master set building [see below] and a few player collections [see below] and

building a variety of base sets, parallel sets and insert sets from other years & brands

trying to improve my organization, it's a struggle

9/10/21 - I'm not really a vintage collector, and have no 50's-60's, yet I do have a lot of  vintage adjacent 70's - early 80's-late 80's junk wax -early 90's in good condition.  I'm slowly adding them here. When I first addd 88 Topps, I started getting overwhelmed by trade matching with members who are not active on the site, or vintage only collectors, and no chance of a trade match.  I had to dial it back.  I have entered almost all of my above referenced material as PC.  If you are a vintage collector of this era, and see that I have multiple copies of a card, and you want/ need it, I will be happy to trade the extra you.  every card of this era, regardless of BV, has a minimum value of 50 cents to me.  please don't ask for a single card, request a 1 for 1 trade, and tell me that the card you want is worth a nickle, and you are offering a card worth 5 cents in return.  

edit 11/29/20 - If you want something from me, but can't find cards to trade, that hit my want list, I will  be happy to try to work something out with Mike Trout, Albert Pujols, Adrian Beltre, Christian Yelich, Mookie Betts & Mark McGwire

Currently not trading or buying at this time.  Pre- 1980 Astros and Altuve.  Pre-1977 Baseball; Ty Cobb and Detroit Tigers in general. Catchers in gear and multi-bat cards are my favorite mini-collections. Only adding pre-1974 cards to these collections now.  I use TCDB to track my collections. 

Cleveland Browns cards

March '24 Update: Trading is turned back on. Woohoo!

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.

I prefer to trade base cards for base cards and inserts for inserts. 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.

The bigger the trade, the better. :)

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)

2000 - 2023 Baseball Stadium Club, last cards of HOF'ers and cards of players blowing bubbles, all sports

2000 - 2023 Baseball Stadium Club, last cards of HOF'ers and cards of players blowing bubbles, all sports

I am relatively new to TCDB but have been part of the baseball card blogging community for well over a decade. I have over 100,000 cards to trade. Also if you collect matchbooks/matchcovers, stamps, or bottle caps (including MLB/NFL caps from the 60s) I have some of those to trade, especially the matchbooks which I also collect.

PLEASE NOTE: While my modern cards are almost all mint/near-mint, the condition of my vintage cards vary greatly. Some are in quite good shape for their age; many more are in good/fair/poor condition.

ALSO NOTE: For the time being I will usually only be mailing out all packages, including PWEs, once a week, on Saturdays.

For my TCDB wantlists, first priority is my vintage Topps setbuilds. Second priority is the modern cards that I have on there. Lowest priority is the 2017-present Topps setbuilds. I do collect everything baseball, so even if you don't have cards that are on my TCDB wantlists, you will probably have plenty to trade that I would be interested in, so I'm happy to browse through your tradelist if you see cards on my tradelist that you would like to trade for.

And I'm always up to bust a repack!

NOTICE: Due to medical issues with back pain and a toe operation I will NOT be accepting any trade transactions. Until further notice.

I may check the site from time to time but just to lurk.

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

I am OK with receiving PWEs, However, I normally do not send out PWEs myself. I like having my packages tracked and prefer to send in bubble mailers. So only sometimes will I send a PW (and hope the recipient tells me when the card(s) arrives). 

I live in the USA and ship ONLY to the USA. Sorry I will not trade with any other countries due to shipping costs and no tracking  Even shipping to just Canada is expensive. The last package I shipped to Canada was over $20 and I think it was a medium bubble mailer that shipping within the US would have bonly $5.

My Hobby PET PEEVES: Use of regular scotch tape on any surface that can come in contact with the cards even toploaders and cardsavesrs and Card"Savers" in general.

1. Big Red Machine (75, 76 Reds)
2. Dayton Flyers
3. 1980 USA Hockey Team
4. Steel Curtain (75, 76, 79, 80 Steelers)
5. 1990 Wire-to-Wire Reds
6. Blitzburgh (06, 09 Steelers)
7. 1993-94 New York Rangers
8. Players from Dayton, Ohio area

Still adding to For Sale/Trade List (as of 28 April 2024):

• Baseball: 100% complete
• Football: 100% complete
• Hockey: 100% complete
• Basketball: 100% complete
• Reds and Steelers: 30% complete

Will trade anything for anything using these guidelines:

• Looking to receive similar value* to what I’m sending
• Not looking to trade one of mine for many of yours
• Wantlist is very large, order of personal value* is shown above
• USA and Canada only

*value to me includes a premium on centering and eye appeal especially with vintage, also a premium on low supply and/or high demand (red and green numbers) such as oddballs and boxed sets

Throughout the week I’m available for responding and making offers.  I’m usually only around my cards on the weekend, pulling, accepting and packaging offers will occur then. 

Trading only.  PWE is fine, let me know your plans.

Conditions of my Cards
My cards that do not have a condition listed in the database can be assumed to be free of wrinkles and other major issues. These cards are likely to have corner wear based on the age of the card, generally Ex or better. All other cards with a condition listed are my best guess.

Robin Yount, Milwaukee Brewers, Milwaukee Braves. I especially like Brewers police cards -- all the varieties and municipalities are the kind of obsessive type of collecting that I tend to like. So, I'll take any of those variations that I don't have, whether they are on a wantlist or not.

Otherwise, I used to write blogs but I got too busy with work for that. I used to trade a lot more too, but my wife's health has declined lately so I don't have a ton of time for that right now either. She used to take my packages to the post office for me but now she can't.

My old "Off Hiatus" blog has a ton of want lists and the like that I'm trying to phase out by entering my collection here at TCDB. I spend more time on Twitter than anywhere else these days, and I'm also a member of the SABR Baseball Cards Committee.

Note: I'm starting over again from scratch with getting my collection entered here. I'm focusing on that as opposed to trading currently. I haven't had time to trade lately, so please understand that it's not personal if I don't respond. 

Hey all, my trading priorities at the moment are vintage (mainly 1972 high numbers) and Topps refractors from the early-mid aughts of past greats (mainly ATFF refractors [2003-2005], Topps Retired refractor autos [2003-2005], Archives Reserve hits [2001-2002], and 2005 Topps Pristine Legends [refractors only]). Offer me any of that stuff and I'll be motivated to work out a deal! We could probably still trade even if you don't have any of that particular stuff, but I ask that you please don't offer me "junk" (forgive the term) unless it's "junk" that you're asking for in return, as I'm generally less interested in overproduced stuff.

Check out my blog Baseball Card Breakdown that I've run since 2013. I also do a 1991 MusiCards Blog where I get to ramble more about my youth and music I like. Also worth noting that I occasionally make my own custom cards, often printing extras for trading and surprise bonus throw-ins.

I haven't logged that much of my collection/wants into TCDB yet, but I'm working on it. My card blog, however, features a big wantlist as well as a trade bait page that I'd encourage potential trade partners check out in addition to the "trade matching" option here. Thanks!

BIO

Thank you for your interest in my profile! My name is Jack and I'm a hobbyist & collector in southern NJ. I live in the greater Atlantic City area and am a lifelong supporter of Philadelphia sports franchises. I stepped away from the hobby for almost 30 years until my oldest son reignited my interest in mid-2023.

___________

BASEBALL

My personal collection of sports cards & memorabilia is mainly baseball. Go Phillies! I'm a set-builder, through-and-through and I especially enjoy the chase of hunting the variety of parallels, refractors, and inserts in recent Topps and Bowman sets (i.e., from about 2020 onwards).

I'm just now starting to explore the vintage card space, as well, but am warming to it a lot more slowly, mainly due to my own ignorance. I'm considering making the 1953 Bowman Color set my White Whale; they're just so attractive to the eye. However, I'm working on the 1957 Topps set as a more accessible entry point into collecting sets from the era. Please feel free to offer up additional suggestions.

I'm less interested in junk wax, but don't hold me to that.

___________

NON-SPORTS

A lot of my recent collecting has been focused on all manner of non-sports ​trading cards. I'm especially interested in products featuring characters from Marvel, DC, Star Wars, Star Trek: TNG, or anything tied to pop culture of past eras. I'm also really starting to enjoy historical sets. Finally, I'm a child of the '80s and '90s, so I have a soft spot for anything released from about 1975 to 2000, but I can also appreciate oldies, especially if it's film or television.

___________

TRADING PHILOSOPHY

• Will consider trades of all shapes and sizes
• Will also consider any purchase offers made in good faith
• Will trade and ship to all 50 U.S. states, U.S. territories, U.S. military POs, and Canada with limited exceptions
• Will consider other international trades if responsibility for payment of shipping costs is agreed upon in advance
• Will ship via PWE with 'Non-machinable' label and sufficient First Class Mail postage by default, unless weight/size restrictions prevent doing so
• Will happily send via other methods (e.g., with tracking enabled) upon request, especially for high-value items; prior agreement on this point must be established before either party sends out their leg of the trade, else the above, default method will take precedence
• Love the site's PIF mentality; I try to keep trade proposals balanced and kindly ask my trading partners to do the same
• Communication is the key — please accept/decline proposals in a timely manner, convey information about delays or returned packages, or just tell me that life is getting in the way and you need a few days

___________

Willing to sell anything on my trade list so feel free to put an offer out there. Typically will sell any common (1980 and after) for 5 to 7 cents each plus shipping, with good prices on stars, inserts, and rookies, too (usually 10 to 25 cents each). I'll try to give you a price you can't find anywhere else online.

TRADING 

U.S. trades preferred. Will trade to Canada if cards are harder to find ones.

Prefer trades of at least a few cards or a single higher value card to make it worth the time/stamp. 

Trades will ship in PWE unless other arrangements are made. Will send a maximum of 8 cards PWE to Canada.

Always happy to trade my newer baseball rookie cards in exchange for junk wax era rookie cards on my want list.

If you aren't going to list a condition for your cards, please know that I expect cards from 1987 - present to be EX-MT or better.

For vintage cards (and any newer card that isn't at least NRMT), I have conservative estimates of condition listed for most. Feel free to ask for more info on condition for specific cards. Generally, I look for VG or better for vintage coming my way, though will go to the Good range in some cases. Mainly try to avoid writing, major creases, and paper loss. 

Willing to trade across eras and sports if deal is a good one.

Hey everybody, Jeremy here.

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

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

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

I will always send PWE, unless the trade is over 30+ cards, then use a padded envelope.

I enjoy collecting: (ranking week of 4/22 ---> 5/6)
* Shaquille O'Neal (#24 ---> #22) (765 Cards | 4.6% Complete)
* Ken Griffey Jr. (#42 ---> #42) (1,317 Cards | 4.2% Complete)
* Dan Marino (#15 ---> #15) (969 Cards | 5.0% Complete)
* Kobe Bryant (#29 ---> #27) (693 Cards | 1.5% Complete)
* Michael Jordan (#92 ---> #92) (615 Cards | 3.8% Complete)
* Lebron James (#22 ---> #23) (156 Cards | 0.9% Complete)
* Alex Rodriguez (#33 ---> #33) (445 Cards | 1.7% Complete)
* Ricky Williams (#7 ---> #7) (252 Cards | 5.1% Complete)

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

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

I do have a SportsLots Page for selling as well: https://www.sportlots.com/dealers/?dealer=Jmo34353

I have a unique work schedule that keeps me away from the card room at times but I try to communicate regularly in regards to where I stand during transactions. Willing to do any size trade across sports/eras.

*Of note, some of the 70s & 80s baseball and football cards on my tradelist have conditions indicated and some do not.  It's a work in progress for me to have all of these updated.  If you have any questions about any, I'd be happy to answer them.  Most of my vintage traders have condition issues to some degree (some are fillers only!). If you're looking for nm or ex-mt, I'm probably not your guy. If you need/want fillers or lower grade, they can be had for minimal/no trade depending on the situation. Thanks!

I have close to 1,500 give or take UNIQUE John elway cards. All in all with dupes, I probably have close to 3,000 Elway cards.  I have not actively persued any of his cards in over 9 years. My main focus of my collection are baseball cards.

I build all of the major brands sets. I collect ALL Braves as a separate collection, and I also have Player Collections with apx. 1,500 different PC guys. I have a baseball card blog on blogger (Johnnnystradingspot).

I also collect Wacky Packages. Especially the originals.

Baseball only set builder of all brands and years. Collecting all Topps needs as well as any and all Cleveland baseball needs (Spiders, Naps, Indians, Guardians).

Home of the Time Travel Trading Project!

With a few exceptions, every card older than 2016 listed on my FS/T is part of my Time Travel Trading Project. The project goal is to get an older card than what I sent out. I provide monthly updates on my blog as well.

The following cards are part of the Time Travel Trading Project, but the sets are not yet listed on the TCDB:

1. 1964 Ed-U-Cards Washington Senators Baseball Card Game #NNO Ball
2. 1930 All-Fair Authors Card Game (non-sport) #13 Louisa May Alcott
3. 1890 N245 Sweet Caporal Actors & Actresses (non-sport) #NNO Frankie Raymond

The primary teams I collect are: St. Louis Cardinals, Portland Trail Blazers, Oregon Ducks (college and alums), Portland Timbers and Portland Beavers. Secondary interests include collecting sets (especially Topps Heritage and Allen & Ginter) and picking up the odd Philadelphia Eagles card that suits my liking.

I absolutely do not use the pricing feature on TCDB for trading (or for anything, really.) Common sense should prevail here.

I am always interested in numbered, autographed and/or memorabilia cards related to the above teams/players, even if they aren't in my want list.

Cards in my collection are not for trade or sale unless specifically marked as "for sale/trade". I'm open to PWE and larger offers to all countries. Please let me know immediately if you do not want cards sent via PWE.

Notes for trading pre-1980 cards: For anything on my want list, I am most likely interested regardless of condition (within reason, of course.) For anything in my trade list, I have made an effort to add a condition tag to anything that I would consider less than near mint. I have zero experience in actually grading cards, though, so feel free to reach out if you want more details about any individual card including a scan or picture.

I am busy, busy, busy, but go ahead and send trade offers. I'll do my best to get back to you. Most of my traders are in storage, but they're accessible. If it's from 2020 or newer, I should have it with me.

Bagwell, Biggio, Nolan Ryan, Astros/Colt .45s, 60's-70's Pirates, Pre-1967 Baseball.

** PWE trades work better at the moment, unless you've got something really special for me. **

I collect baseball,basketball and football from 1978 to present!

I collect baseball,basketball and football from 1978 to present!

I collect Topps baseball base sets 1972 to present and Texas Rangers. I also collect different players, but I am sticking to only Topps base cards. I will add non-Topps base cards to my player collections, but I'm not trying to track them all down.

Currently, I collect Ronald Acuna Jr, Ozzie Albies, Tim Anderson, Elvis Andrus, Nolan Arenado, Buddy Bell, Adrian Beltre, Mookie Betts, Jacob deGrom, Rafael Devers, Adolis Garcia, Paul Goldschmidt, Juan Gonzalez, Vladimir Guerrero Jr, Ron Guidry, Bryce Harper, Clayton Kershaw, Shohei Ohtani, Ivan Rodriguez, Corey Seager, Marcus Semien, Juan Soto, Fernando Tatis Jr, Mike Trout, Kyle Tucker, Bobby Witt Jr. and Michael Young. 

I'm open to trades, but want to keep my trading within the U.S. for now. 

Update after 6 months on site (joined on Thanksgiving 2020; couldn't host or travel that day due pandemic lockdown)

I continue to be impressed by the membership here.  100 deals completed, and only 2 with issues (1 wasn't delivered due p.o. imcompetence, trading partner made it right immediately; and another trader didn't fully describe item with a major flaw and then sent incorrect cards but made up for it after a 2 month wait).  All partners I've dealt with show commitment to shipping quickly and doing drama-free deals, and I sincerely hope that continues!  Haven't yet completely decided how to handle vintage card deals, it just seems easier to deal with modern stuff so there are no disagreements regarding card condition which can get sticky at times.

Near term direction and goals:  Add Mike Schmidt needs to wantlist, add wants in 2002 Topps 206 and 2003 Topps 205 mini sets (non-polar bear backs) and complete 2009 Topps 206 mini set with all Piedmont-back SP variations.

The most enjoyable trades I've found were with individual team 'super collectors'.  I've got enough oddball stuff going back to the early 70s that I can usually find something they've been in search of for a while, and I enjoy the dig!

DISCLOSURE:

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

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

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

Everything else Ex+/Nm or better.

White Sox, Michigan Wolverines and many player collections

I use this site to keep track of my collections so please don't send trade requests. I don't have enough time keep up with my collections to add trading to it. Even my want lists are to just make it easier to narrow down what I need in a set.

*** trades  CLOSED at  this time**

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

Cardinals Baseball any year any brand

Some Vintage Topps Baseball Set Building (in any condition).....

Also doing 9 page project of John Riggins (Football/Redskins), see want list, can use dupes of some.

Memphis Grizzlies basketball added to want list past few years

I have NOT separated my traders into dot and no dot variations (or letter variations).  If this matters to you, I do not mind checking for a particular one for your want list...

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..

Oddball/Food Issue/Magazine/insert cards- Typically these have a much smaller print run/population than regular set cards like topps, fleer, upper deck etc.    When trading for these, I like to get similar for similar.  I will likely not accept a trade offer of oddball card for regular issue set cards.

Completed 2812+ trades with 641 different traders (in multiple groups) since 2005

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

Everything in dupes collection is available for trade even if not in trade/sales list

I can only ship on weekends ....

Some of you may be frustrated that I turn off trades, but here is why:

I am in multiple trading groups, and simply do not have time to do more than 1 or 2 trades at a time

I am open to offers if you want to buy although my primary focus is trading.

Barry Larkin primarily, also a set collector (mostly Allen & Ginter, both original 1800s and the modern Topps sets)

LEGO  (Don't have anything I'm looking for?  I'll happily trade baseball cards for LEGO stuff)!

I have my own baseball card collecting Discord server (see my profile for an invite link)!  I host contests, giveaways, and plenty of group breaks over on my Discord!  I also run my own baseball card group break page over on Facebook though most of the action has moved over to the Discord to keep things all in one place.

Finally, I am willing to sell cards from my For Trade lists but I now require a potential buyer to include their price in their initial request.

Shipping only to USA and Canada currently.  Trades involving 9 or fewer cards will be shipped via PWE (cards in a row of a 9-pocket page) unless other arrangements are made prior to the completion of the trade.  

I'm willing to sell if you don't have anything to offer in return that I need.  I'm also willing to buy if I don't have anything to offer in return to you!  Shoot me a message.

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

I am a collector that enjoys trying to complete sets that strike my eye. I also like to collect Angels (LA, Anaheim, or California) for baseball. Some of my favorite players I like collecting are:

Don Mattingly

Tim Salmon (ranked #4 on TCDB, 5/5/2024)

Jered Weaver (ranked #3 on TCDB)

Mike Trout

***I am currently on a collecting goal of trying to acquire the 1997 Donruss baseball set, the 2008 Upper Deck Icons football set and 1994-95 Flair hockey set.  If anyone can help accommodate these goals, it would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you to all who helped me reach the finish line with the 1994 Fleer Marvel Masterpieces Hildebrandt Brothers comic set and the1995 Skybox Premium football set.  ***

I will try to respond to any offer within a few days.  I only trade on this site.  Not looking to buy.

If there are any trades that involve the cards from Donruss sets of late 80s and early 90s, I have only listed them to trade.  They do not represent which version I truly have as I do not have the time or the eyesight to verify each and every card.  Please let me look into cards that are asked for to verify the version being asked about.  As for recieving these cards, I am ok with whichever variation of the card you have to offer.

***I just bought a huge collection and will be turning off trading until I can get everything sorted.  I should be back later in the summer.***

Looking to complete sets, mostly 1985-2005   Wantlists are up to date.

Trading quantity for quantity, quality for quality.  No 25 for 1 trades for a HOFer.

Will do small or large trades.  Not looking to buy/sell at this time.

For the print mark variation sets, I selected choice "a" for all cards, so if you are looking for a specific variation let me know and I will confirm what I have.  In trade, I do not care which print mark version I receive.

Pre-1985 cards will be EX or Ex-MT, maybe worse.  Please ask for condition on specific older cards.

All Minnesota teams including Twins, Timberwolves, Vikings, Wild and North Stars (Past NHL). Building 2019 Topps Heritage set. Thanks to the traders I have had transactions with I need less than 70 cards to go in the 725 card Base Set. I have also added the insert sets to my set build. They are in my Wantlist. My FSFT list is bigger than it used to be, but please know that I literally have thousands more that I have not listed yet. If you have something on my Wantlist, I may have something you are looking for as well. Matching sport to sport, or era to era, or value to value doesn't really matter to me. Very willing to trade for one card I need by sending multiple cards to a potential trader. PWE is preferred.

Looking to trade for any and all St. Louis Cardinals that I do not have.  Only want cards showing the player in a Cardinals uniform (I do not need Nolan Arenado Rockies cards)  There are tons not listed on my want list that I need.  Always willing to listen to a trade offer.  Will also trade for Jose Altuve cards that my son needs.  

PWE or bubble mailer is fine with me.  Please put all cards in sleeves or 9 pocket pages and use blue (or any color) painters tape over the top of any top loaders or sheets.  Shoving cards into team bags without a sleeve results in bent corners. I have received quite a few packages from traders who must own stock in a scotch tape company.  Don't over due it to the point that I may damage a card removing it from an envelope.  Bending over one edge of the tape to create a pull tab is always helpful.  Please let me know if you receive any damaged cards or postage due mailers from me so I can make it right.

I have not owned a price guide in over 10 years.  I try to use sold EBAY auction prices if trading for high dollar cards.  If I shoot you an offer that is way off, feel free to counter.  It is not my intention to insult anyone.   

Last, but not least remember to HAVE FUN!  This is a hobby.    

Cal Ripken Jr., Orioles Team Sets, Orioles autographs

60's-current baseball, football, hockey, and basketball, and Boston teams. Collecting star/HOF players, not trying to complete sets, but I'm happy to trade with set builders. Also happy to trade across sports if the value is reasonably balanced. If I'm trading vintage (up to 1980 or so), I'd prefer to receive vintage, but there can always be exceptions. Like many TCDB members, I've realized that the site prices are often junk, so I usually pay attention to the wanted/available ratios (the red and green numbers) instead, to get an idea of scarcity.

All of my traders up to the mid-90's are marked with grades, all are smoke-free, and pics will be shared as needed. Ideally, trades should involve cards that are similar to each other in condition. Most of my vintage are VgEx or better so that's what I'd prefer to receive, but there may be opportunities to trade lower grade for lower grade. I'd like to avoid obvious creasing, terrible centering/miscuts, writing, water stains, etc.

I have too few wants to match up for a lot of large trades, so most are PWE, unless the value is high or we happen to have a lot of matches. Any size is worth considering, and I've done a few one-for-ones. Want list is a mix of realistic targets and wishful thinking.

For anyone who has a lot of wants that match my FS/T, but not much in the other direction, I'd be open to selling. For those who enjoy a good bulk lot, the entirety of my 'Red Sox for sale' collection (~750 cards 1990-present) is available for sale for $40 shipped within the US.

Mainly vintage.  Prefer 70s to mid 80s.  Mostly baseball, but also football and basketball.  Trading inserts and doubles for my needs,  I also collect Don Money, Frank Tanana, Bill Madlock, Bobby Murcer, Dave Baldwin, Jim Adducci, Ken & Bob Forsch, Rick & Paul Reuschel, Al Oliver, Erik Kratz, Haven Moses, Willie Buchanon, Bobby Portis, Khris Middleton, Jrue Holiday, Giannis and many others!  
 

Special obsession with 70s Hostess!

Would like to trade for Brewer parallels.
 

I'd like to trade base for base, if possible.  Vintage for vintage, again if possible.

I'm jumping back into the trading game again, however, I will probably only have 1 or 2 nights a week to devote to it, so if you send a request, please be patient as it might take me awhile to take a look at it.

Main collecting focus: Tino Martinez, Ty Hensley, Anthony Volpe

I'll stop collecting when i have one of everything

I collect mainly Baseball, Football, Hockey and just about anything else that catches my eye.  Mainly 60's through current

Logged in 100,000 cards on the site and only have 125,000 more to go . . . hope i live long enough to get finished.  

I have to believe in reincarnation . . . .will probably take at least 2 lifetimes to organize my collection.

My Want List is sparce at the moment, but if you see anything that interests you from my trade list, drop me a line and i'll look at your trade list and I'm sure we can come up with some kind of trade.

Only interested in trading right now, but if you find something on my Sell/Trade list I might be willing to sell them.

Due to seemingly spending more time with the clerk at the post office than my wife, i will only be shipping on Monday, Thursday and Saturday.
