Dnairn5990

Primarily I am a Minnesota Twins collector. Secondarily I am a set builder, mainly Topps baseball. I also collect Minnesota Vikings and Minnesota Wild.

When it comes to trades, I ship almost exclusively in PWE - I'm meticulous in packaging (I use cereal box like material in every envelope w/ blue painters tape on all four sides. Envelopes are sealed with clear packing tape).

Ideal trade size is 1 to 18 cards and even up to 27 cards in a PWE too. All trades more than 27 will be jewel cased in a bubble mailer.

Please take a look at my want lists and for sale/trade lists and let me know if you'd like to work a trade. I'm constantly updating my collections, want lists and for sale/trade lists, so check back often.

Interesting Fact about me: My parents used to work for the company that packaged Score, Playoff, Pinnacle, Cardz, Sportsflix and Pokémon cards in the 1980's and 1990's.

Set Building and New York Mets

All trades under 12 cards are shipped PWE unless we discuss differently. 
 

I have a 3 year old so I apologize for any slow response time in sending or just answering a trade proposal. I will respond to everyone. 

Set collecting and soon to be collecting Steelers and Reds only

Baseball;  Topps, 1975 through today. Also have some Stadium Club and Upper Deck.  Also interested in Topps pre 1975 but I have very few of these.  I have Topps extras from 1981-through 1993 that I am willing to trade to fill vacancies that I will be adding to my wants and needs lists as soon as I can.  If interested, please ask.  I also have at least 5 flats of football and will look to sell or trade for more Topps baseball !!! I have very few baseball from 2012-2016, but started again in 2017, but still lots of spots to fill.

My 3rd Anniversary on TCDB.  Like many, COVID gave me more time to get back in the hobby.  Over 600 trades completed and many new friends made.  I have achieved my goal of making Yankee sets from every year 1980-present!

My new goal that is rather impossible is to trade all my non-Yankee cards for Yankees. So send your offers, please.

Been collecting sports cards (off and on) for over 50 years.  Still adding cards as I get a chance.  Willing to sell or trade.  Also have many unopened 2021 products - Topps and Donruss.

Looking to complete Yankee sets from 1980s to present. DONE 

Minor Leagues - all Yankee affiliates and Erie Seawolves (Tigers AA)

**Turning transactions off for a couple weeks to get caught up on stuff, will be back soon**

My girls play ball on the weekends, which takes up a lot of my time. If you send me something on Friday I may not see it until Monday.

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" 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!

SEP 28 2023 UPDATE: I'm taking a step away from trading for the foreseeable future. This means I'll only be checking in every once in a while (once a week or less) over the next few months. Feel free to submit offers to me if you are okay with being patient. You can also find cards of mine for sale on my eBay page. IF and ONLY IF, you are interested in purchasing a card of mine (ie NOT A TRADE OFFER) send over an offer or dm with the subject line of Interested in Buying or something similar. I'll prioritize those messages I come across as best I can. All other trade offers will be addressed as quickly as possible but may take time. Thanks and happy collecting! 

Cheers! - Alex 

FWIW... / FYI... I enjoy being on the site and trading with all of you. Please be patient with me though as I have a family, job and life I prioritize above baseball cards. 

Trading 

- I prefer trades that are apples to apples. For example:

GOOD OFFER - Asking for 5 x MLB 2021 Topps Chrome Commons in return for 5 x MLB 2021 Topps Chrome Commons

BAD OFFER - Asking for 2 Basketball Silver Prizms in return for 6 Topps Update commons.  

Baseball and Basketball cards and memorabilia. Also started collecting more football cards in 2021.  

I love vintage ticket stubs (no print outs or screenshots) to events, concerts, festivals, sports, etc.

I have a bunch of old cards (football, Magic the Gathering, etc) from my younger years (90's era) I'm looking to unload. 

Love Dodgers. Love Lakers. 

Favorites 

- Kobe Bryant & Jackie Robinson

- Mookie Betts

- Shaq & Hakeem Olajuwon

- Clayton Kershaw 

- Magic Johnson & Showtime Lakers

- Craig Biggio (it's a long story but in short, "NO the Astros* aren't on my good side these days)

- WSU Cougars NCAA mens bball - Tony Bennett, Taylor Rochestie, Aaron Baynes, Klay Thompson, Kyle Weaver, 

- Matt Kemp (Dodgers) 

- Clifford Ray (Basketball player from Golden State Warriors) 

- Max Muncy, Walker Beuhler, Sandy Koufax, 

- Penny Hardaway, Michael Jordan, 

- Randall Cunningham, Karch Kiraly, Don Ford, Eddie Mathews, Ryan Spilborghs, Jamaal Wilkes, Al Geiberger (golfer), Tom Curren, Sam Cunningham, Kami Craig, Booker Brown, Dylan Axelrod. (Santa Barbara High School alumni is what these folks have in common) 

Priority of my want lists:
1 - Any and all Phillies cards (almost anything not in my collection is a "want")
2 - Various set ventures (baseball - 1972 Topps, 2016 Topps Chrome, Archives, Heritage sets, then hockey sets)
3 - Baseball HOFers (1980s)
4 - Baseball HOFers (1970s)
5 - Baseball HOFers (1990s)
6 - Baseball HOFers (other decades)

If there are any other categories of want lists, they would fall between set completion and HOFers.

I added approx. 90,000 cards available for trade in early 2023.

[The next section has been updated on 3/4/2024]

Note: Currently transactions are ON.

While I have transaction requests turned on, trade proposals will be handled in the order in which they are received. I am continuing to take it slow because I don't have the time or patience to take on too many trades at once. Additionally, I have found that it makes it easier on both sides because the cards are known to be available. And please, when we do trade, please make it so that the postage to/from your location to mine makes a trade worthwhile for both of us. Thank you.

Please also note that I am very much open to selling in addition to trading. If you see stuff you want and don't have anything in return, that's okay. We'll work out a deal that will be fair for both of us, not just me (and not just you, please). (The listings over at the SwamiLee account are in my possession and I am also selling those. The only sport left there is baseball.)

Thanks for reading my profile. I enjoy trading cards I don't need for those that I do. I've been in this hobby for many years (I remember opening 1955 Bowman packs at our local candy store)! I usually don't pull my end before making a proposal; most times, I'm trying to get a feel for how doable it is, and it saves me from having to refile cards if things fizzle out or if I'm countered.  I will, however, (usually) pull before accepting a trade.  Please counter, if need be!  Communication is key to good trading!   I have some physical limitations..it may take me a bit to pull cards so your patience is appreciated!  

1.  My top priority is completing sets.  

2.  Recent Phillies teamsets and inserts.  I do multiple teamsets to help local Philthies Phans!

3. Older Phillies teamset needs..all brands.

As mentioned, I love to trade, will reluctantly sell ... cheap, if we cannot swap!  PLMK what I have that you can't live without!  Phillies is my team, through thick and (mostly) thin!  PWE trades are great and assumed unless we agree otherwise - bubbles used if worth the shipping costs!  Slowing down though - the old body won't let me hoss those 5000 count boxes too much - thanks in advance for your patience with me!!

I'm a set builder... mostly Bowman, Heritage, Heritage Minor Leagues and Pro Debut.  

Main PC Thurman Munson... trying to collect one of each card... Currently sitting at #4 of top collector on this site and trying to get to #1... any help greatly appreciated.

Secondary PC: Jonathan India... trying to collect one of each card

Third PC - RCs from various players

Any football, hockey, golf, basketball on my trade list will be traded for baseball as I don't collect those but do come across every now and then.

All Canadian trades will ship pwe due to cost.   Junk wax era cards, not spending to much time on looking if they're variation or not, i.e. 90 donruss with @leaf, border, inc

As for something fun to do, trying to complete a trade with someone from each state.  Currently still looking for trading partners in the following states:

DE /  LA / ME / NM  / VT

Effective 6-12-23

FYI Due to family and work, cards will be mailed out once a week on Monday morning, no matter when the deal was made.
