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.

Update: Temporarily turning off trading due to a heavier work schedule. I will sporadically turn on trading from time to time--just need to slow down the pace of trading so that my trading partners aren't waiting so long to get deals done.

Topps Baseball (flagship 1969-present) and now Topps Heritage Baseball 2018-present along with some oddball/food-issued cards. I'm also trying to complete my sets of older Topps football and baseball (1969-73) in NM condition (sorry for being a condition snob). Always happy to leave positive feedback.

If my For Sale/Trade list has pre-1975 vintage or SPs or serial-#'s cards you want, I will trade them for pre-1975 vintage or SPs or low serial-#'s cards (mix or match) that I need, i.e. a pre-1975 vintage for SP or a SP for low SN or low SN for pre-1975 vintage, then offers will be happily be considered. :)

TRADING

Helpful suggestions if you would like to trade: I usually prefer tradings inserts/short prints for inserts/short prints, vintage for vintage, junk wax for junk wax, and modern base-set cards for modern base-set cards. I'm also willing to take modern cards for junk wax (1980s and early 1990s). These are just general guidelines, and if you want to make a deal different from that, just message me. I'm sure we can figure something out. Please don't offer me a bunch of base-set cards in return for a handful of higher-value cards, such as inserts or desirable rookie cards.

WHAT I'M WORKING ON

Modern baseball set priorities:

**Topps Update (2022) 3 to go
**Topps Heritage (2023) 121 to go (32 non-short print)
**Donruss (2023) 182 to go

Priorities on insert sets:

**2017-23 35th Anniversary sets (I love them all)
**2017 Heritage: 1968 Topps Game
**2017-23 Heritage: New Age Performers

Football priority: Cards of former Alabama players. To a lesser extent, I'm interested in former Alabama basketball players, too. Also, I'd like to complete the 1982 and 1989 Topps football sets, but cards need to be NrMt because all the ones I have for both sets are NrMt or better.

CARDS FOR SALE/TRADE

My goal is reduce the number of trade cards to zero. Any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. What I'm offering:

**Baseball, 1981-current: These are almost always Ex-Mt or Nr-Mt. (If they aren't, I've got condition marked.) If you ask for a particular card, I'll check condition before accepting the deal.

**Baseball, 1961-80: I've listed condition for everything baseball from 1961-80.

**Football: Everything 1980 and newer is almost certainly Ex-Mt or Nr-Mt. I've listed condition for 1982 and everything 1979 and older. The 1969 and 1970 cards are almost all Poor to Fair, with a handful of Good sprinkled in. (Sorry, I got them years ago from a friend who didn't take care of his cards.) I've got some 1970 cards to trade that are Ex-Mt or better. 

**Basketball: I've got some 1981-82 Topps listed. All those cards are Ex-Mt or Nr-Mt. I've also got some 1990-91 Hoops and 1990-91 Fleer cards listed. They're all NrMt.

MY OWN CARD RANKINGS

—Where I rank, as of November 6, 2023, in TCDB rankings: Shaun Alexander (21), Bob Baumhower (1), Cornelius Bennett (58), Paul Bryant (1), John Hannah (1), Bobby Humphrey (9), Wilbur Jackson (1), Lee Roy Jordan (1), E.J. Junior (1), Barry Krauss (1), Woodrow Lowe (2), Marty Lyons (2), Johnny Musso (1), Joe Namath (11), Tony Nathan (1), Ozzie Newsome (3), Jeff Rutledge (1), Ken Stabler (6), Bart Starr (76), Dwight Stephenson (1), Derrick Thomas (87), Richard Todd (1)  and Mike Washington (1).

Like so many, I got sucked back into collecting during the pandemic but I'm not going anywhere.  I am usually working on sets (slowly working to get them into here but have a google doc with all my builds).  My 13 year son collects Pokemon, Sony Michel, Tatum and Brown, Benintendi, and Tuukka Rask and David Pastrnak.  My daughter collects mascots and women athletes (especially soccer and basketball).

My biggest hobby accomplishment was collecting every Topps flagship gold cup rookie ever...from Willie McCovey to Wander Franco and everyone in between.

I pride myself on being an easy trader and easy seller most of the time.  If I have cards you want and you're not a jerk, we'll figure it out.

Find us on twitter at ccc_collects.

Happy Collecting

 

Things I need to add since being active here on tcdb:

- PWE is assumed so let's discuss if you think otherwise.

- When I send a trade proposal, I usually include the message "Thoughts?"  That is short for: Hi my name is Chris.  I would love to work out a trade that is good for both us.  If you don't see a match, no worries.  Thoughts? is just easier.

- If I withdraw a trade too quickly, feel free to send a proposal.  It's usual because I'm making a proposal with some of those cards (mine or what I've requested) and it's to keep things straight if I withdraw one.  I appreciate not everyone responds right away or even within a couple of days.  Fortunately, you're not all degenerates like me.

Detroit Tigers, HOF's, Topps sets

Was a Junk Wax era kid who has gotten back into the hobby in the summer of '22.

Current Focus is Topps set and insert set building. Working backwards from 2021 and forward from 1991:

'91 Topps = 80%

'21 Topps = 93% = 47 to go

'22 Topps '87 Inserts (Series 1, Series 2, Update and Chrome):

  • Series 1 = 100% complete!
  • Series 2 = 99% = 1 to go
  • All Stars = 78%
  • Series 1 Chrome MOJO = 12%
  • Series 2 Chrome MOJO = 10%
  • Chrome = 100% complete!
  • Update = 70%
  • Update Chrome MOJO = 10.7%

'23 Topps '88 inserts (Series 1, Series 2, Update and Chrome):

  • Series 1 = 48%
  • Series 2 = 12%
  • All Stars = 14%%
  • Series 1 Chrome MOJO = 9%
  • Series 2 Chrome MOJO = 0%
  • Chrome
  • Update
  • Update Chrome MOJO

Although this is where I'm focused at the moment, I'm still open for any trade proposals.

I enjoy proposing/accepting trades of all sizes, bring 'em on! With that said, I will leave a proposal up for 48 hours and if there is no traction on the trade, I'll withdraw it. No hard feelings, it just helps me keep track of trades better this way.

I'm fine with trading different eras or sports as long as both sides are happy with it. I do prefer to trade modern #'d cards for #'d cards, parallels for parallels, inserts for inserts, ect, but again, as long as both sides are happy with the offers then I'm flexible.

I take pride in packaging to ensure that your cards reach you in top condition.

PC Detroit Tigers = Kaline, Trammell, Whitaker, Morris, C. Fielder (DET only), Cabrera (DET only), Verlander (DET only), Mize, Skubal, Manning, Torkelson and Greene.

Non Detroit Tigers PC = Nolan Ryan

 Always looking to do trades.  I prefer PWE (4-27 card trades), but I'm not afraid to work out a big trade. I usually send PWE for smaller trades unless we work something out before the deal gets done, just FYI.  

Finished adding most of my football and baseball auto and relics for trade..  They will ship BMWT so all I ask is you make the trade worth the shipping and I'd prefer to do like for like on the autos and relics.  But I'm always open to GOOD offers.

Concentrating on completing my Topps Baseball and Football Flagship sets.  And my Packers Team sets from 1970-2015 Topps Flagship, and base Allen and Ginter sets.  And of course any Robin Yount cards I don't have.

 

Only shipping packages and PWEs to the US. 

PWE to Canada only. (of course for the right trade and cards we might be able to work out a deal for a package)

Sorry no other international shipping (just too darn expensive).

I mostly collect Comic Books!

However my trading card focus is mainly Marvel trading cards also I'm a big fan of Aliens, Predator, Robocop, or Terminator. I do like Batman and related characters, but I collect some of the dc universe stuff.

I started collecting Cards in 1990 and It was more sports cards focused collecting back then. I grew up in a suburb of Pittsburgh so I loved anything pirates, penguins, or steelers. I used my trading cards to trade!! A few cowboys cards for an extra milk with lunch or a stack of basketball commons for a few comics! I traded my 1996 fleer michael jordan for a copy of super mario 3 when I got my first nintendo!

Also interested in trading comic books for cards as well. If I have some cards you need and you have a comic book thats on my wantlist I'm happy to trade for it.

also trying to rebuild  my Ben Franklin half dollar collection restarting it from scratch. I sold the whole binder to a collector so, I have only a 53-p and a 52 -d right now. doesn't have to be MS-63 but at least Vf-20 w/legible date ok.

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)

WWE: Lita (4)

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)

Lover of all things baseball and avid card trader.

First and foremost a baseball vintage set collector (1980 and earlier) with my daughter, but we also enjoying opening packs together so secondarily a current baseball set collector as well.

Happy to trade baseball for baseball, and trying to trade all non-baseball cards to make room for more baseball.  

For the most part, when trading baseball for baseball, we would like to trade vintage for vintage, junk wax for junk wax, current for current, etc.

Dot-vars: We are listing variations accurately for trade, but not collecting different variations.  Adding all variations to our want-list to "cast a wide net" but only collecting one variation of each card.

Since I've been asked where our username came from... my daughter picked it for our geocaching name years ago and wanted to carry it over here.  Pretty simple.

Happy to post pictures of cards for trade for any trading partners that need. 

***Constantly updating our want/trade lists so please check back for trades.

Hut Stricklin and Tom Peck racing cards and memorabilia; Hooters Girl/Playmate Lynne Austin cards; and Magic the Gathering Vizzerdrix cards, especially in foreign languages.

A Note regarding my FS/FT list: most of myBaseball  "junk era" sets were initially entered prior to the various new variations added since mid-2020, such as Inc/Inc., */**, etc. The system places everything under variation "A" by default, and though I've tried to update everything there are probably a couple of set I've not sorted yet; just ask if want me to check a specific card or set. I have revised my FS/FT list for 1991 Topps; the listed versions are correct for that set, and the cards showing a grade (usually NRMNT) are those with normal backs. The glow-back cards are those listed without grades.

Regarding trades in general, I'm happy to ship and receive by whatever method you prefer from PWE to insured with tracking so long as it makes sense from both ends. Also, I know I have substantially more on my FS/FT list than my Wantlist, but I'm open to other offers if I have something you need. Everything on my FS/FT list is just waiting to be turned into something I collect and I don't mind if it takes multiple steps to reach that end. Here's my general preference for trades:

1. Obviously, anything on my Wantlist;

2. Anything on your FS/FT list that matches the Wantlist of another member who has someting on my Wantlist (which is any Hut Stricklin, Tom Peck, Lynne Austin, or Vizzerdrix card, even if they don't show up; I don't always remember to add things back to the Wantlist after I get them in a trade, but I'm always looking for dupes);

3. Other Racing cards that have at least as many people looking for them than there are listed as FS/FT;

4. Baseball cards that have at least as many people looking for them than there are listed as FS/FT; 

5. All other cards that have at least as many people looking for them than there are listed as FS/FT; and

6. I'll consider anything else; coins, cds, dvds, books, memorabilia, fossils, whatever--make me an offer.

Let's make a deal.

Working on completing Topps Baseball sets 1960,1969, and 1970.   I have complete sets from 1971 to 1981 But I need to upgrade some as I sort through them.

Also working on modern base sets and some inserts as they catch my interest.

Trying to complete Reds team sets from any year, have most of the 70s covered and am working backwards.  Have a good start on the 60s.  Partial Reds sets from 1980-2020 are sitting in boxes waiting to be sorted.  I have alot of reds duplicates including specials/inserts for former reds stars (Bench, Morgan, etc,)

Have some misc. items I have accumulated that I will try to list like basketball cards, modern baseball.

Still working on updating my collection in the database.

4 October 2023 Update

Prefer to sell at the moment, but am slowly rebuilding my wantlist. Main focus is the collection reorg. I'll be adding cards from my collection to FST as I go so watch for new items. 50% of sales go to Lahaina Restoration Foundation.

Favorites:

Baseball: Boston Red Sox, Dennis Eckersley, Carl Yastrzemski, Harmon Killebrew, Eddie Murray

Football: Brett Favre, Walter Payton, Danny White

Basketball: Boston Celtics & Larry Bird

Hockey: Boston Bruins

Other: AFL/VFL (Aussie Rules Football), NRL (National Rugby League (AU)), Texas Longhorns, Georgia Bulldogs

I enjoy buying large lots of random cards from estates, auctions, yard sales and digging through them to find my favorite players or just anything I don't already have. I'm open to trading/selling. Cards are in various conditions as some are from packs I bought vs. large boxes of randomness bought from various places across the country. 

TRADING: Will process trade requests in the order they are received. FST cards are ExMt or better with a few vintage exceptions. Trades of all shapes and sizes are welcome. I'm not particular about condition except I have a 'no writing' rule. Seeing writing on a card reminds me of the horrors I inflicted upon my cards as a kid...lol.

VARIATIONS: I checked my sets when I initially entered them in 2021, but some of this years additions to 'variation hell' have not been double checked (EX. 1991 Fleer Baseball). If the VAR is important, please let me know and I will check my cards.

BUYING: Not currently buying. 

SELLING: Currently selling from FST list. Working on moving some to collection items to FST.

DO NOT USE FEDEX to ship here. The local hub is notorious for losing, misdelivering, and flat out lying about packages.

NOTE: I will reply as soon as I can. Full-time job doesn't allow much spare time during the week (what's up with that?!?) Most trade processing will happen Fri-Mon as of August 2023

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!!

Hey all! Like a lot of guys, I was a collector in the early 90s, stepped away for a while and then came back in 2018 (and even harder in 2020 during the pandemic) to rediscover my love for this hobby.

I'm a set builder through and through; with the exception of Barry Sanders, I don't PC any particular players, and I don't care about inserts, parallels, parallels to inserts, autos, relics, etc. I trade those as soon as I get them. The base set is king, always has been. I'm not an investor, just a collector having fun.

As for trades: I check this site daily, respond quickly to offers and ship quickly. I think it's reasonable, on a site dedicated to trading, that others will do the same, so if you log on and don't bother to check your trade offers within a couple days, I'll move on. Communication is so easy and quick on here, so if you need more time, that's fine. Just talk to me and we'll work it out. I've done 950+ trades and still have a 100% rating because I care. PWE is preferred on both sides, though anything above 36 cards (two PWEs) usually goes in a bubble mailer.

Sets: I'm a Topps guy who recently finished building out all the base sets from 1983-2023. Working currently on a couple of Chrome and Update sets. Being a junk wax guy, I always have a soft spot for those early 90s sets (nearly every set from 1993 is beautifully designed and underrated, and I'll die on this hill; seriously, revisit Leaf, Donruss, Flair, Fleer and Upper Deck from that year; they hold up). I don't really care about vintage cards either, so anything prior to 1983 generally gets traded right away.

Look forward to working with you all of you and having fun in this hobby!
