Turning off trades for the time being will be back soon playing catch up

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.

A.S.

Delegating myself to "Lurker" status

For the most part, I am done trading here. I won't accept or send plain white envelope trades ever again. The last PWE I received contained 14 damaged cards from overstuffing the envelope. No thanks!

First off, I am no longer accepting PWE trades and will ship only via bubble mailer or, for extremely large trades, USPS flat rate box. I apologize if this makes trading a bit more difficult for you. I have had too many issues with damaged cards via PWE in the past and am tired of it.

Secondly, I would like to finish these sets as most of them have been languishing for some time (obviously not the newer sets). The '98 Showcase Row 0 will be the hardest to finish off as the 5 remaining cards I need are #'d to 250. I am still working on my Arkansas Born Players Collection and my Chicago Cubs Collection

I prefer the set fills first over the personal collections for now, but will consider the personal collections as I do not have any, basketball or racing sets I am working on at the moment and I know I haven't made the sets a focus in the time I have been on here to this point. I also realize that not everyone does just baseball or any other sport either, hence why I will consider the personal collection stuff. I may end up working on '20 Topps A&G Minis at some point.

Love old video games such as Atari, NES and more

OPEN TO SELLING AS WELL AS TRADING

TRADING IS TURNED OFF FOR THE MOMENT

Hoping to get back on track this year. I want to finish some organization, complete some sets, and then sell them off and downsize my collection. I don't mind lopsided trades (giving up more than I receive), so don't be shy to ask for more from me.

Thank you for reading.

PRIORITY LIST IN ORDER:

Corban Knight NHL / KHL

Calgary Cannons baseball

Calgary Hitmen WHL

Calgary Stampeders CFL

Atlanta / Calgary Flames O-Pee-Chee team sets, manufactured patches

Abbotsford Heat hockey (AHL - defunct)

Calgary 88's basketball

Set builder

I try to hit the post office in a reasonable amount of time after accepting trades, it's not always going to be next day. 

Hockey (1990-2020), Baseball (1981-2010), Football (1990-2015), Basketball (1991-2010), Racing (1995-2000); Majority of collection is Upper Deck but also have Fleer, Topps and Donruss

I collect: NBA, NHL, NASCAR, Star Wars, History, Military, DC Comics, Olympics, whatever interests me

Current project is trying to get at least one card of everyone to ever get one for NBA, NHL and NASCAR. Also working on getting at least one example of every set ever for the above sports. (Wantlists on Cardboard History)

I have some health problems that make it challenging for me to get to my trade stash. It makes me a slow trader as there are some days when I'm simply in too much pain to access the boxes. My health problems are not transferable so you do not need to fear catching anything from trading with me. I generally only can mail on Saturdays.

Trading: 

I prefer to trade 1 card for 1 card. I do not care about any made up "book value". I will gladly trade more than one card for some as well...there are a few cards on my tradelist that I do need more than one card for in return though. I only put sets on my wantlist that are close to completion, so if you have something else in any of the three sports or the Non-Sports topics I focus on, odds are I will want it. Only reason I wouldn't is if I had it already.  If you don't have anything from the topics I mainly collect, but I have something you want, I will also accept football or baseball in trade, pretty much anything to get a trade done. I would prefer not to trade with smokers. I have breathing problems and cards that come from smokers are essentially useless to me, I cannot handle them. I prefer larger trades but will do any size at all.

I have tried to make sure all the cards on my Tradelist are problem free, with no corner dings, scratches or other flaws, but I am human and it's possible I may have missed something, but all cards sent out are cards you shouldn't need to worry about ever finding a replacement for. I don't demand problem free cards in return as my theory is that a damaged card is better than no card, but writing and paper loss means to me that I don't actually have that card so please don't offer them to me in trade. 

If you don't care about condition, take a look through my "Damaged Cards" collection. These are all cards that I rejected from my tradelist for having flaws but they are available for trade. I would put them at one third a card "value" so 3 damaged cards vs. 1 of your cards. If you do want any of them, let me know and I will move them to my tradelist. I don't want to put them all there and cause matches for people expecting good cards and getting damaged cards in return. Some of the flaws are pretty big problems, some you will probably wonder why I didn't list it in my tradelist. While my collection doesn't demand perfection, I am very strict with condition on cards I send out in trade.

Trading Prioroties: (what makes me the happiest to get in trade, in no particular order)

• 1995-96 and 1996-97 NBA Cards
• 1994 NASCAR Cards
• Any NASCAR card that actually focuses on the car
• Automotive Non-Sport cards
• New York Rangers
• New York Knicks
• New Jersey Nets (and Brooklyn and New York Nets, but the NJ era is my favorite
• Elton Brand
• Dale Earnhardt Jr.
• Henrik Lundqvist
• History related Non-Sports cards
• Attractive women (with or without clothes)
• Anything from Racing Champions I don't have
• Team logo cards for NBA and NHL
• Non-sports subjects in Allen & Ginter
• People with last names starting with Q, U, Z and especially X. 
• With that said, I will trade for anything at any time, whether it's on my wantlist or not. I prefer "quantity" to "quality" and I'm a set builder at heart. 

There are also a couple of specific sets I'm really hoping to complete some day:

• 1996-97 Ultra (NBA), my favorite set ever
• 1988 Leesley Bigfoot (the set that got me started collecting)
• 2002-03 Topps Chrome Refractors (NBA) Refractors are my favorite parallel and this is the closest one to completion
• 1994 Action Packed (NASCAR) tied for my favorite NASCAR set
• 1989-90 Marine Midland New York Rangers (just need the cover card!)
• 1993 & 1994 Skybox The Simpsons (One base card away from completion, also chasing inserts)
• 1954 Topps Scoop (my favorite Non-Sport set ever)
• 1953-54 Topps World on Wheels (my favorite automotive set ever)

*F1- my feedback

I love trading, but I'll sell or buy, too.  Whatever transaction makes sense!  I've enjoyed making trades with so many people on TCDB.

I care about the condition of cards I am acquiring for my collection.  I'm trying to mark all my vintage cards with the correct condition so you'll have a good idea of what you are getting.

• For 1960-1975 cards, I prefer ExMt or NrMt. 
• For 50s era cards, I prefer ExMt or NrMt, but will consider VgEx or Ex. 
• After 1975, the cards should be NrMt or better - no signs of wear. 

I'll buy lesser condition collections if you are interested in selling your vintage collection.

Any card on my For Sale/Trade list is for sale!  If you see something you want, I'd be just as happy to sell it as trade it.  

Here's what I'm collecting these days:

• 1970s era Fleer/Lauglin cards
• 1970-71 Topps Basketball
• 1971-72 Topps Basketball
• Vintage Cardinals cards
• 2002-2005 Topps Heritage
• 2014 - current Stadium Club
• 2009-2011 Topps Heritage All-Star cards
• Cardinals Heritage Short Prints
• Topps 35th Anniversary Cards (inserts in base Topps packs)

I sell a few things on BuySportsCards.com and eBay, but would just as soon sell directly to you.

WBB, vintage Pirates and WNBA autographs, oddballs, basketball players from Pittsburgh, 1979-80 Topps / OPC hockey set builder, players I like.

My Pirates Autographs, 1970-1979

Trading for ONLY cards I need.    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.

  • New York Mets, 1962-1994
  • Buffalo Sabres
  • Syracuse alumni, NFL & NBA

I'm Primarily a Set collector: Baseball, Football, Vintage, Hockey, Non-Sport. Prefer Pre-1980 Vintage. I also collect my local DC Area and Some Maryland teams.

I am OK with receiving PWEs containing only 1 card maybe 2. However, I do not send out PWEs. I like having my packages tracked.

I live in the USA and prefer to trade within the US. I can ship to Canada but it needs to be something worth the $15+ in shipping costs. Sorry I will not trade with any other countries it is too expensive to ship, plus there usually is no tracking available and takes a long time for shippments to arrive for either end.

My biggest annoyance is the use of regular clear scotch tape anywhere near the card(s) especially if on the toploader (takes a huge effort to remove it). Also do not like the use of Card "Savers" for more than one card and hate when they are taped shut. If tape is to be used to secure cards it is best to use Painter's Tape (the BLUE tape). It isn't always blue but that is the traditional color.

Glad to be back trading again after almost a year away!!

Only want to do smaller trades at the moment (1-15 cards). I will be willing to do trades of a larger size but I may need pointers on how to ship them as I haven't done any deals of that size yet. Trades 15 cards or under will be shipped in PWE unless otherwise agreed upon. Above that will most likely be bubble mailer or bigger. Only trading in Canada and the United Sates at the moment. Also willing to sell anywhere in the world. Paypal and EMT accepeted

Football: Steelers, Hamilton Tiger-Cats and anything on my want list

Hockey: Blackhawks and anything on my want list

Any cards of Indigenous sports players not in my collection whether on my wantlist or not (Will almost always work a deal out if this is included)

Anything else that is on my want list

If you have something from one of my listed pcs that is not in my collection I will be intetested for sure

*I collect Cincinnati Reds (especially Joey Votto, I'm a sucker for any trade with a Votto), Cleveland Browns, and Brock Lesnar.

I'm in the process of building the 1974 Topps set. 

*Still looking for that perfect 1967 Tony Perez

No trade is too big or too small.

I mail out trades every Friday. 

Manitoba born Athilets all sports and entertament are the only ones i have listed here but my collection is well over 400,000 cards and counting. my autographs are over 5000 lol i love cards what can i say

Transactions ON... for now. My schedule got an unexpected break, so turning trades back on for now. I'm going to have to be very careful with how many I can commit to, knowing I could be right back behind the 8-ball with work and home. So, I might be turning them off and back on days apart, just to manage the flow to what I know I can handle.

On another note, recently moved locations at work, and the commuting schedule now makes it tougher to process trades during the week. Will still try to get them out as quickly as possible and catch up on the weekend as needed. Thanks in advance for your patience and understanding. Cheers!

As of March 2021

I'm turning trading off until the lakes freeze over. I'm out chasing fish.

If there's something you REALLY need, send me a PM. I might not answer right away, but I will get back to you.

Happy collecting!

I collect predominantly Packers, Brewers, and former UW Badgers.  I am trading with people in the United States only due to postage costs.  Condition matters to me especially for 1981 to date.  Please do not send me severely yellowed, badly off-center, corner and edge damaged or creased and dog-eared cards from the modern era unless you have notified me as such ahead of time.  For 1980 and earlier I am not as concerned but would appreciate a heads up.  Not accepting trade offers at this time.

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 2,200 different cards and just short of 50% completion.

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

Please let me know if you feel I've made an uneven offer. Book values don't always define what a card is worth to me. I don't mind unbalanced trades in your favour, within reason. 

If you don't have anything on my wantlist, try me anyway. Trading by PWE unless otherwise agreed upon. 

Baseball: 

• Pat Hentgen 
• Ed Sprague 
• Mike Timlin
• Turner Ward (especially his Milwaukee Brewers Police issues)
• Roy Halladay (Blue Jays playing days: 2010 and earlier)

Hockey:

• Lyle Odelein
• Mario Roberge
• Donald Dufresne

Roberto Alomar has been pushed to the bottom of my priority list, given the news of sexual misconduct.

• Roberto Alomar (Blue Jay playing days (to 1996). Will also consider post 2011 - Hall of Fame cards)

Collecting Toronto Blue Jays, Toronto Maple Leafs, Magic The Gathering Artifact Cards, Wrestling Cards and unopened packs of the above - Looking to trade to collect.

Though not on my want list - happy to trade for any Boston Bruins cards as well, for a friend.

Dave Winfield, Hensley Meulens, Roberto Kelly, Dave Henderson, Tuffy Rhodes, Bernardo Brito, Billy Hamilton, Clyde Drexler

I will gladly trade in YOUR favor.  Don't focus on value, I will most likely be happy to trade 10 cards you need for 1 card I need.

Detroit Tigers, Red Wings, Real Madrid, Spain and Topps Oakland A's, Autographed Cards, Jerseys, Pucks, Vintage Lions

Any trade offer should be reasonable and make sense, anything crazy will be a No Go at this station. prefer small PWE Trades of at least 2  up to 20 cards due to time constraints. I travel alot for work and might not be in your country at time of request. 

Condition of Vintage cards are identified in how they are. 

Using this site mainly as tracking collection, TRADING ONLY, ANY request for selling will be replied with a 20% over Beckett price.

Trades will also depend on status of my mood as well as yours

I use this site primarily as a means of databasing and organizing my collection.  Nothing in my collection is for sale, and my wantlist does not represent my actual wants.  Sorry to disappoint all hopefuls. 

• Working on low to mid grade 1970 through 1972 complete Topps baseball sets, but I'll take any condition just to complete these sets. I'm focusing on these right now and I hope to trade as much for these as I can. I will buy if the price is right. I'm over halfway on 1970-1972 with HOF and High #'s remaining.

I've been very blessed in my trades and transactions here on TCDB. Thank you to all. I will trade vintage for modern and vice versa as long as there is roughly equal value felt on both sides. I am a set builder and collecter. I do not speculate on my cards for future value. I do this for fun, not for profit. I will sell, but only to build a small bank of money to use for buying cards I can't trade for. I've traded hundreds of cards each way and I've done many 1 for 1 trades, so no trade is too big or small for me.

In packaging, I use painter's tape ONLY. I try to use a photo mailer for small trades of about a dozen or less.  I use #10 PWE for trades up to about 2 dozen cards and maybe 2 PWE for 4 dozen.  After 50 cards, I typically will use a bubble mailer with tracking.  If it is 200 or more cards, they will likely be in a box well padded.

Main Collections as of today: (rank on TCDB)

Lavonte David #1

Jerry Rice #3

Joe Crede #2

Shaun King #1

Tampa Bay Buccaneers #1

Western Illinois University Alumni (Don Beebe, Bryan Cox, Rodney Harrison, Frank Winters, Ed Hartwell, Rick Reuschel, Gene Lamont and a few more)

I don't have everything for trade loaded in, so if you have something I need let me know and I will look for cards you need. Any size trade is fine, I will sell as well but rarely buy. 

Scott Mueller

204 Navajo Trail

Groveland, IL 61535

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.

Check out the results of the Ukraine trip here!

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!

I LOVE TO TRADE!  Big, small, any years--I am not too picky as long as both sides are happy. Will also SELL and buy from time to time. Typcially do PWE trades of 30 cards or less but am usually up for just about anything. Happy to review what Reds you have on your trade list if you are not seeing something on my Wantlist.  

****Hebron Reds Fan is also becoming a Hebron FC Cincinnati Fan!  If you have FC Cincinnati soccer cards for trade--I might be interested!******

2023 Goals (as of Jan 1, 2023)

• Have fun collecting!  

Trading/Selling all non-Cincinnait Reds cards. Need some junk era stuff?  We should trade!

I am very open to trade proposals and also happy to SELL.  I also buy cards from folks on here from time to time if they have a nice lot of Reds I need.  I also welcome counter offers for trades that I initiate--so please feel free to review my lists and come back with an offer that works for both of us.  My sincere wish is that every trade is a win-win for all.   

Let's make some trades!  Go Redlegs!

 I am looking to trade or buy for Phillies or anything on my want list. So trade with me please . I am adding new cards to my for trade list every day. I have my Phillies collection listed from 1887 to 2020

I've been using TCDB to catalog my collection, fill sets, and exchange unwanted cards for singles that fit my various PCs (listed below) I don't have a large tradelist but I am very active in offering small 3 to 16 card PWE trades to users who match with me. I almost always mail out cards in a PWE within 24 hours of agreeing to a trade, and I will happily ship to Canada, Australia, and any other country if the trade is worth the postage.

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.

No trading

  • Any other pre-1970 graded football
    • Any condition, preferrably PSA; primarily looking for cheap, low-grade commons

Any cards that I have that do not meet the above criteria will be removed from my collection. As of right now, I only sell on COMC (and I don't see that changing). I just don't have the time with my lifestyle (working 40-50 hours a week, plus coaching three baseball teams) to pull, package, and mail trades, or even mail my own sales. I do enjoy sending PIFs and typically check wantlists here before sending a box to COMC for consignment. If I'm looking for something specific and notice you have it FS/T, I may reach out to try and make an offer. I don't expect to receive any proposals, and would rather send someone a few cards from their wantlist and get nothing in return than try to hash out a deal.

I do have cards listed FS/T; they are available via COMC, listed in my "COMC" collection, and can be accessed by following the External Sales Link on those cards. I don't have them in my possession, so I can't do a trade with you. However, I want to see these cards go to people who really want them. If you see something you like, send me a message on here and let me know - the price will come down, and I'll even take a bit of a loss to get you cards for your collection. I keep my prices more in line with what is currently offered on COMC, but I'll certainly be wiling to negotiate, especially with a TCDB member, as these are typically higher than what these cards are truly worth, in my opinion.

Trading: PWE shipping, will use multiple envelopes if needed. 

My collection is one that sparks joy to me. I have no rhythm or reason to it, each card brought joy to me and so it was added to the collection. My want list is cards that spark joy for me. My Want List is being re added to and will grow greatly over the next few weeks/months.  

This hobby is my saving grace! I found it as a way to help my anxiety and the friendships I have made in this hobby are amazing! I truly appreciate everyone in this hobby!

I look forward to doing lots of trades here and getting these cards in your mailbox and collection where they belong!

One of my binder projects is a Topps Twins project and am mainly needing the vintage now, I am happy to add cards with character aka poor condition for the vintage cards. This project is to tell the story of the decades and what better way than to have character to the cards. That's for the vintage, I don't want 1990s cards that are rounded edges and ripped up. 

My collection is valued at how much I'm smiling at the end of the day :) 

Yes, I am one of those fools trying to finish the VAR master sets from the late-80s/early-90s. If you see a mass want from that set I'd prefer to purchase a large lot/full set (even that means taking on dupes for myself) rather than trade for onsies and twosies (though funnily enough I have PC’s that fall into this boat).

Priority collection projects:

1) Finishing 80s and 90s baseball inserts moving into the new century

2) Vintage, all sports

3) Finishing off hockey sets and inserts

4) Finishing off football sets and inserts

5) Extensive PC lowest priority

I WILL buy. I will NOT buy if you insist on pandemic pricing.

***FOR PROPOSED TRADES***

1. I WILL trade to my friends up north; always have, always will.

2. I WILL NOT trade cards out of my collection, FS/T only. If it’s in my collection, it’s because I want to keep it to meet my goals (whether I get there or not is a different story 😊)

3. I’m continuously updating my FS/T list as I have several large lots I am sorting through and adding here.

4. The nature of my work means I can work odd hours at times. It may take me several days before I get to your request. I know this is usually an understood condition for traders on here, but I just want to put it out there now especially for those I have yet to trade with.

5. I take trades first-come, first-serve style so a requested card may already be accounted for in another trade. I put this one out there because I have times where I was balancing 5-10 trades and have run into this.

6. I’m always open to counteroffers so please be flexible yourself.

7. I’m open to anything from small PWE to large lots.

8. I will trade across sports (baseball for football, etc.) so a trade doesn't have to revolve around one sport or even numbers.

9. For trades up to 20-30 cards, I try to ship PWE. I have successfully used multiple PWE's for larger trades also. Bubble mailers will be used for more valuable cards.

I always look for equal value in trades. I do not use Beckett nor this site for price comparison. I use 3rd party sites to gage values as they can indicate more real-world sales/selling prices. With that said I will NOT do pandemic pricing. So much stuff out there is artificially inflated right now and I will not “overpay” for an item. I don’t have hard ratios as to what I will trade (1 HOF = 5 commons, etc.). I know what I paid and can research value; just want fair value in return. This also means I’m open to off-balance trades where one of us get more cards than the other. Again, it’s about making both sides happy.

For any vintage on my FS/T list I tried to be accurate as possible on condition. I can send pictures of any vintage upon request. I will trade for vintage, but I am a stickler for condition. I’m aiming for NM on my vintage sets. If you are going to send me anything from the modern era, I would expect NM or better. One would think that's a no-brainer, but you'd be surprised on how disappointed one can get...

***NON-TRADING MEMBERS***

I'll sell any cards on my for sale/trade list for a fair and reasonable price plus enough to cover shipping. I'm not in this to make a profit, but to help fellow collectors meet their goals. I am open to buying, but again, will not do pandemic pricing.

I do expect nm or better condition on 81-present cards (unless agreed upon lower condition in messages)  On vintage, I collect any condition except on upgrade lists.

If you do want to trade vintage, please be clear on what your condition requirements are....many of my extra vintage are in lower conditions..

Have lots of wants on my web page, not on this database

RH2 8EN

United Kingdom

TRADING HAS BEEN  "TEMPORARILY" TURNED ON FOR NOW.

Please leave feeback after a sucessful trade and I will do the same for you. THANKS!

• When offering a trade please try to offer similar cards in your proposal. Base for base, insert for insert etc. I have been getting a lot of trade offers from members that fill their side of the trade with quite a few insert cards and just offer me mostly base in return. I have done trades like this in the past but am now declining such trades. Please keep this in mind when proposing a trade. THANKS!!
• Also note that most low end card trades will be mailed out in a PWE (plain white envelope). If you'd like a bubble mailer please let me know as postage may be more depending on the destination.
• I will consider cards that are not on my Want List (Hockey - preference given to Toronto Maple Leaf cards) so feel free to add those (Hockey cards) if you are looking for a trade but don't have much for cards that are on my Want List. I can always use them in furutre trades to other members.

Currently collecting: Johnny Bower, Allan Bester, Mike Palmateer, Felix Potvin, Ed Belfour (Leafs), Curtis Joseph and Frederik Andersen, Jack Campbell, Tiger Williams, Wendel Clark, Tie Domi, Wade Belak, Colton Orr and any other Toronto Maple Leaf "tough guy/Enforcer". Trading preference will be given to members offering these player cards over those who are offering others on my want list. Also trying to collect Toronto Maple Leaf team sets from "ANY YEAR".

Also interested in "any Leaf vintage" hockey cards and Toronto Maple Leaf goalie cards pre 1989 and older.

Added some Marvel, DC (comics) and Kiss (band) cards to my want list. I am still adding these to my want list so if you don't see them when offering a trade, then I'll more than likely still like them for my PC. Also interested in some Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cards for my step-son will be adding those to my want list soon.

 Looking forward to some trades :)

I have added Carey Price to cards I'd like to collect. These would be for my grandson who is 11 years old and he's a HUGE Price fan. Just looking for inexpensive cards as him being so young you know how kids treat cards. He also plays hockey as a goalie. Feel free to hit me up for some trades as I did add some base (among others) to my want list for him. I will coninue to collect cards for him and gift them to him over the years as well.

As much as I'd like to do this full-time, this is still a hobby, and I'm at that age where life really gets in the way.  Due to a mid-day work schedule and a recurring back injury, trading will be off more than on, but if you have a query about a potential deal, I'll try to get back to you and see if we can find some common ground. 

Baseball, Hockey, Football, Basketball, Cal Ripken Jr. & Odd Stuff...

All old Cigarette & other Cards

I like mostly Suchard chocolate cards, Dutch Gum cards and Cavanders & Gallaher cigarette cards, but always happy to find any other kind of cards...

Trading and buying needed Phillies, will sell as well. I use sportslots.com as a price reference for pricing. Currently suspending trading while processing bulk purchase.

Trades turned off temporarily (02/23/23) but if there's something I've got that you really need shoot me a message,I might be up for a trade here or there,

I'm also starting a collection for my daughter of Cincinnati Reds starting with 2022

I am only collecting racing sets. 

I deal with some health issues and I'm not always the best at responding to messages and getting slower pulling cards for trades. If you reach out and don't hear from me it's nothing personal. I'll be taking some time off from trading to put my trades and purchases into their final resting place. If you think we have a large trade that you don't mind waiting a day or two longer than usual send me a note what you are thinking about and i'll try to get back to you.

I do have a large collection of over 250 000 cards that i am trying to get into the system here but as you are aware it takes a while to get them in. If you dont see anything in my collection just ask as i might have. I am looking to complete sets. I love trading as it keeps thewife off my ass about spending money on this but if i don't have a trade that you need but have cards i want please send me a price and i would be willing to look at it.

My Parkhurst, Tim Hortons, McDonalsds, Fleer (skybox, Flair) Pro Set, Donruss, Panini, OPC, Pinnacle, Topps Ultimate, in the game, Pacific,Leaf, Bowman and Classic and finally upper deck  and Score complete,  I also have a love for Star trek and would look at any deal on those cards. Now my hockey is done, i am going to add my 100 000 baseball and then my basketball. Please don't send me Deals on baseball, or basket ball as of yet until i get my collections in, i have many boxes to add, the ones in this system were what i had in binders.

Also my vinatage cards have been with me for years, if you very concerned over the condition of them please ask for my email and provide me with yours so i can send pics, my cards are in great shape for being with me over the years, no tears or folds but i would be happy to show you condidtion if your that serouis collector who wants mint. 

thanking for looking and i hope we can make a trade.

I am a person with a fast turn around, in most cases if we have a deal today, the cards will be sent tomorrow. I expect the same from you as well. I also check to make sure we are trading dollar for dollar. I dont do card for card unless they are same value or enough cards make up the value. Please don't send one or two card trades, lets make the biggest deal possible, or least the deal should be more then postage, and please make sure you put the transaction number on the envelope or somewhere inside the package, so many people don't and if your like me who have many deals going at once it makes it very hard to figare out what deal it is with out the number.

Also i have been trading for a while now, and the 2 biggest problems i have is the amount of tape people use to wrap the cards, please try to use as little as possible, and second please put the trading id on something in the package. I have any where from 5 to 20 deals happing at all times, its sucks when you have to go through deal by deal to find the transaction. It would be so much easier if the transaction id was printed on something inside, thank you. (Also your name and trading name would be a bonus as well)

Wow just hit over 100 trade deals, crazy time flies when your having fun! looking forward to hitting the 200 or 250 deal. Will have to do somethign special for the 250th Deal!.

**Currently only making trades within the USA.**

**Not interested in the 1980s Donruss 'Variations' **

Trading: A minimum of 12 cards going each way unless there is a true gem / vintage in the trade. PWE acceptable but prefer large trades of 250+ cards in each direction. Please confirm that you actually have the cards before Accepting a trade; I always do the same at this end. Vintage for vintage; HoF/stars for same; inserts / parallels for same, all as much as possible. Priority are vintage, OPC and sets on my UserLists. Having tried to offer cards from these lists will increase the chances of my Accepting a trade; totally disregarding these and offering me 12+ commons from a set that I am so far from completing that they do not make the list is more prone to being Declined, especially if I see you have cards for trade that are on my lists.

ARMY DOMINATES MY TIME.  IF YOU NEED A QUICK TURNAROUND, DO NOT PROPOSE/ACCEPT TRADES WITH ME. A WEEK AT THE LEAST.

Cleveland Browns, Mets, Topps football sets.

Any Mets or browns that aren't in my "collection" are wants. There are just too many to simply add all missing cards to wantlist.

Would like to focus on Topps football.  Condition not necessarily a priority on older cards, just no holes, missing paper, wicked creases, rounded corners...

I dont have the patience to play the Donruss VAR game. It may be the one you need or it might not. Understand that when proposing trades.

PWE only at this point until I figure out the new budget. Also, please have a nine (9) card minimum. 

Update:

10/5/23

I just want to say to the people that have PIF me in the past couple of weeks and the people who have been send get well wishes. THANK YOU!!!! It means a lot to me.  I am working hard to get better. It's going to take some time to get back from 4 discs in my neck and lower back to heal. I am not sitting back letting it stop me from doing the hobby I love to do. So, thank you all for understanding and giving me the time to get you your cards.

9/11/23

Trades are open for a minute. I was in a bad card wreck 3 weeks ago and now I am trying to get some trades for people who ask if I am coming back soon.  And it's alot of people ask me. So please be understanding I have a back and neck injury that slows me down right now.  I am trying to help others out that is why I opened back you trading to see If I can do it.  In the past you all got your cards shipped out within the next day or two of me taking the trade.  It might take me a little longer to ship out with having so many Dr. appointments. but you will get your cards I dont have a perfect rating on here for people not getting their cards. I have done 1300 plus trades. an you can look at my feedback you will get your cards I just need some time. If you are ok with that then lets trade. Thank you for understanding.

11/4/22

FOR THE LAST TIME I AM GOING TO SAY THIS. I DO NOT BUY CARDS ON HERE AND I WILL NOT DO BIG TRADES. I HAVE A SET LIMIT OF CARDS I WILL TRADE AND THAT IS THAT. 

10/25/22

Today just I just pick up this really cool lot of cards that I will be trying to work into the database. Another 8500 cards pick up with football and baseball 2017 to 2021. I will be taking some of it for my collection and I will be setting the rest free. 

4/2/22

I just got anther collection in most of it is Topps 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22 with Opening day, and Update as well. It is not in the database as of yet if you are looking for base or RC I might have them.  I will try to get them into the database as soon as I can. Some of you know that I am also working on getting 350,000 plus cards in as well that was picked up and the first of this year. I hope this help you all out as I get closer to my 1000 completed trade being here.  I an getting slower on getting back to people on trade do to the face that I get a tone of trade offers each day. I will get to you just give me a little bit of time. 

Thank you 

I will try this one more time. I will only do trades that are 20 Cards or less. If the trade is more then that I will decline the trade offer. I have lost to many card to big trades. An my no trade list is still in play.  If you keep asking for more then 20 cards at one time. You will be put on that list no question Asked.

I finally made the list this year. The Biggest Trade of The Year Tenlbpain and Shaggy69 4,247 Cards. Hell Yes!!!!! 

 Not buy cards for any reason if I need them or not.

Hockey. Mainly 90's base cards. + everything I like and find interesting.

Slowly scanning my collection to the databsde.

*** 10-14-23 TRADING IS OFF ***

I'm taking a break from trading to add a ton of cards to my For-Trade list. Getting close! Be back soon.

I'M COLLECTING

• Baltimore Orioles, Washington Capitals, and Baltimore Ravens.
• Topps Baseball Sets: Focused on completing sets 1954-1968, 1977, 1982, and 1997-2023.

TRADING

Overview

• I love to trade, but if I have more than 10 trade transactions going at once, I will momentarily turn off my incoming trade proposals to let the trade queue clear out before turning it back on. I don't have the time between family and work to fulfill that many trades at once, especially large trades, and also enjoy this hobby. I thank you for your patience and understanding.
• I have 32,600+ cards listed to trade (I don't list multiples). As a Topps set collector, fair bulk trades are welcome.
• I prefer to trade with fellow team collectors and/or set builders to help out their sets. Common for common cards. As a team collector and set builder, there are way too many common cards on my want list making it difficult to line up a one-for-one trade for inserts, hall of famers, etc... in exchange for commons. Nothing against hall of famer, insert, or investment traders, but our interests don't line up easily to make fair one-for-one card trades.
• I look at the red/green numbers as a contributor to "value". High red/low green numbers mean the card is in high demand. Low red/high green numbers mean the card can easily be obtained by traders on here. There are many cards on my for-trade list where I'm the only active trader offering them (cards typically asked for are the Fleer stickers, Drakes cards, and other inserts). Take the red/green numbers into account when proposing your trade. I could really care less what the price on here says or that those high red/low green numbered cards were abundant during the 80s. If they are hard to get on here, that means something.
• I'd like to stay within the same decade for vintage trades, 50s for 50s, 60s for 60s, and 70s for 70s. For 80s and later cards, it's not as important. For example, I'd like to trade away my 1970s cards to complete my 1977 Topps set.
• Let's communicate to make sure both parties have all of our cards available and in acceptable condition BEFORE either of us commits and hits the "Accept" button.

Grading, Condition, and Variations

• All pre-1970s cards in my for-trade list have a grade assigned regardless of condition. Post-1970s cards will have a grade assigned only if there is something drastically wrong with the card (way off-center, fuzzy corners, crease, wax stain, spots, etc...). I'll report all flaws after pulling cards and before accepting an incoming proposal from you. I'm open to sharing photos of cards if requested. Photos are preferred for vintage trades. I grade based on the PSA standards located here: https://www.psacard.com/resources/gradingstandards.
• For 50s-60s vintage cards coming my way, I'm OK with cards having slight wear. However, I'm not interested in cards with tears, heavy scuffs with surface damage, writing, heavy creases breaking the surface, severely rounded corners, holes, wax stains, or part(s) of the card missing. Everything later than 1980, I'd expect to be near mint or mint condition. Again, I'm open to exchanging images of cards to verify condition, especially for vintage cards.
• I make every effort to select the correct card variations within the database. If you are a variation collector, please ask and I will double-check that the variations are correct for you. I wear reading glasses and can make mistakes on those "dot-no-dot" cards. For me, the only sets that I'm concerned about receiving the correct variations for are the 1981 Fleer and the 1991 Topps sets that I'm trying to complete master sets of.

Trade Sizes and Shipping

• To make a trade worth the postage, I'd like to stick to trades of more than 15 cards going each way unless the cards involved are higher than common in value or vintage cards.
• 24 Cards or Less: Plain White Envelope (PWE), unless you prefer otherwise.
• 25 to 48 Cards: Two PWEs (because getting TWO envelopes full of cards in the mailbox is better than one!).
• 48+ Cards: Team bags in a plastic bubble mailer, or a 200ct to 500ct card box. All larger trades will come with a USPS tracking number shared with you in a transaction message.
• Work pending, I try to mail out as soon as possible. When work is crushing my soul, I will let you know mailing is delayed. Apologies in advance.
• U.S. trades only, with the exception of PWEs to Canada. Shipping large trades outside of the U.S. is too expensive.

Thank you for reading my profile and stopping by!

HAPPY COLLECTING!

No PWEs ever! I won't send them and won't accept them. BM's or higher only. TRADERS: PLZ PM me 1st before sending a proposal. Always willing to sell cards too, so PM me if you want to buy some cards for a good price.

MLB - St. Louis Cardinals; NFL - Panthers/Packers/Patriots; NASCAR - Jimmie Johnson, Mark Martin, Bubba Wallace, Jeff Gordon, Kyle Busch, Davey Allison, Ricky Rudd, Jennifer Jo Cobb

I'm a collector, NOT an investor, and I deal solely on that premise.

I have my valuations and ANYTHING vintage (i.e. up through 1979) is considered more highly than anything newer.

I have tons of Wants from the overproduced late 1980s to early 1990s and I am looking to trade within that era for those, but I will go cross-sport, and will try to match HOFers, Stars, or Commons as much as possible in a card-for-card trade.

Mostly I'm a "You got gaps; I got gaps; together no gaps" type trader, BUT because I have plenty of oddball wants, I do not trade those for base cards (or even inserts in most cases). For example, I have plenty of Kellogg's cards, but I prefer trading them for other Kellogg's cards (or other food issued cards) from similar eras.

I ACCEPT lower conditioned creased and worn cards, but I wish to be told about them. The only flaws that I'll decline would be significant paper loss on fronts, markings or doodles that are excessive, or severely cut/torn cards. In those cases I'd still like to see scans to determine if they're acceptable. (I do NOT expect your condition requirements to be like mine.)

I vow to send securely and economically with VARs confirmed and condition issues noted or explained:

1. At least 18 cards going each way in a PWE.
2. Trades involving up to 90 cards will be mailed in medium to large business envelopes without tracking.
3. Larger trades will be sent in most economical way possible (obviously with tracking).

Focusing on These for Now (And the only ones which I'll consider in trades smaller than the 18 minimum from above):

• BASEBALL
  1. 1975 & 1978 Topps
  2. 1989 & 1991 Donruss Grand Slammers (master sets)
  3. 2001 Upper Deck Decade 1970s (base and related inserts)
  4. Any Topps Heritage New Age Performers
  5. Any food issued sets
• FOOTBALL
  1. 1966 Philadelphia
  2. 1968 Topps
  3. 1987 Topps
  4. 1994 Ted Williams Roger Staubach's NFL (base and related inserts)
  5. 2009 Philadelphia
• HOCKEY
  1. 1971-72 & 1978-79 Topps
  2. 1987-88 Topps
  3. 1989-90, 1990-91, 1991-92 Kraft sets
  4. 2001-02 Topps - 1971-72 Heritage
  5. Any food issued sets

Any and all car racing related cards (no motorcycles, boats, or monster trucks).  Always willing to trade for cards not in my collection, even if they are not on my want list.

Primarily here for trading, not buying/selling.  Probably will not sell unless you have some offer that I can't refuse (and really unlikely to sell anything out of my personal collection).

Generally not willing to trade cards from my personal collection with the exception of some parallel, autographs, and relics, as long as they meet the following criteria-

1.) Are not part of a complete (or near complete) set

2.) Are not a Kulwicki

3.) I have another card in that same parallel/autograph/relic set.  If I don't have another card from that same set, I may still be willing to trade, but the trade would have to include a card from that specific set.

No more trading.

Nolan Ryan, Derek Jeter, Cal Ripken, and other HOFers and Rookies. . First come first serve trades so if you were the first person to send me a trade you will be the first person I will agree or counter offer the trade. 
I will trade football for baseball

when working i am away from home for 2 weeks I will accept trade offers during this time but I will not be able to agree or ship until i can get home to pull and pack the cards. First come first response on the trade offers

I will be home Dec 26-31 then head back to work for 2 more weeks. My next home time home will be January 16-21. While i am away from work my mail even bills gets put aside until i get home so i will not be able to mark the packages received or leave feedback until i return home.  In order to make things as fair as i can i mark all packages received then work on new trades then i go through the packages and leave feedback.  
 

During the week of December 26-31 i may not get to all of the trades for i am having family down that week for Christmas and i am supposed to have me 5th Grandchild arrive.  Not including my wife mother-in-law and youngest daughter at home i am also expecting 18 other family members to be at the house so i will try to get everything done on that Tuesday before they arrive. Please keep that in mind while sending me offers now to the end of the year. 

Not collecting anymore. Getting rid of all my cards.

If my trading is turned back on, it's only to list what someone wants to get from me, not for trades.

It's been fun, but there comes a time for all good things to come to an end. This is my time.

Not sure when I will be back to trading. I am still collecting Detroit Tigers, Detroit minor league sets, and Topps Now Detroit Tigers. Top player collection is Miguel Cabrera. Updated 07/05/22

I work nights so some trades may take a little longer to do.
Mondays seem to be the best days for trading. Sorry everyone for being slow on my trades, my wife is having some medical treatments and things have been a little hectic, please be patient and I will address the trades when I can. I try to pull by sports, football, baseball, basketball.

**I recently added all my extra Twins cards, 1961-1980, to my trade list.  These cards range from very nice to very poor condition.  If you are interested in trading for any of these cards, I will describe them as best I can before I accept a transaction proposal, and I'll be happy to text or email you a picture of the card(s) you are requesting.**

After 8 years on the site, I finally decided to expand my profile.  As my user name suggests, I am a collector of all things Minnesota Twins, and Kirby Puckett is the top player I collect.  Whenever I pick up a Twins card, the hunt is on to complete that Twins team set.  I currently have well over 4,000 Twins team sets, cataloged in 50 binders, while several hundred more team sets are a work in progress.  It is a great feeling finishing off a team set, finding that last card that sometimes took years to locate.

A note about trading:  Even though they may show up on my wantlist (I try to delete them whenever I see them), I am generally not interested in all the variations (dot or not dot, one or two asterisks, Copyright D or E, etc.), unless they are Puckett cards.

I am currently ranked #1 in TCDB for Twins cards.. My top ten Twins cards are (with current TCDB ranking):

• 1.  Kirby Puckett (4th)
• 2.  Joe Mauer (4th)
• 3.  Torii Hunter (3rd)
• 4.  Harmon Killebrew (2nd)
• 5.  Justiin Morneau (5th)
• 6.  Byron Buxton (1st)
• 7.  Chuck Knoblauch (2nd)
• 8.  Rod Carew (3rd)
• 9.  Miguel Sano (1st)
• 10.  Kent Hrbek (3rd)
• 34.  Tony Oliva (1st)  I added Tony because he was my favorite player growing up.   What a thrill it was to see him go into the HOF!  I see him every year at spring training.  What a great gentleman and ambassador for the game!
• I also dabble in Vikings cards, but now that they have disappointed me again, I'll probably ease off but feel free to offer me any Vikings cards I don't have.

Phillies Team Sets, Mike Schmidt, Pete Rose(Phillies), Bo Jackson, Topps Now(Phillies), Rhys Hoskins, Bryce Harper, some Flyers

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!!

I am always interested trading for Pre 80s Pittsburgh Pirates, Pre 80s Pittsburgh Steelers and all Pittsburgh Penguin Cards.

Always looking to make a trade.

Trades are Preferred to be Vintage-for-Vintage or New-for-New. 

PWE is preferred. 16 to 18 cards max.

***Note***
The vintage cards available in my trade list run the entire P, F, G, VG, EX to NRMT spectrum. If you are looking for a particular condition, please state that in your proposal.

October 2023 - Nothing against any of my Canadian traders but I am no longer trading to Canada due to issues with Canada Post and the USPS destroying envelopes causing loss of cards, cards needing to be resent, issues with postage, etc. It's too much folks. 

To pull, package and ship cards, only to have one of the postal systems destroy the package makes it a fruitless endeavor. It's a waste of both time and money. 

Sadly, Canadian trades make up most of my trades so this is probably the beginning of the end of my trading days.  I will probably beginning selling off most of my collection starting in 2024. It's been a fun ride but thats the way I'm heading right now. 

****1990-91 Upper Deck Hockey VAR's on my For Sale/Trade list - Highly unlikely that I have any of the oddball VAR's. These cards were entered mainly as placeholders meaning I do have one version of a given card but probably not the version you need. If time permits, I may be open to checking VAR versions but it's not something that I enjoy doing nor high on my list of things to do. ****

September 2023 - Continuing to focus on collecting one card of anyone who is the four Hall of Fame's. I'm over 90% complete on Baseball and Football. Basketball is lagging far behind. Haven't updated Hockey but I should be in good shape there as well. 

Supplies:

For anyone close to Denver, I have a large amount of trading supplies that need to find a new home. I have BCW card houses, 5000 and 3200 count boxes and a host of smaller boxes (800, 660, 550, 400, 300, 200 and 100). The latter is a mixture of used and new Collect-Save-Protect or BCW brand. 

Disclaimer on PWE trades

I'm hearing of, and personally experiencing, more and more issues with PWE trades. Mainly postal machines destroying/bending envelopes or envelopes arriving and the cards being missing. I have not seen issues like this in my prior 1100+ PWE trades. That being said, I will continue to send 25 cards or less PWE but once the envelope is dropped in the mailbox, I'm no longer responsible for damage/issues after that point. I'm not sending replacement cards or funds if there's damage once the USPS has my/your envelope or your cards are lost in the mail.

I'm very close to no longer writing "Non-Machinable" on my PWE envelopes. This doesn't seem like a makes a difference to the USPS and the financial costs for doing this quickly add up. 

I hate to take a hard stance on this but short of stopping trading (or doing larger, bubble envelope trades), I have no other options. I'm spending too much time and money on postage to send replacement cards, when the issue arises, to make trading worth it.

Happy to do larger trades (30+ cards) in bubble envelopes.

What I'm collecting for:

1)I'm primarily an Upper Deck flagship hockey collector. I'm working on completing a few remaining base sets and then chasing Young Guns and insert cards. 

2)I'm also collecting RC's (when possible) of all NBA/NHL/NFL/MLB players who have been inducted into their respective Hall of Fames. Also collecting non-players cards as well if they are in the HOF. Basically if the person is in the Hall of Fame for their sport, I'm hunting their RC or if it's a non-player, some type of card for them.

3)Finally, I'm collecting Baseball/Hockey and to a lesser extent, Football sets, of the 1970's/1980's. 

Card condition:

If your cards look like they have been manhandled, I'm not interested in them for my collection. No creases, rounded corners or teeth marks. 

Buying cards:

I've had several folks approach me about buying cards..I will rarely be interested in buying from someone and, odds are, I will reach out to you first..

Trade size:

Make it worth our time..

PWE packaging:

I am no longer using cardboard protection in my PWE trades. Historically, I've done 100's of trades with cards just in 9 pocket pages and then placed in envelopes and have had zero issues. After some issues I have seen lately with including cardboard in my PWE trades, I'm no longer spending the extra money, and time, just to have cardboard protection in an envelope. 

Postage:

Please make sure you have proper postage on whatever you are sending me. Seems to be half the envelopes I get are short on postage. Minimal postage on a PWE envelope is $1.03.

Canada trades:

Has between 9 and 25 cards or less. I can't afford to send big trades unless there's additional cards/value to compensate. Trades less than 9 or so cards don't make a lot of sense either from a cost standpoint.
