Player collections of: Eduardo Perez, Garret Anderson, Alex Rodriguez, Ted Williams, Jim Rice, Dustin Pedroia and Andrew McCutchen
2022 represents an anniversary of collecting trading cards for 70 years. I spent 50 years as a set builder of baseball cards, but now I just collect cards of the above players with an occasional small set collection. At one time, I had an collection of complete sets of Topps and Bowman baseball cards (plus others) from 1954 forward plus quite a few cards from the 1952 Topps & 1953 Topps and Bowman sets. During the late 1980s and early 1990s I sold off the majority of those sets but still continued completing sets until 2002.
I've been trading online since 1994 and welcome any trade offers. If I offer a trade, the cards normally have already been pulled prior to an acceptance, counter or decline. It is not a problem for me to re-file or exchange cards in a trade if needed. I do keep records of my trading with my partners addresses and occasionally recheck those traders for future trades or sometimes just send along a PIF (pay it forward). My one major disappointment with this site is that I did not find it many years before I did. I will usually mail cards out promptly with tracking, however letely I have used PWEs for relatively small value trades. Saying this, I welcome trade offers. I do not expect to ever wind up with compete collections of any of the players I collect, nor do I want to. I try to just enjoy my collecting habit and strive to make new friends in the hobby!
Last but not least, I do not sell cards, trades only.
