*** To anyone who has sent me an offer, I have over 20 in my offers right now. I am trying to respond to them in the order they came in, without overwhelming myself with accepted trades. Please be patient with me, and do not blackball me from trading with you.***

ALL CARDS ON TRADE LIST ARE FOR SALE OR TRADE. 

USA TRADES ONLY PLEASE

PC/TRADING:

Cal Ripken is my only real PC, trying to get as many as I can.

I have a preference towards the Orioles and RC's.

Looking to mostly do deals where I send you 5-6 cards on your list and get 1-2 in return.

When trading Autos, Relics or SP's, I would want one of those in return, or a higher quality Ripken in return. 

Will most likely not trade one of those for a base card but you never know.

Feel free to send me an offer for what cards you would like, empty on your side, and I will find something from your list that I am interested in.

SHIPPING:

I do all of my trades PWE, unless we discuss that beforehand. I understand that once in a blue moon cards coming either direction get lost, I have 200+ transactions that can attest to my credibility and reliability when it comes to this.

If you are not ok with this please do not trade with me. Things getting lost in the mail sucks, but it happens

GRADING:

 I am trying to update condition on my cards as I enter new ones and go through as I am pulling trades. If the card does not have any issues I will mark it as EX-MT. and then work my way down from there. I am NO expert when it comes to grading as it is not something I care about, but just trying to give a rough idea on condition for you.. 

Can't wait to trade with as many different people as possible and hope to do some great deals!

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. :)

let go...

My PC: Topps base and inserts of Yankees, ASR Team trophy cards, RC set.

If I have cards in my for sale or trade list and you have none of my wants make an offer I would like someone to have these cards and if you make a reasonable offer to cover my mailing costs I may send them your way. I prefer to mail in protected PWE so look for 18 or less please. TJ

Hall of Famers and LA Dodgers

Current Lakers and Rams

Own many more cards not in database

Have many sport magazines from last 50 years to trade for cards

Recently purchased a collection of 1966 to 1969 Topps baseball cards and I have many to trade.

Robin Yount Super Collector - my collection is currently ranked 5th on the site (and climbing!)

I'm currently building a 1967 Topps baseball "beater" set - creases, ink marks and all!

Also searching for George Brett, Nolan Ryan, Pete Rose, and Alan Trammell items.

Looking to move extra and unwanted cards for my PC needs, I'm not hesitant to make large trades. I'm also not obsessed with trading 'card-for-card' or for exact 'value'. If you see a card you need, make an offer - I'd love to help you finish sets and add to your collection.

Visit my YouTube channel 'The Vintage Composer' for more info on sports card collecting, moments in sports history, trivia, and more!

Montreal Canadiens, Montreal Expos, Montreal Alouettes.

Martin Brodeur, Patrick Roy, Gretzky, Mario Lemieux, Sakic

OPC hockey parallel sets, pre-1973 hockey sets, vintage opc baseball sets.

Prewar, post war, Clemente, Menko, Modern.  I like’m all!

NOTICE: I've decided to make a slight change my trading approach.   I really don't have any interest in doing these large "player collection" trades anymore.  I'm a set collector and all my traders are stored by set (in nearly 100 3,200 count boxes).  It sometimes takes me hours to pull cards where someone is only looking for certain players.  What's worse, I recently had a guy screw me on a trade after I pulled 120 random cards.   Going forward, I will be rejecting these types of trades.  I'm looking to help people complete their sets and vice versa.  Sorry, but I hope you understand.  Craig

I’ve been collecting cards for over 47 years and have over 503,000 unique cards in my main collection, including some nice vintage stuff.  I collect older cards of the four major sports but lately I've been expanding to some more recent sets.  I'm primarily a Set Builder and I’m looking for other like-minded set builders to trade with.   I’ve accumulated tons of extra cards that I would like to trade away with almost 250,000 cards in my current For Trade list.  Big trades don't bother me. I have a huge Want List, so hopefully you have something I need.  Feel free to make me an offer. 

For Canadian Traders: It's expensive for me to trade across the border.  Going forward I would like to limit cross border trades to two (2) PWEs. That's about 54 standard-size cards.  Thanks.

For Anyone Outside US/Canada: The increased postal rates have made it impossible for me to trade outside North America cheaply.  So going forward I will have to decline trades from outside US/Canada.  Sorry about that.

Update on Donruss/Leaf * Variations and Upper Deck Holo Variations:
I can't guaranty the junk wax era Donruss/Leaf cards and the UD holo variations are listed with the correct variation.  Going forward I will no longer check the variations on these cards.  If you want these cards regardless of the variations, feel free to request them in the trade.  However, If you want a specific variation of these cards, I'm no longer your guy - please don't put them in the trade request.  For all other cards that have variations, I will continue to check and make sure you get the correct one.

Note on Vintage Cards:
I have over 6,000 vintage cards listed for trade (I consider vintage to be 1977 or earlier).  For each card I've noted a condition grade and if you check closer, a note on each regarding any condition issues (be sure to select the correct one if multiple cards are shown).  Please note that I'm by no means a professional grader and if you're hyper-sensitive on card condition, please message me first and I'd be happy talk about it.  In exchange for these cards, I have three priorities:

• 1) similar vintage cards that I need (any sport)
• 2) inserts for my 90s sets that I need (any sport)
• 3) or non-junk era base cards that i need as a last resort (any sport)

Note on Card Condition: A card noted as Pr, Fr, Gd, or GdVg will have some obvious condition issues such as creasing, corner wear, or marks.  I would consider them place holders in a collection at best (I've listed them because some people do want place holders).  A VG card will usually be a clean card with some corner wear or a centering issue.  For me, VG would be the bare minimum for my personal collection.  EX will be nice sharp card and VgEx will be something just between VG and Ex, still a nice card with a small issue that prevents it from being EX.  NM in vintage is a tough find.

Focus is mostly on collecting Baseball Cards.  Enjoy collecting Football and Hockey Cards, as well.  There are a few Basketball, Boxing and Racing Cards stashed in my PC currently.  Incredibly grateful for this amazing Trading Card Community here with so many fine Collectors!! 

TRADING AVAILABILITY HAS RESUMED!

12/4/2023 - Updated my PC lists, so there will be a mass of Jackie Robinson, Roberto Clemente & Corbin Burnes cards available for sale/trade here soon.  As I mention below, my want list is quite narrow, so I am more than willing to sell cards if we don't match up for a trade.  

Came across tcdb.com towards the end of 2019, and I have now completed over 1,500 transactions, with over 23,000 cards changing hands!  Love everything about this site.  I have met so many cool people from all over the Country, and even a few from Canada and beyond. (Just completed a trade to Finland, as a matter of fact).

Stole this from another member, but......my goal is to have zero cards in my For Sale/Trade List.  So keep the proposals comin'!

(I know my Want List is relatively small, so I am certainly willing to Sell cards if we don't have enough matches to work out a trade)

My PC list is as follows (with TCDB rankings as of 2/9/2024):

NBA: Giannis (4), Dirk Nowitzki (4), and Tim Duncan (2).  

NFL: Sterling Sharpe (3), and Don Majkowski (2)

MLB: Robin Yount (7), Tony Gwynn (6), Hal Morris (3), Mark Grace (7), Pat Listach (1) and Mark Langston (1)

Golf: Rickie Fowler (2)  & Joel Dahmen (2)

WWE: Lita (3)

UFC: Conor McGregor (4)

Non-Sport: Eddie Vedder, Judah Friedlander, Big Jay Oakerson, The Brothers Osborne (TJ & John), Rob Riggle, Bert Kreischer, Tom Segura, Charlie Berens, Post Malone and Brody Stevens

Although I currently live in Florida, I was born in Milwaukee.....hence my obsession with Wisconsin sports teams.  Ha.

Please check out my For Sale/Trade list, and feel free to message me or send me trade proposals any time.....let's see what we can get done!  (I don't necessarily trade based on "book value", but rather the value to me, so please feel free to counter if I propose a trade that you feel is unfair.  I also have no rules about "insert for insert" or any of that nonsense, so don't be shy to shoot me a proposal)  

I collect cards, stamps, and coins. 

I want to collect all 39 of Joe Ferguson's cards. Why? Because in 1976 every 11 year old kid playing backyard football quarterback in Rochester, NY was pretending to be him. I was one of them. He was my Buffalo Bills childhood hero.

I collect mostly HOF players and a select other few.

My want list is very incomplete. I am adding to it almost every day. If I have cards that you want, let me know and I will take a look at what you have so we can make a deal.

Chicago Blackhawks, Doug Wilson Hockey, Notre Dame Football in their college jerseys, Chicago Bears Older, Chicago White Sox pre-85 and new especially Robert, Vaughn, Montgomery and Rookies... Check out my E-bay store.  

Topps complete sets 1960-present & KC Royals cards

I'm a collector, not an investor. Looking to complete Topps sets, wax pack and pack inserts, from 1952-1995. I have another side collection concentrating on major-brand (non-Topps) issues of Chicago Cubs players, 1981-2017.

Trades only, please.

PWE's welcome!

Your "dumpers" would have a happy home here - I'm not too picky about condition, but would be accommodating if you are.

As one of the lucky ones whose Mom did NOT throw away my childhood card collection, when I started back interested in the hobby in the  early 1980s, I had a lot of late 50's early 60s cards to work with.  Completed my 1961 card set, except for the hard-to-define, yet alone find, errors and variations.  Working on 1959, 1960 and 1963 Topps sets although cost is a deterrent for many of the cards I'm missing!    Trying to complete the inserts of 1961:  Stamps, rub-offs, and World Series pennants.  Working to complete1955 Topps All-American, 1955 Bowman and 1957 football sets.  

Favorite Players to collect:  Hank Aaron (trying for to 10 list), Mike Schmidt, Richie Ashburn

Favorite Teams: 1950s Brooklyn Dodgers. Milwaukee Braves, Philadelphia Phillies of Vet era and beyond.

Highest priority modern era set to complete: 1992 Fleer without worrying about versions (can't see the dots anyway!)  Other partial sets are low priority even if on Want List.

Primary focus is Topps Baseball.  My main goal being the 71 set.  I'm also big into Star Wars.  Don't have much on my want list but I'll never turn down star wars cards I don't already have in my collection.

My son and daughter are both big into different non sports (Pokemon, Mars Attacks, and anything political) and boxing.

If it's on my want list I'm willing to trade for it.  Shoot me an offer.

Trying to fill Topps '68-'72 baseball main sets (vintage). Have '68-'72 cards and oddities to trade. Also have several completed sets in the '85 to '91 range that I would trade.

J. Buhner, A.Rhodes, C.Bosio,  D. Wilson, J.Nelson, J.Kruk, R.Dibble, M.Blowers, R.Myers, D.Boyd, M. Blowers, M. Fidrych, B. Blyleven, D. Parker.

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.

I collect just about anything trading card related, open to trades. I'm always updating my collection feel free to message me. Not interested in buying at the moment. 

Every thing "STORM"

New Jersey Devils cards (up to 1st SC win, 1982-83 to 1995-96)

CITGO Racing (cards & die-cast)

Check out my ebay link to "pazzocow" (store name is "Pazzocow's Pasture")  - lots of Buy It Now items available!

Looking to buy cheap lesser quality vintage baseball and football lots.

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, & 1980 Topps
  2. 1989 & 1991 Donruss Grand Slammers (master sets)
  3. 2001 Upper Deck Decade 1970s and Upper Deck Vintage (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 & 1988-89 Topps
  3. 1989-90, 1990-91, 1991-92 Kraft sets
  4. 2001-02 Topps - 1971-72 Heritage
  5. Any food issued sets

Goal accomplished of all base cards of the St. Louis Blues from inception thru 1990 for O Pee Chee.

Moving on to building sets from the 60's, 70's & 80's and all Blues Upper Deck Base Cards since they began producing cards.

I'm primarily collecting 1969 Topps at the moment. My dad gave me his set when I was a kid and in the last couple years I've been trying to complete it. 

Years ago I had several binders full of cards from my childhood. I got tired of moving them every time I moved and decided it was time to get rid of them. Now that I'm back in the hobby I'm regretting that decision... I'm slowly trying to build the collection back up for my PC and for trading. 

I don't typically look at estimated card values when proposing a trade so if I missed something and it's uneven, let me know and I'm happy to adjust it. I'm more interested in completing my sets at the moment than looking at flipping. 

If there's anything you want on my FS/FT list and we don't have any matches from my Wantlist, feel free to offer something up anyway. I'm always looking for the next set to work on. 

I'm interested in everything but here are the sets that interest me at the moment:

• '69 Topps baseball
• 50's Bowman baseball
• '53-'55 RedMan cards
• 1889 Kinney Bros Leaders
• Football (both modern and vintage)
• Japanese Menko
• Michael Jordan
• Chicago Bears

1968 Topps Baseball -trying to upgrade as much as possible.  Any 68s on my want list is likely to upgrade my existing card in that set.  Looking for centering, sharp corners and no creasing, stains or writing on the card.  Most other sets I do not mind the condition as much.

I rarely wish to trade vintage cards for newer cards--like to stick with same eras in a trade.  However, if you see some of my newer cards and have vintage to offer--I would definitely take a look at that.

Vintage HOFer cards no matter what condition.  Looking to collect at least one card for every MLB HOF member.  Currently at 305/335 collected.

1Need help in 69,70,71,72,73

PC: Nolan Ryan ,  Freddie Patek, Yordan Alvarez, Jose Altuve, Kyle Tucker, Jeremy Pena, CJ Stroud, Astros, Vintage HOF NFL Houston Oilers

Only really collect sets. No single player collections or themes. Finishing off my sets from the 90s, when I last collected, but also taking the plunge into some recent stuff. 
There are an overwhelming number of modern parallel sets and insert sets out there.

Currently collecting:

Baseball:  1994 Donruss & Special Edition, 1995 Leaf & Cornerstones, 1995 Upper Deck & Special Edition & Ruth Heroes, 1996 UD & Lovero inserts.

2021/2022/2023/2024 Topps Flagship and Update Series and some inserts sets. 

2020 Topps Heritage. Couldn’t resist the first set I collected as a kid. The originals are long gone but the memory isn’t.

 
Basketball:  1994-95 Upper Deck Jordan Heroes, 1995-96 UD, 1996-97 UD, & 1997-98 Upper Deck.

Football:   1994 Stadium Club, 1994 Upper Deck Pro Bowl inserts, 1995 Upper Deck.

Hockey:  1994-95 Pinnacle, 1994-95 Upper Deck SP, 1995-96 UD, 1996-97 UD Superstar Showdown, 2021-22 O-Pee-Chee Platinum, 2021-22 UD base and Honor Roll inserts/Black Diamond Retro inserts, 2024 Tim Hortons Duos.

I also have an unopened box of 93-94 Upper Deck hockey and a dozen packs of 92-93 Ultra hockey that I would be happy to trade for similar vintage hockey, baseball, football, or basketball. Better to open something you don’t have instead of something you do.

I am trying to put together a “Frankenset” of 2021-22 OPC Platinum parallels. First time effort at one of these. Welcoming sales or trades along those lines. Much appreciated!

I mostly trade but also buy and sell. The central challenge is to get the right cards to the right people. If cards don't arrive, I do my best to make it right. PWE preferred, multiple if necessary. I will respond to all offers promptly. Typically, I will withdraw proposals after one week, as no response after this time usually signifies a decline.

904 completed trades and counting...

Thanks to all who have participated worldwide. It really is amazing to see your collection evolve. 

I started collecting baseball cards as a kid in the mid to late-80s and collected them through the early 90s. I started out collecting them with my old man, and I look back on those days wistfully. We'd sit up at night and put together sets and lists of our missing cards and that was a great thing to share with him. At some point, though, I outgrew wanting to share that experience with him, choosing instead to share the hobby with my friends. Then I started to notice girls and found other things to spend money on. I boxed up all the cards and traded the innocence of collecting baseball cards for other, less wholesome pursuits.

At some point over the course of the next 2 and a half decades, I somehow outgrew the nomadic life, became an adult, got married, found a permanent place to live, and jumped on the wildest ride of my life: fatherhood. In a fit of cleaning out my old room to make space for her new grandkids (my sister's kids at the time), my mother transported all of the cards from my childhood bedroom and brought them to live with me. To the attic they went, and in the attic they stayed for the better part of the last decade, hidden away and silent.

While working from home during quarantine, I repurposed the attic into a makeshift office to hide from my two kids, who were also at home, and who, despite my and my wife's best efforts, have no conception of privacy or quiet, and care very little for anyone else's productivity--especially when it comes at the expense of their most immediate desire. Stuck in the attic, armed with a laptop, and facing long days of working in solitude, there sat my baseball cards staring back at me, summoning me from a place and time long since gone. In a moment of sports deprived weakness, I answered their call and opened up a couple of boxes to look at my old collection. Glorious!

Within days of our local economy's soft reopening, I found a local card shop, escaped my attic, drove to it, donned a mask, and walked in to buy some new cards. I quickly learned that the days of the $0.50 pack had passed me by--quite a while ago it seems. Undeterred by the effects of what seemed to be hyper-inflation in an economy I had ignored for some 27 years, I left with not one, but two BOXES of baseball cards. Upon opening up the many packs of new cards, I discovered the advent of the insert card's prevalence, and that, unlike unicorns, autographed cards actually DO exist in packs (helllooo Pete Alonso!). Fascinated, and in need of boxes in which to store the cards and toploaders in which to protect them, it was back to the card shop for me. A couple of carboard boxes, a few bags of penny sleeves and some toploaders just couldn't be the extent of my second excursion. So, much like an addict in search of a fix, it was another box of cards for me. 

But, this new lifestyle of big spending on cards I knew nothing about would prove to be unsustainable as my wife and I are also tasked with feeding, clothing, and sheltering (in place) these two children we created. Alas, it was back to the attic for me, and back to shuffling through all of my old cards, sorting out the commons from the hall of famers, sorting out the steroid users from the clean players. Thus, a new collection was born. Hall of Famers. Those are the cards I want to collect.

But, I needed a mechanism for organizing what I had, and what I wanted to get. When I bought my last pack of cards as something other than a novelty back in 1993, the internet was not yet a thing, at least not one to which I had access. I thought: Surely there is some mechanism online to help me organize these cards, and give me reason to continue sorting through this mess. And, after minimal searching on the worldwide web, I discovered TCDB. What a brave new world this is.

I look forward to getting back into the hobby. But, for now, I am going to stick to trying to collect Hall of Famers, mostly vintage (which, I have learned, is now a word in this industry that describes me). I'm less concerned with a card's grading, centering, corners, or condition than I am with the name and face on it. I'm not in this as an investment; I'm in it for an escape. Hopefully when this little 2 year-old ages a few more years, he'll begin to enjoy collecting baseball cards as much as his old man did once upon a time. If so, I hope to bequeath to him a worthwhile collection and to share the experience with him for as long as he'll have me.
