I target MLB related cards only, but have absorbed others in buying a few collectors out.

I Personally Collect Alex Bregman, Yordan Alvarez, Luis Robert and Aaron Judge cards. 

I have started trying to assemble some sets that seem to be more readily available, like "TOPPS - Stars of MLB" and others that are not as readily available as SMLB, it seems, like "Select '96 - Team Nucleus".  I am also trying to collect the various "Gallery of Stars" sets from Panini/Diamond Kings.  But in truth, I have just been collecting everything I can get my hands on.  I have, however, noticed that my interests are changing.

My Main Collections :  Topps All-Star Rookie Trophy cards ///  KC Royals  ///  GB Packers  ///  Vintage Baseball  ///

TRADES: Modern Cards (1983 - Present) - Please offer NM or better - no ding corners / should have sharp corners and edges / no creases.  Mine will be the same, unless noted.               Vintage Cards (prior to 1983) - Let me know condition.   All reasonable trade offers considered.  (Sorry, no international trades accepted at this time)

To Purchase Cards from me:  Check out my store at buysportscards.com (BSC), just click link below.  You can also still check out my webstore and ebay links below - all reasonable offers considered.

I am one of the members that helps within the site.  I work closely with the IRs and can answer most questions.  Please send me a message if there is anything I can assist with.  If I don't know, I can certainly try to figure it out or direct you to a resource.

I am a player collector...collecting Robin Yount and Ersan Ilyasova

I like to trade!!  I mainly prefer PWE trades but am set up for larger trades too.  I have a scale at home and the wife works at the post office, so I rarely need to go there.  I like to get my trade list into the hands of members that could use them.  If this means that I give a lot more than I receive, this is fine with me.  You get the cards you need; I get the space back in my area.  I am open to buying and selling, but mainly, I am a trader.  I have mostly gone through and updated for the correct variations in my trade listing.  I also have a spreadsheet that I have documented my Glow vs Non-Glow backed '91 Topps.  Let me help you fill your collecting needs.

My primary collection is something regional, I really want to collect the old Brewer Police cards, they were issued for each community throughout Wisconsin.  But I have been especially looking for the Robin Yount cards.  I think there are over 825 different police sets issued between 1982 and 1993, with over 915 different cards that I am very interested in (He has two cards in the 1993 sets).  Currently, I have 339 different Yount cards.  It's actually been fun, but I have a long way to go.  Any of the other Brewers cards that I have would be available if you are interested but let me check on the condition.  Since I am getting a lot of them through thrift stores, eBay and rummage sales, some are pretty ragged.  I also have Packers Police cards that would potentially be available too.

A fun project that I have started is gathering information on Robin's 3,142 hits.  I have been putting a collection together of him and the pitchers that he hit off of.  This means that I am on the hunt for many, many copies of Robin's Topps cards, one copy for every hit within that year.  But also, many American League pitchers.  I plan to match up the pitcher's card with Robin's card and add a little write up of the at bat and the game.  I'm such a nerd.  UPDATE - Still need over half of Robin's Topps cards.  But I have done very well in regard to his pitchers.  I only need 1 (1976 Topps Catfish) and 1 other to have upgraded!!  Big thanks to everyone that has helped!!

I personally have a very small collection and wants, but recently made the decision to build the 1986 Topps football and baseball sets.  I know they aren't worth much, but it will be fun to try it out.  Maybe this will be the nudge I need to expand my interests and build more sets.

Please read and understand the BUY/SELL/TRADE INFORMATION below before proposing a transaction.  While some believe this causes pain and suffering, I believe it ensures a great transaction.  If you happen to believe the former, please seek out a member with an empty profile instead.  Thank you.

BUY / SELL / TRADE INFORMATION

While everything I have is for sale/trade, anything listed in my collection will be very expensive.  You're welcome to ask if I'm willing to part with a card, just don't expect a "yes".

With the exception of some complete sets, my collection is stored in sleeves > pages > binders and sorted by player > year > set > card number.  Transactions involving one player or a few players tend to be pulled quickly, but transactions with many different players take longer.  Not all cards with variations are logged properly, but I am happy to confirm that applicable cards in a proposed transaction are the correct variation.

BUYING:

• I will only buy the 2020 Topps Heritage #453 Alex Bregman Throwback Variation.

SELLING:

• I will only sell for a $10 minimum + USPS cost (PWE with no tracking internationally OR bubble envelope/box with tracking within the US).  "No Fee" payments only.  Full payment must be received prior to shipment.

TRADING:

• Condition: <1987 = EX or better and >=1987 NM - I'll expect cards from a smoke-free environment.  If you're not sure you're card(s) will pass muster, let me know and/or share a picture.

• Feedback: If you wish to trade and have little or no feedback, I will request that I receive your cards before I ship.

• Communication: I prefer to work within proposed transactions as soon as possible, but feel welcome to message me first if you're thinking about a larger trade that will take a lot of time and thought to put together.  As long as you're willing to communicate (I am), I'm comfortable with as many counter proposals as it takes to come to an agreement and then confirm that cards exist and are in good shape BEFORE the transaction is accepted by one of us.

• Postage: Please mention if you want to limit the card count for postage reasons as I tend to look for ways to make proposed trades larger.  I also tend to use bubble envelopes or boxes, but I'll do PWEs for single card trades or when mailing international.  Unless we discuss it as part of the transaction, I do not expect any specific method from you.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm a long time collector since the mid 80's, and now as I'm nearing the back half of my life, I'm trying to shape up my collection rather than just accumulating anything and everything.   Overall my main focuses are:

• Topps Base Runs of HOF and Favorite Players- Every Topps Base card of a player from RC to last base Topps card
• 1952 Bowman-  Trying to finish the set by 2025 
• Texas Rangers, Arkansas Razorbacks, NW Arkansas Naturals in general
• Player PCs: Tony Gwynn, Darryl Strawberry, Michael Young, Wil Myers, Adrian Beltre 

# 1 ranked collection on TCDB of Wil Myers, Parker Bridwell and Christian Colon

Trying to reach #1 on Michael Young, Ian Kinsler and Elvis Andrus but haven't logged collection yet

Tyring to reach top 50 on Tony Gwynn, Darryl Strawberry and Adrian Beltre

Trading:  Any trade should make both parties feel like they are better off than when they started.   Please feel free to counter any trade I send with what would make you happy if what I offer doesn't do it (as long as it's still fair).  I'll do the same on trades I get, but I'm pretty easy!

I'm open to any size trade, my favorites are PWE trades up to around 10-12 cards for ease of packaging, but again, I'm up for anything.

Always looking for a good trade. Let me know if I have anything on your Want list. 

Tony Gwynn Player Collection

Carlton Fisk Player Collection

Multiple Sports Players such as Michael Jordan, Danny Ainge, Deion Sanders, Bo Jackson, Jim Thorpe, Dave DeBusschere, Brian Jordan, etc.

Open to all trades. Prefer to mail in PWE. For vintage trades, I am looking for cards in EX condition or better.

I respond and ship quickly.
