2000, but I can also appreciate oldies, especially if it's film or television.

___________

TRADING PHILOSOPHY

• Will consider trades of all shapes and sizes
• Will also consider any purchase offers made in good faith
• Will trade and ship to all 50 U.S. states, U.S. territories, U.S. military POs, and Canada with limited exceptions
• Will consider other international trades if responsibility for payment of shipping costs is agreed upon in advance
• Will ship via PWE with 'Non-machinable' label and sufficient First Class Mail postage by default, unless weight/size restrictions prevent doing so
• Will happily send via other methods (e.g., with tracking enabled) upon request, especially for high-value items; prior agreement on this point must be established before either party sends out their leg of the trade, else the above, default method will take precedence
• Love the site's PIF mentality; I try to keep trade proposals balanced and kindly ask my trading partners to do the same
• Communication is the key — please accept/decline proposals in a timely manner, convey information about delays or returned packages, or just tell me that life is getting in the way and you need a few days

***I ONCE AGAIN HAVE A BUNCH OF TOP LOADERS AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE OR TRADE.  IF YOU NEED SOME, HIT ME UP***

Now the #1 collector of Ryan Klesko cards on TCDB!  With more to come!

PC: 

High priority: Ryan Klesko, Dale Murphy, Dave Winfield, Dominique Wilkins, Kenyon Yovan, Michael Conforto, Adley Rutschman, Nick Madrigal, Trevor Larnach, Steven Kwan, Cadyn Grenier, Drew Rasmussen, Gary Payton II, Jacob Melton, Travis Bazzana, Trent Caraway, Gavin Turley, Garret Forrester, Will Frisch, Cooper Hjerpe, Justin Boyd, Mitch Canham, Kevin Abel, Nahshon or Rezjohn Wright, Terry Baker, Christian Chamberlain, Gary Payton, Ethan Thompson, Darwin Barney, Damien Martinez, Jam Griffin, Jake Luton, Jermar Jefferson, Hamilcar Rashed Jr, Luke Musgrave, Anthony Gould, Kitan Oladapo, A.C Green "In the Name" letter cards, Jade Carey.

Lower priority: Junior Seau, some Bo Jackson, Eric Lindros, Jordan Poyer, Mike Hass, TJ Houshmandzadeh, Jacoby Ellsbury, Steven Jackson, Nick Barnett, Matt Moore, Ochocinco/Chad Johnson, Sean Mannion, Johnny Hekker, Sam Gaviglio, Matt Boyd, any Oregon State alum/player in any sport (male or female).

PLEASE SEND TRADE OFFERS.  It's my favorite part of the hobby.  Always willing to negotiate a good deal for both sides.  One card, or 10+ cards.  I'm fine with any size.  USA & Canada only, unless the card is significant enough to me to ship overseas.

I do NOT collect/keep any other cards of any other players/teams.  If the card isn't a unique card to me of one of my guys above, it's not something I will keep.  I don't want duplicates either.  I'll trade it or sell it if it's something I think I can move; otherwise, no thanks.  But I DO want any card of any of my PC guys if I don't already have it.  My trade/sell and want/wish lists are updated, so if it's not on those lists, it's highly unlikely that I'm interested in it, or I already own it.

Fan of: all OSU sports, Braves, Red Sox, Blazers, Chargers, Flyers, Timbers, Tottenham FC.

Goal for VINTAGE ONLY CARDS (condition NOT very important...just no rips/tears, no writing on the front...some creases ok...not really concerned with how the back looks): Hank Aaron (preferably in a Milwaukie uniform, but not required), Mickey Mantle pre-1969 (earlier the better), Babe Ruth any vintage year, Joe DiMaggio any year, Lou Gehrig any year, Ted Williams pre-1955, Jackie Robinson any year, Shoeless Joe any year, Jimmie Foxx any year, Satchel Paige any year, and Stan Musial pre-1960.  For basketball, would like a Alcindor while in Milwaukie, early Doctor J, Oscar, early Magic/Bird, Bill Russell, Wilt, David Thompson, Cousy, Mikan, Moses & maybe a couple others.  Prefer to stay as cheap as possible, but for the right card might go a little higher...obviously Mantle/Ruth/Joe D/Wilt and those types would be more.  Again, condition I know won't be great at these prices.  I now have a Hank, Mantle, Jackie, Clemente, Yogi, Bob Gibson, Ernie Banks, Sandy Koufax, Mays, Jerry West, Maravich and Gervin at these levels, and a couple of Ted Williams, that I'm very happy with.  But the more the merrier if the price is right!

• I will typically send cards via PWE unless the quantity is above 20 and then I will send BMWT.  If you wish a smaller trade to be sent BMWT, please let me know & adjust the trade accordingly.

VERY willing to trade/negotiate.  I live to  trade...send me ALL trade requests!  Would prefer trades to purchases, although I know my PC is pretty limited in the grand scheme of things.  Just got back to the hobby in 2020 after approx 30 years out of it, and about 20 years after selling off 99% of it to pay for our wedding.  I forgot how much I loved it!

Just a dad collecting cards and making memories with his kids.

Hopefully gaining a little wisdom along the way.

Our current project is turning my old collection into one that is based on their interests, ideas, and what they like.

Trying to do this one trade (big or small) at a time.

We know the transition will take time but will be well worth it. The time spent together and also building relationships with other collectors makes it all worthwhile.

Let's make some trades. Join us on the journey.

Favs: Jose Ramirez, John Cena & those that hang out at the corner of greatness & making the world a better place.

We are collecting Topps Flagship and Stadium Club team sets for the Cleveland Guardians/Indians from all years.

****2/1/24 UPDATE****

We have loaded many new cards into the system and have modified our want list a bit. We will continue to gradually make more cards available as well as increase our want list. We are willing to sell cards as well. If you see something you like or are interested in, send us a message!

I collect baseball,basketball and football from 1978 to present!

Hello: I joined this site in March 2021. 

The trades that I have done have gone very smoothly. Shipping has usually been PWE (Plain White Envelope). I have made trades where the value of cards is less than the postage. Sometimes a person (trader) just needs that last card to complete a set, so I've learned to make trades were the Post Office gets the better end of the deal. 

I still have cards that I need to upload onto this website. (2003 to 2019) hoping to get those cards loaded into the data base soon. 

I'm a set builder:

If you are a buyer check out my "For Sale Only Cards". All the cards in this collection are for sale. I'm still organizing my cards to put in this collection.

The following complete sets are for sale:

1987 Topps 

1987 Topps - Glossy All-Star

1988 Donruss - Stan Musial Puzzle

1989 Donruss - Warren Spahn Puzzle

1991 Ultra (Fleer)

1991 Ultra Team (Ultra Gold)

1991 Upper Deck - Baseball Heroes: Nolan Ryan

1991 Upper Deck - Team Logo Holograms

1992 Donruss - Rod Carew Puzzle

2007 Topps -All Stars

Down the road I'm looking to sell all my cards. At my age (70) it's about the that time to sell all my cards. Hopefully there are people on this site that buys cards.

Have a great day.

I started collecting baseball cards as a kid in the mid to late-80s and collected them through the early 90s. I started out collecting them with my old man, and I look back on those days wistfully. We'd sit up at night and put together sets and lists of our missing cards and that was a great thing to share with him. At some point, though, I outgrew wanting to share that experience with him, choosing instead to share the hobby with my friends. Then I started to notice girls and found other things to spend money on. I boxed up all the cards and traded the innocence of collecting baseball cards for other, less wholesome pursuits.

At some point over the course of the next 2 and a half decades, I somehow outgrew the nomadic life, became an adult, got married, found a permanent place to live, and jumped on the wildest ride of my life: fatherhood. In a fit of cleaning out my old room to make space for her new grandkids (my sister's kids at the time), my mother transported all of the cards from my childhood bedroom and brought them to live with me. To the attic they went, and in the attic they stayed for the better part of the last decade, hidden away and silent.

While working from home during quarantine, I repurposed the attic into a makeshift office to hide from my two kids, who were also at home, and who, despite my and my wife's best efforts, have no conception of privacy or quiet, and care very little for anyone else's productivity--especially when it comes at the expense of their most immediate desire. Stuck in the attic, armed with a laptop, and facing long days of working in solitude, there sat my baseball cards staring back at me, summoning me from a place and time long since gone. In a moment of sports deprived weakness, I answered their call and opened up a couple of boxes to look at my old collection. Glorious!

Within days of our local economy's soft reopening, I found a local card shop, escaped my attic, drove to it, donned a mask, and walked in to buy some new cards. I quickly learned that the days of the $0.50 pack had passed me by--quite a while ago it seems. Undeterred by the effects of what seemed to be hyper-inflation in an economy I had ignored for some 27 years, I left with not one, but two BOXES of baseball cards. Upon opening up the many packs of new cards, I discovered the advent of the insert card's prevalence, and that, unlike unicorns, autographed cards actually DO exist in packs (helllooo Pete Alonso!). Fascinated, and in need of boxes in which to store the cards and toploaders in which to protect them, it was back to the card shop for me. A couple of carboard boxes, a few bags of penny sleeves and some toploaders just couldn't be the extent of my second excursion. So, much like an addict in search of a fix, it was another box of cards for me. 

But, this new lifestyle of big spending on cards I knew nothing about would prove to be unsustainable as my wife and I are also tasked with feeding, clothing, and sheltering (in place) these two children we created. Alas, it was back to the attic for me, and back to shuffling through all of my old cards, sorting out the commons from the hall of famers, sorting out the steroid users from the clean players. Thus, a new collection was born. Hall of Famers. Those are the cards I want to collect.

But, I needed a mechanism for organizing what I had, and what I wanted to get. When I bought my last pack of cards as something other than a novelty back in 1993, the internet was not yet a thing, at least not one to which I had access. I thought: Surely there is some mechanism online to help me organize these cards, and give me reason to continue sorting through this mess. And, after minimal searching on the worldwide web, I discovered TCDB. What a brave new world this is.

I look forward to getting back into the hobby. But, for now, I am going to stick to trying to collect Hall of Famers, mostly vintage (which, I have learned, is now a word in this industry that describes me). I'm less concerned with a card's grading, centering, corners, or condition than I am with the name and face on it. I'm not in this as an investment; I'm in it for an escape. Hopefully when this little 2 year-old ages a few more years, he'll begin to enjoy collecting baseball cards as much as his old man did once upon a time. If so, I hope to bequeath to him a worthwhile collection and to share the experience with him for as long as he'll have me.
