Flash G

I have baseball, football, basketball, hockey, and racing to trade---happy to trade across sports (and trying to acquire more hockey)

My wants: 

• Hockey: Pittsburgh Penguins (all eras but particularly Sidney Crosby and Marc-Andre Fleury), Minnesota Wild (Kirill Kaprizov, Matt Boldy, Brock Faber), Arizona Coyotes (Clayton Keller and Logan Cooley), Young Guns, certified autographs, relics, Pinnacle Masks, enforcers, minor league hockey (all eras). 
• Baseball: relics of players from the beginning of baseball through the 1990s. I would also like to pick up a few Paul Skenes cards if anyone is trading him. 

Any size trade is fine

PWE is always preferred and has worked fine even for relics - please don't waste extra money on postage!

Trading for ONLY cards I need.  I will consider misprints and others not listed here.   Nebraska Cornhusker Football players.    Will buy if the price is right.

Not trading/selling any of my PC cards.

Selling cheap:   you name the cards and a fair price. I'm easy to work with.   I like getting cards to people for their PC.   

Like a lot of us here I have a lot of cards not listed.   Will try to list more players when asked to.

All sets that are listed here are for sale/trade.

Mainly doing PWE.

I verify before accepting Hope you verify before offering.

Matt Kenseth (NASCAR) is main priority. Attempting 100% completion of known cards. Primarily collecting racing, basketball, and unusual cards that grab my attention.

Kenseth collection is currently over 2,300 different cards and slowly closing in on 50% completion.

Note: If proposing a transaction, please message me prior to sending proposals if you do not have a US address for shipping.

trying Something new with trading to try and manage my time better. I will have trades turned off from Sometime Sunday night to sometime on Thursday. Then I will open up trading for the weekend. I will pull cards Sunday night and send them out Monday mornings, (Tuesday when needed due to Holidays.)

I was out of collecting for almost 20 years, I think 2001 was my last full year collecting. Started to get back into it in 2021 because my two oldest boys are developing a passion for it and it rekindled mine.

I am a pastor, just moved to NE Nebraska and have  with 8 young kids. Needless to say, buying/purchasing just isn't in the budget for the foreseeable future.

PCs of Mike Schmidt, Jose Cruz JR (#5), Dan Wilson (#3 on TCDB as of 8/23), Pat Kelly (#1)

Passive PCs of Casey Candaele, Andy Benes in Mariners uniform, Any surname of Creel, (John Creel #1) & (Keith Creel #4) and will hold on to any Bo Jackson, Julio Rodriguez & most Shohei Otahnis I pull from packs. 

I am a set builder at heart, with a soft preference for Topps Base Sets and Early (through 93) Upper Deck. I have or am working on 1984-2002 Topps & 1989-1996 Upper Deck, plus others...

One Son is a set builder and the other collects Father/Son, Brother/Brother, etc MLB duos

Special Project: All Baseball cards with the1965 Topps design (2014 Heritage, 2021 redux, reprints, Archives, etc…)

Biggest priorities: PCs, (nothing will get me to jump at a trade quicker than a Mike Schmidt or a Pat Kelly (playing career '91-99) that I dont already have!)  & my '65 Topps design Special Project... then the rest of the sets collecting. Newest and Heritage, then 90's then 80s in that order...

Lowest Priorities: '89 and '91 Upper Deck, '89 and '92 Fleer, '88, '92, '92 Donruss

Sets where I dont care about the variants (building a set with one card per number, regardless of DOTS or border patterns or print codes): '88 Donruss, '90 Donruss, '92 Fleer, '92 Leaf, 92 Donruss, 91 Upper Deck

Sets where I DO care about the Variants (trying to build a master set): '89 Donruss, '91 Donruss, '91 Topps (except blacklight VARs), '94 Topps and '92 Topps Gold Winners and PC's
Basically, feel free to ask because there are some I dont care about the VARs.

Lastly, I love finding opportunities for PIFS and adding extras into agreed upon trades. My motto is, You cant out give God and the more cards I get rid of, the more I can sort and list and I also know how I have been blessed  by the generosity of others.

I collect only Saints cards and anything Archie Manning.  My prime collection is every regular Topps issued Saints card and all oddball Saints cards, ie. food, starting lineup, Tuff Stuff, playing cards type items.  I recently started collecting all card company Saints cards.  My new thing is collecting Shaq cards.

5 cards incoming is a minimum for trades, please! (Unless it's a higher-value card)

I am prioritizing my collecting on Nebraska Cornhuskers currently, so any trades for those former players are preferred.

I care about VARs/variations/parallels. If it's documented that way on TCDb, that's the one I'm looking for! Please take a little time to confirm your cards being offered are correctly documented. Easy traps that everyone falls into are 1990s ProCards/CMC cardbacks and football hobby base versus retail base.

Declining trade offers with no message is of little use to the person initiating the trade, show some effort to those putting together trade offers and take a few seconds to note why the trade doesn't work in its current state. A few moments to communicate can lead to a deal getting done!

On the flip side, please stop sending me 1-4 card trades showing that you didn't read/ignored my top message in bold, respect for time goes both ways!

About Me:
KC Royals and Nebraska Cornhuskers Team Collector, and Alex Gordon/Jermaine Dye Super Collector. TCDb enthusiast!

12/4/2023 - Updated my PC lists, so there will be a mass of Jackie Robinson, Roberto Clemente & Corbin Burnes cards available for sale/trade here soon.  As I mention below, my want list is quite narrow, so I am more than willing to sell cards if we don't match up for a trade.  

Came across tcdb.com towards the end of 2019, and I have now completed over 1,500 transactions, with over 23,000 cards changing hands!  Love everything about this site.  I have met so many cool people from all over the Country, and even a few from Canada and beyond. (Just completed a trade to Finland, as a matter of fact).

Stole this from another member, but......my goal is to have zero cards in my For Sale/Trade List.  So keep the proposals comin'!

(I know my Want List is relatively small, so I am certainly willing to Sell cards if we don't have enough matches to work out a trade)

My PC list is as follows (with TCDB rankings as of 2/9/2024):

NBA: Giannis (4), Dirk Nowitzki (4), and Tim Duncan (2).  

NFL: Sterling Sharpe (3), and Don Majkowski (2)

MLB: Robin Yount (7), Tony Gwynn (6), Hal Morris (3), Mark Grace (7), Pat Listach (1) and Mark Langston (1)

Golf: Rickie Fowler (2)  & Joel Dahmen (2)

WWE: Lita (3)

UFC: Conor McGregor (4)

Non-Sport: Eddie Vedder, Judah Friedlander, Big Jay Oakerson, The Brothers Osborne (TJ & John), Rob Riggle, Bert Kreischer, Tom Segura, Charlie Berens, Post Malone and Brody Stevens

Although I currently live in Florida, I was born in Milwaukee.....hence my obsession with Wisconsin sports teams.  Ha.

Please check out my For Sale/Trade list, and feel free to message me or send me trade proposals any time.....let's see what we can get done!  (I don't necessarily trade based on "book value", but rather the value to me, so please feel free to counter if I propose a trade that you feel is unfair.  I also have no rules about "insert for insert" or any of that nonsense, so don't be shy to shoot me a proposal)

Always looking for Bryce Harper cards I don't have. If you have some, send me a message or offer.

I am NOT selling or trading any cards in my collection.

​​​I send a lot of proposals out and usually don't ever get many. Always feel free to counter.

Pretty much always willing to trade. Usually prefer PWE trades but will always consider bigger. The most cards I've sent in a trade so far has been around 50. Would like to break that record!

Always let me know if you are missing a card or receive a wrong/damaged card because I would get replacements for you. I will always make things right.

I should have all VAR cards listed correctly. Let me know if you receive a wrong one.

I will also be interested in memorabilia, autograph, or serial numbered Phillies cards. Haven't added them to my wantlist yet and don't plan to but might at some point. 

I am slowly tracking my WHOLE Phillies collection which will be a long process as I am still trying to figure out how to organize them.

I have lots of numbered/auto cards on my trade list, which I can get rid of pretty easily. Just recently, I made sure my fs/t list was organized and up to date. Haven't added many cards to it recently but hope to sometime.

Haven't bought anything on this site yet and don't really plan to, but I might change my mind.

Would be willing to sell. If we can't work out a trade we can work out a sale. Send me an offer on what you want, I will give you a fair price on them.
