Collecting all Topps Baseball base sets from 1956 to 2020. 

Complete Topps sets (as of 03/22/23):  1974, 1975, 1976, 1977, 1978, 1979, 1980's, 1990's, 2000's, 2010's, 2020

If I have something on my ForSale/Trade list that you need and you have nothing to trade me, I am more than willing to sell most cards on my FS/T list at a very reasonable price...especially to fellow set collectors! If you want all top name rookie cards however, I probably will not be willing to discount very much. Just sayin'. Usually it works best, easiest, and fastest if you just send a proposal with what the card(s) are worth to you.

VAR's: Hate them, but I get it...some people want every card in a set including different variations. I do the best I can in identifying all the different variations and listing them correctly. However, if it's important to you to get a specific variation in a trade, please let me know so I can be sure I have the correct one for you. That is important if you need a specific variation, as I have been known to make a mistake every once in a while on identifying correct variations...especially when the variation is printed so small that an eagle with a magnifying glass couldn't read it!

Let's have some fun, let's trade!

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 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 usually 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.

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 displace 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

8/24/2023 - UPDATE: I've done quite a few sales following my prior note.  Thank you to all who sent proposals.  I am turning trading back on, but will definitely still consider selling to anyone who is interested.  Thank you!! 

Came across tcdb.com towards the end of 2019, and I have now completed over 1,400 transactions, with over 22,000 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 9/28/2023):

NBA: Giannis (5), Dirk Nowitzki (4), and Tim Duncan (2).  

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

MLB: Aaron Ashby (1), Roberto Clemente (1), Jackie Robinson (2), Robin Yount (8), Tony Gwynn (6), Hal Morris (3), Mark Grace (7), Ethan Small (1), Pat Listach (1), Corbin Burnes (1) and Mark Langston (1)

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)

Hey everybody, Jeremy here.

Big time Husker fan as I've grown up and lived in Nebraska my entire life. I'm an alum and will cheer for any sport.

Been a card collector since a wee child. Took a 15 year hiatus in college and post-college and getting back into it collecting my childhood favorites. Boy have things changed! I'll dabble in some new cards, thus, I have newer cards for trade as well.

My goal: is to help you complete your sets and/or collect your favorite players or teams. I only have 1-5% of my collection logged into TCDB thus far, so most likely have many more in your want list then what appears. I'm very open and actually prefer trading 100-400 cards for 5-15 cards in return. I understand a number of my want list includes potentially "higher" priced cards ($1-$20+), so if I need to trade 1:10 or 1:20 if you're open to that, I am as well and will ship accordingly. As stated above, I love helping others complete sets as I have a TON of doubles and commons.

I will always send PWE, unless the trade is over 25+ cards, then use a padded envelope.

I enjoy collecting: (ranking week of 10/16 ---> 10/23)
* Shaquille O'Neal (#26 ---> #26) (4.0% Complete)
* Ken Griffey Jr. (#42 ---> #42) (3.5% Complete)
* Dan Marino (#16 ---> #17) (4.4% Complete)
* Kobe Bryant (#35 ---> #34) (1.4% Complete)
* Michael Jordan (#137 ---> #137) (2.5% Complete)
* Lebron James (#32 ---> #32) (0.7% Complete)
* Alex Rodriguez (#43 ---> #43) (1.3% Complete)
* Ricky Williams (#9 ---> #9) (4.3% Complete)

Would love to eventually be in the Top 100, even Top 50 in all the above at some point in time.

Always open to fair offers and selling any cards in my FS/FT list, as I have a BUNCH of cards I'm looking to purge as well. As I continue to get back into it, I may grow my wants/needs in completing sets, etc. I accept cards in all conditions, they don't have to be perfect.

Appreciate all considerations and will try to communicate if a card isn't in "gem mint" condition as well, as I do have some that aren't, as I actually traded cards waaaayyyyy before TCDB came along!

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 team sets for the Cleveland Guardians/Indians from all years.

Hello: I joined this site in March 2021. I'm still putting my cards that I have into this website. I'm still organizing all my cards so it will take me some time to input them into this web site. I'm willing to make a trade if I need cards to complete a set.

The trades that I have done have gone very smoothly. The trades I've made so far have been PWE (Plain White Envelope) shipping. 

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:

1988 Donruss - Stan Musial Puzzle

1989 Donruss - Warren Spahn Puzzle

1992 Donruss - Rod Carew Puzzle

1991 Upper Deck - Baseball Heroes: Nolan Ryan

1991 Upper Deck - Team Logo Holograms

2007 Topps -All Stars

Down the road I'm looking to sell all my cards. At my age (late 60's) 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. 

Doing more selling than trading lately just because my wantlist is rather small.  Feel free to reach out to me if interested in cards especially in bulk as i am looking to downsize and giving great deals on all cards.

Looking for any  Comic Cut Panels from X-Men, Captain America, Avengers, Spiderman, etc! whether on my wantlist or not.

All cards in the FS/FT list are for sale all Years, commons, semistars, stars, teams, inserts, etc. just ask!

Also, willing to sell in bulk for team collectors across all of the years.

​​​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.

PLEASE NOTE: My FS/FT may be a bit inaccurate due to a couple of transactions outside TCDb.  Please don't let that stop you from trying to work a deal though. I'll confirm that I have all of the involved cards before I accept a proposal. However, I do apologize in advance if I am unable to find a particular card that you're looking for from my list for a trade/purchase.

Let's make some trades!
------------------

Anything I have available in my FS/FT list is absolutely for sale.

------------------

About my collecting goals:

I am primarily focused on building vintage baseball sets. (If it's a vintage baseball card not on my want list, I might still be interested.  Just ask!) 
Many modern cards on my wantlist, especially the Donruss puzzle pieces, are very low priority, but that doesn't mean that I'm not interested in trading for them.

Trade proposals:

I try to make fair and balanced trade proposals.  However, if I make one that seems imbalanced, please know that it wasn't intentional. I am always happy to review and consider counter-proposals. I am always looking for opportunities to "get to a 'yes'" when working through a potential trade. Some trade proposals just don't work out for one reason or another, and that's OK.

I will try to respond to all trade proposals in some form or fashion: a message, a counter-proposal, etc.  I respectfully request the same courtesy from other members.

I am happy to see if we can work something out, even if you don't have something from my wantlist. I'll often look at cards that are available on someone's FS/T list to see if there is anything I can use as "trade bait" in exchange for something on my FS/T list that a fellow collector has on their wantlist.

Card condition:

Conditions of cards, especially vintage, can vary. Regarding card condition, I generally don't like using the letter grading scale (e.g. Ex, VG, G, etc.) because those terms mean different things to different people. (Even the professional grading companies can't agree on what specific terms mean.)

I've tried to note my collection with any egregious condition issues (such as a marked checklist or very poor card condition), but sometimes I might have missed making specific notes here or there. If you are looking for specific condition of a card (especially vintage), please DESCRIBE what you are looking for such as "no creases/writing", "no marked checklists", or something similar.  It will help in trade conversations; I'm also more than willing to send photos of my cards. (If you have Twitter, that's an easy way I've found to swap photos and chat about a trade discussion. If you don't have Twitter, I will usually provide links to photos of the cards involved in a trade if requested; i usually use PostImages to share links to photos of cards involved in a trade.)

Regarding incoming vintage cards, I'm generally seeking to avoid cards with any major blemishes such as creasing, paper loss, writing, etc. Some corner/edge wear is generally OK as long as it's not too extensive.  Centering is generally not an issue unless the card is miscut. I will sometimes make condition exceptions on star cards that might make good placeholders.

For modern cards, I'm looking for NM/M condition.

When in doubt, exchanging photos is helpful. For easy photo sharing, I recommend using https://postimages.org/

---------------------------------------

I also collect memorabilia from:

• baseball (especially HOFers, current/former Dodgers, Giants, Yankees, and/or Angels)
• football (SF 49ers)

J. Buhner, A.Rhodes, C.Bosio,  D. Wilson, J.Nelson, J.Kruk, R.Dibble, M.Blowers, R.Myers, D.Boyd, M. Blowers, M. Fidrych, B. Blyleven, D. Parker.

DISCLOSURE:

My Topps 59' 60' 61' and 62's are all Ex or Ex+ and looking for good homes.

My OPC/Topps 70's vary widely.  I hesitate to grade, but I do  know the parameters.  Ask for condition and I will put eyeballs on the card and let you know.

My Topps 79' and 80' are weathered.  Some dings, soft edges. Pesentable. Handled by me as a child.  If its creased, it isnt listed here

Everything else Ex+/Nm or better.

I'm here for fun, this is my hobby and my escape from the day-to-day.

My collecting priorities are (1) pre-1980 Cleveland Indians and Cleveland Browns; (2) Other Cleveland players/teams; (3) other athletes that I find interesting (e.g., Clemente, Aaron, Dr. J., Bo and several other HOFs) and (4) the 1974 & 1975 Topps baseball sets.  This is pretty well reflected on my want list. 

Open to any sized trades, but my preference is pwe in the 3-18 card range (each way).  I'm not a stickler on condition for cards that I'm receiving.  Generally speaking, if it's a card I'm looking for and its in one piece, I'm open to it. 

I realize that many people do value the card condition much more than I do.  I do my best to make sure that the cards in my for sale/trade list don't have any major issues (creases, ink, etc.).  I'll pull cards before offering or accepting a trade.  If I notice an issue, I'll do my best to let you know in advance.  The older the cards, the greater the likelihood that they could be "well-loved".  I am more than willing to send/post pictures if requested.  

*** trades closed at  this time**

Will listen to small sale offers if I have something you need a lot.*******

PS I have a side PC of Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis

All Red Sox Greats...Betts, Bogaerts, Devers, Ortiz,  Garciaparra, Pedro, Manny, the usual suspects...  good on pre & 70s /80s. Missed most 96 through approximately 2019 and Odd balls. Filling in gaps of those years. 

Also PC Modern Hall of Famers &  Acuna, Othani, Soto, Trout,  Judge, JRod

Do not "NEED" anything. Simply want to trade my surplus to those who would like it for what I like. Prefer to trade. 

Somewhat technically challenged & limited time for learning my way around the site I may be slow to respond or follow up immediately. I have many many more cards for trade/ sale  & wants/ need that have yet to be listed. Ask..I might have it.

*Patience and Integrity is appreciated.  

My main goal is to collect complete sets of every Topps flagship set ever! Also going for all the 2023 inserts. I have a long way to go haha

My priorities right now are:

1. 89 Topps

2. 91 Topps

3. 23 Topps inserts

Complete: 86, 87, 88, 90, 23

Close: 89, 91, 83, 22, 23 Topps chrome

My favorite teams are Chicago White Sox, Chicago Bears, and Chicago Bulls.

Also collecting Leury Legend (Leury Garcia) and Jose Abreu cards, but it's not a priority right now.

Looking to trade away 2023 Topps flagship/heritage/chrome but might be able to trade away other years/sets at times.

Mostly looking to trade baseball but I'm open to other offers. Will only ship to the USA.

I am first and foremost a set builder, though I'm always happy to get cards from my favorite players and teams.

I prefer to work on 1 or 2 large trades at a time, but will entertain smaller offers.

I do a pretty good job of keeping up with the VAR's, but I am sometimes behind on the most up-to-date ones.

Getting back into the hobby after ~30 years, which means the bulk of my current collection is junk era wax that includes a good number of HOF players as well as commons. I'd love to trade those to people that are looking to complete sets or collect their favorite team and/or player. 

My personal collection is focused on Andre Dawson, Kirby Puckett, Dylan Cease, and any other White Sox (current or retired) players.

I have also started a new project to collect the 1975 Topps Chicago White Sox cards and added a few players with smaller card runs to my PC: Julio Cruz, Ron Karkovice, and Rudy Law.

Prefer to do smaller trades via PWE but am open to bigger trades too. Not looking to buy cards right now until I reduce volume on cards outside of my PC.

TCDB Rankings as of April 11, 2023:

• Andre Dawson - #9
• Dylan Cease - #3

*** Update - April 11, 2023 ***

I have now initiated the quest to begin set building and my focus will initially be on completing the Topps Flagship sets from the 1980's that I began collecting as a kid.

When proposing or reviewing trades, I am mostly looking for base for base trades. Trade offers skewed towards requesting parallels, inserts, SPs, etc. for a larger quantity of base will most often be countered or declined. I am open to cross-decade trades too, meaning I will send newer base for junk era base or vice versa depending on what we each need. Open to trades of all sizes that meet these criteria.

For vintage cards (pre-1980 for my purposes), I only trade vintage for vintage.

Thank you for reading and look forward to trading!

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 10/25/2023]

Note: Currently transactions are OFF.

When 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.)

From 1951 on, Topps baseball base sets and Gypsy Queen base sets; Pre 1951, all 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!!

Just looking for trades at the moment. Purchases are on hold for a bit. Thanks. 

My PC teams are: 

Baseball: Phillies & Padres
Basketball: Utah Jazz.
Football: Philadelphia Eagles 
College: BYU

Players I especially enjoy collecting:

Basketball:
Karl Malone, John Stockton, Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, and Damian Lillard. 

Baseball:
Bryce Harper, Tony Gwynn, Manny Machado Xander Bogaerts, Juan Soto and Fernando Tatis Jr. 

Football:
Donovan McNabb, Duce Staley, Randall Cunningham, Kyler Murray and Zach Wilson. 

Also enjoy building sets and collecting star and HOFer rookie cards in the major sports, as well as in person and TTM autographs.

Still in the long process of uploading my current collection of baseball cards.

Just listing some 1998 Topps Tek. You can make me an offer if you're interested but I'll be honest, due to the complete absurdity that people charge for commons in this set, I will probably only be willing to trade for patterns I'm missing of Matt Williams.

New to the site since 1/25/23 after a 20-year break in collecting and have just completed 100 trades on 4/21/23!

Born and raised in Cleveland and have been a huge baseball fan ever since I remember.  I credit my grandfather with my love of the game and love of the team.  My first memories are of the playoff teams of the 90's and I've been collecting ever since.  My goal in collecting is to collect as many different players as possible who wore the uniform.  This started out as collecting all flagship sets over the years, but has expanded to many less known sets as well.  Eventually I may even look to include inserts, parallels, etc.

I have also recent begun collecting complete Topps sets due to a large lot I purchased.  So far its been 1980-Present and this is more of a passive collection, my primary is and will always be my main PC which is the Cleveland Guardians.  

I will consider all trades, big or small, to USA and Canada.  As a rule of thumb I would prefer to trade base for base.  I do have some inserts and short prints.  I will consider trading inserts for base cards on a case by case basis. For the short prints I am hoping to trade for other short prints on my want list.  As far as condition is concerned I am looking for NRMT for 1980-Present, 1970s EX-NRMT, anything prior to 1960 I will consider almost any condition (although I would ask for pictures prior to accepting). 

Priority of my collections are as follows

1. My Cleveland Indians/Guardians collection, trade requests involving any of these cards is most likely to get my attention.

2. My Topps Base sets, I am diligently working on completing my 1980s Topps sets as well as my 2023 set as well.  I am also starting on my 1990s and finishing up my 2011 sets. sub priority within this group is finishing my 80s and 2023 sets.  The 2023 Set has become a combined endeavor with my son who is enjoying the trading and pack opening.

3. My sons 1992-93 Upper Deck basketball.  He has most of the low series, but he still have most of the high series left to get.

4. Any other sets on my wantlist, such as my 1991 Fleer are a distant priority.  Trades involving only these cards and requesting higher end cards like inserts are more likely to be declined.
