Mostly Basketball 80's to current and 49er's Football

Stopped building sets in 09 and now have stopped chasing SFGiants/49ers in 2019. But still have lots of wants. Due to a generous divorce court had to return to work, so trading is still important to me but now pulling and mailing can only be done on tuesday and wednesday

Collecting all Topps Baseball base sets from 1956 to 2020. 

If I have something on my For Sale/Trade list that you need and you have nothing to trade me, I am more than willing to sell most cards on my FS/T list at a very reasonable price...especially to fellow set collectors!

VAR's: If it's important to you to get a specific variation in a trade, please let me know so I can be sure I have the correct one for you.

MARCH 2024 - My target for return to trading is set, with a new and more targeted trading philosophy.  I come now with a collection that is more organized and focused, with an understanding that I can’t do it all.

MY COLLECTION TARGETS:
1. Vintage (pre-1980) football and basketball
2. 1983-85 Star Basketball
3. Julius Erving cards
4. Men's and Women's Panini FIFA World Cup Stickers
5. 1972 Topps Football - high numbers (#264-351)
6. 1977 Topps Mexican Football
7. 1977-78 Topps Basketball - gray backs
8. MLS cards

NOTE - Trades considered and offered will likely contain cards from the above, but can be combined with other cards.

OTHER NOTES:
My wantlists run through 2010-ish in Football and 2011-12-ish in Basketball, so if you have interesting hits to my recorded FAVORITE PERSONS or FAVORITE TEAMS after those dates, I will strongly consider those when making trades larger.

I prefer larger trades, but I don’t mind trading in smaller quantities, especially with multiple hits to my collection targets listed above.

I will slowly be adding my dupes list of pre-1980 Baseball/Basketball/Football cards with some general condition notes.  I have hesitated to add these cards herein due to the condition of many of them. I never cared much about condition, but I know many of you do. Please see my CONDITION NOTES section below for more specifics.

MY SONS WANT
1. Pokemon from Base Set era through E-Card era (1999-mid-2003), with Rares of other years given strong trade consideration.

CONDITION NOTES:
Condition is not the biggest thing for me at all (especially for vintage cards).  If condition is really important to you, I may not be the best trade partner - perhaps looking elsewhere would be best.  Most of my cards are in terrific condition, but condition has never been my focus.  Any card after 1980 which I have posted on TCDB will rarely have a condition note attached to it.  I will pull a card for condition review in special circumstances.

COMPLETE SETS TO TRADE
 I have a lot of complete sets to trade in Baseball, Basketball, Football, and Soccer - including insert sets and oddball sets. Reach out for a list.

MY COLLECTION:
I am a set builder of select Football, Basketball, and Soccer sets.  I am collecting at least one master set per year, with Stadium Club and Legends sets favored in the more modern years.  As to soccer cards, I collect MLS sets and 1994 Upper Deck World Cup sets.  

I also collect to complete sticker books relating to the NFL and World Cup soccer (Men and Women)  *** Looking for the 2011 Women's World Cup sticker book (and/or stickers). ***

AND, master sets of Raiders, Browns, Packers, Toledo Rockets, Columbus Crew, and Latino NFL players.  AND master player collections of Julius Erving, Allen Iverson, and now Ja Morant.

baseball, football, basketball, hockey

Not Buying at this time, Trade only.

Collects all and all is for sale or trade; want list on Berton Russell account

Craig Biggio, Eric Davis(baseball), Don Beebe All cards Also Cincinnati Teams, Philadelphia Teams, Boston Bruins, Phoenix Suns and Serial Numbered and game used cards.

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)

Mostly baseball, but I collect football, basketball and hockey too. Like the olympic sets, and some non-sports as well. Boston sports fan so always on the lookout for Boston guys.

If you are looking to trade for my vintage items, I am looking for vintage in return with roughly comparable players. If you are asking for vintage hall of famers, there should probably be hall of famers in your offer, not semi-stars or only modern cards. When trading vintage, I am looking for VG-EX and up and I will deliver the same. If I don't have my best guess on card condition in the database, just ask. Definitely not a grader, but I try hard to list fair, accurate grades for my older stuff.

NY/SF Giants baseball cards.

***I have stopped trading indefinitely.***

Will mail PWE for trade of 9 cards or less. I don't buy on TCDb. Only U.S. trades.

• 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.

• Detroit Tigers Topps Team Sets, including SP (Complete 1958 to present)

• Detroit Lions Topps and Donruss post 2015 Team Sets, including SP (Complete 1956 to present)

• West Michigan Whitecaps Team Sets (Complete 1994 to present)

• Topps Flagship Baseball Sets 1970 to present (Complete 1973 to present)

• Any other local teams of interest - Grand Rapids Griffins, Muskegon Lumberjacks, Grand Rapids Rampage, Traverse City Beach Bums, Traverse City Pit Spitters, etc.

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.

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.

I am mainly selling at this time, I am going to be retiring soon and may end up moving. If anyone is intersted in purchasing my entire collection please let me know. Thank you.

Shipping packages to Canada is extremely expensive. However, I recently discovered that a PWE can be mailed with a 2oz. stamp which is 92 US cents. Using legal envelopes, 30 cards can be placed in three stacks (spread out so that it is not a package) and mailed in the envelope. You need to write or print "non-machinable" in the bottom left corner. I have tried it once and I am anxious to try it again.

Phillies and Yankees

If there is a Phillies card I do not have, I want it. :) 

I collect football cards and wrestling cards.  I'm currently trying to work on a full run of Topps football sets from 1956 through 2015, a full run of Score football sets 1989 through the current year and completing a WWE wrestling set each year.  I'm also collecting one rookie card of all NFL players.

I'm looking to trade away all of my FS/FT list.  However, if you don't have anything on my want list, I'd gladly sell any card on my FS/FT list.

I collect error Cards, variations, and all Garrett Whitley or Ian Anderson cards.

If you find something on my for sale/trade list but don't have anything I'm looking for, I am more than happy to sell at very reasonable prices.

For the vintage cards on my wantlist, I am looking for VG+ condition. No creases. 1-2 rough corners is OK, but I don't want 4 rounded ones. Centering isn't too important, as long as I can't see the next card on the front or the back. I want clean, unmarked checklists.  Not all of the vintage on my trade list matches these criteria, and that is why many of them are on my trade list as I have upgraded the cards over the years.  I will let you know condition before agreeing to a trade.

The CJ McCollum and Josh Allen cards on my wantlist are lower priority.  They are there mostly as filler or if you find other hoop/football cards on my trade list that you are interested in.  I'm unlikely to trade higher value baseball for anything other than baseball.  Find a bunch of common baseball and the only matches are McCollum and Allen, we can probably work something out.

I also have a LARGE quantity of 1991 Topps separated out by glow back, non-glow, bold logo, etc.  I don't have them listed on the site as there is no way to distinguish between the glow and non-glow backs.  If you collect these and are looking to trade, please look me up and we will certainly figure something out!

Baseball , Football, Hockey and Non Sports.

PLEASE NOTE:  I DO NOT SELL CARDS.

I am in the process of moving, which will take over a month. I will not be trading during this time period.

(IMPORTANT) I had to add this statement since being ripped off three times on large trades: Should you be a first-time trader with me and no matter how many great feedback notes or how many digits your total trading number is I will insist you mail first and provide a tracking number on larger trades that will be verified prior to my shipping your cards. I have had to do something here since I have lost over 2000 cards due to dishonest people on this site and it stops here and now. THIS IS NOT PERSONAL TO ANYONE it is just my way of protecting my product when trading! Again, to those easily offended traders, spoken in the words of the CAPO: "It's not personal Sunny, it's just good business". Smaller, low dollar trades would naturally not fall into this category and if You and I have traded in the past, please disregard. 

I trade for EX/MT to MT cards. Filling Baseball/Football sets. I have some Basketball and Hockey to trade for Football/Baseball. Fair value trades only! No 91 junk for 70s! All mistakes will be made right. I keep my stock in good condition and inform trade partners of defects. I'll expect same in return.

My Steeler and Pirate binders always have empty pages to fill. I also collect Tony Gwynn and followed his entire career God rest his soul! Hit me up with a trade proposal and we'll see if we can get it done.

Set collector first & foremost. I also like to work on PCs of various Angels: Wally Joyner, Mike Trout, Reggie Jackson, Rod Carew, Tim Salmon, Jim Abbot (Angels only). I also collect Bo Jackson, Jeff Huson, Rod Woodson, Steve Alford, & Martin St. Louis.

Quite happy with PWEs.  Please avoid scotch tape on anything.

I come and go with the seasons in the hobby.  If my status is set to not accept trades it's because I tend to get burned out from time to time.  Don't be shy though, please feel free to message me especially if it's that last card you might need to complete a set!

 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 2023

I love this Database and its Community!  I build Baseball sets and collect ALL Colorado Rockies (especially Helton, Blackmon, and Freeland).  I also collect Dizzy Dean, Ted Williams, Bo Jackson, and Scott Elarton (who I grew up playing ball with).  I also collect Garbage Pail Kids of all years and series, car cards, Desert Shield/Storm and other Military/War cards.  I really enjoy helping out fellow set builders and I’m willing to trade commons at two/three for one to help build and/or complete sets.

Growing up and collecting in the "garbage era" (80s and 90s), I have plenty from that era to trade and still need some to finish my sets.  From there, I'm moving in both directions (back to vintage while trying to keep up with modern) to build and complete sets.  I had a 20-year period (1995-2015) where I didn't collect as I was in the Marine Corps and didn't have the time or focus for the hobby.  Now that I'm retired, I'm trying to play catch up.  When it comes to my vintage collection (vintage to me is older than me, i.e. 1976 and older), I’m not looking for pristine or gradable cards.  My goal is to have an “acceptable” looking card from each set (mostly centered, non-rounded or soft corners, no writing, no creases, no stains).  If it is acceptable for your collection, it’s probably acceptable for my collection.  If you have questions or concerns, let me know.

I love trying to extend the hobby into the future.  I spend time giving cards and supplies to kids as they are the future and it is my hope that they will enjoy the game of baseball and the hobby of collecting as much as I do.

I also have a fairly large collection of football, basketball, and hockey cards from the early 80s to today that are not in the data base.  I'd love to get these into the hands of a collector who can appreciate them.  If that's you, let’s talk!

I also love buying/trading in bulk.  I have purchased and/or traded for entire collections.  If this is you, let’s also talk!

PRIMARY COLLECTION GOALS:
Baseball: Complete Sets, Topps Base and Archives, New York Yankees.
Football: Topps 1969-1974 & 1972 Sunoco
Basketball: Topps 1969-1972
Hockey: Topps 1972-73: (I only need 10 cards from this set, with 55 cards for trade)

MY WANTLIST HIGH PRIORITY ITEMS:

1. pre-1960 Topps baseball
2. 1960-1969 Topps baseball inserts (base set)
3. 1995-2009 Topps baseball inserts (base set)

NOTHING FROM MY WANTLIST?
If you don't have anything on my wantlist, try offering some of these:

• New York Yankees: any card not in my collection
• Complete Baseball Sets: any complete baseball set I don't have in my collection. I like the junk-era small sets and Topps mail-in sets.

NOTE ON TRADING FOR VARS (variations)
Please be willing to verify or send images of VARS offered in trade.

PERSONAL PREFERENCES
Just guidelines, not absolutes. I prefer the following:

• Trade within the same sport. Baseball for Baseball. Football for Football.

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!

2024 goal- same as 2023. So many cards I can't organize, so I'm going to continue to work on some sets. Mainly focusing on pwe right now as far as trades go. 

4/13/24 TRYING TO GET BACK INTO TRADING AGAIN. MOVING SLOW, BUT MOVING.

2024 IS MY 56TH YEAR OF COLLECTING, AND MY 10TH YEAR ON TCDB.

TOP PRIORITIES:

1. 2024 TOPPS BASEBALL SERIES 1 

2. 2024 TOPPS HERITAGE

3. 2023 TOPPS UPDATE

I PREFER TO TRADE WITH JUST USA TRADERS AT THIS TIME. I WORK ON TRADES AS RECIEVED, AND ATTEMPT TO CONTACT EACH POTENTIAL TRADER TO LET THEM KNOW WHAT PHASE THEIR TRADE IS IN.

SO, THANKS FOR YOUR PATIENCE, TRADING IS OPEN.

I GUESS I NEED TO ADD THE FOLLOWING DISCLAIMER....I HAVE SOME HOF CARDS, AND SOME CARDS FROM THE 60'S AND 70'S. I PREFER TO TRADE THOSE CARDS FOR SIMILAR TYPE NEEDS. I PROBABLY WILL NOT TRADE HOF OR OLDER CARDS FOR NEWER GYPSY QUEENS AND ARCHIVE OR HOCKEY CARDS. SO, IF I TURN DOWN YOUR TRADE, PLEASE DON'T TAKE IT PERSONALLY.I AM PASSING ON CANADA TRADES AT THIS TIME. IT COSTS TOO MUCH AND THE DELAYS IN RECIEVING THE ITEMS IS TOO LONG. SORRY, NOTHING PERSONAL.

Searching for all the Topps base and update sets up to 2021.  Always looking to add Giants that I don't have!

Toronto Blue Jays, Montreal Expos, Charlie Simmer, Canadian MLB Players

Kansas City Royals

*** 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.

Yankees, Don Mattingly, Tri-City Valley Cats, Topps base sets

I enjoy collecting football and baseball sets all major manufactures Topps, Fleer, Leaf, Upper Deck, Score (that all I can think of right now) 1970's to present, 

I have also started a collection of my favorite NHL team the Nashville Predators.

Set building is my major goal condition is secondary. I do not mind a small crease or a rounded corner if a card is needed to complete a set. 

I do not grade cards but I will let you know if a card has an obvious flaw before I accept the trade. 

I do not mind PWE trades. I always ship in bubble mailers and with tracking if the budget permits. That is my personal preference I do not require or ask it to be yours.

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. 

I usually wait to ship on the weekends.  During the week I teach all day, then either work with sick kids online from 5-9pm or work at the farm with our horses.  PLEASE BE PATIENT!!!  It might take me several days to respond, I try my best to not "ghost" anyone.  

Current Top Priorities: I am neck-deep in a 2021 Bowman Draft Pittsburgh Pirates TEAM rainbow. Any help would be appreciated!! 

Due to shipping costs, I will no longer be shipping internationally unless my Canadian friends have a bunch of OPC trade matches.

#1. Pittsburgh Pirates (mostly team sets)

#2. Baseball Subsets: Ray Lankford PC, Keith Williams PC, Denny's Holograms, Topps Glossy Rookies, Topps All-Star Rookies, Topps Multi-Rookie cards from the 70's, Upper Deck Star Rookies and Prospects

#3. Football: Steelers, Topps Super Rookies

#4. Basketball: Upper Deck Rookie Standouts and Draft Picks, early Sky Box Draft Picks

#5. Hockey: Claude Loiselle PC

Chicago Cubs

Chicago  Blackhawks

 Kansas City Chiefs

Vintage baseball up to 1982. I make sure that any cards I send out are not creased or stained or wrecked up. I would appreciate the same consideration. If you dont have anything to trade and I have cards on your want list I am more than happy to accept paypal and will send your cards out with tracking.

I am set set builder strictly with baseball any and all sets are wanted.

Due to the limit on how many cards that can be placed on the wantlist, if you don't see it in my collection then I want it. 

I DO NOT trade from my Collection unless there are two of the same card that you are needing.

As of right now My Trade list is turned off while I try and finally get organized 12/04/2023. 

Thanks,

Looking for small PWE trades of less than 10 cards. Willing to consider any card from a Cleveland sports team whether it is on my Wantlist or not.

Cody Bellinger Super Collector ... Cowboys, Lakers, Dodgers, Star Wars 

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

PCs: Cleveland Browns, Mets, Topps Football, Gooden, Strawberry, Carter, Piazza, Dykstra. Only in Mets unis for the single players.

Any PCs 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; 74 currently.  Condition not necessarily a priority on older cards, just no holes, missing paper, wicked creases, rounded corners...

VARs are important to me concerning Mets and Browns cards. They are not for Topps sets.

Working on validating all VARs on my FST List; I may not have the correct VAR that matches your want list. I edit FST sets as trades arise. Any VAR trades will be verified prior to accepting.

Sets verified so far:

Football: 83 Topps Stickers, 84 Topps, 86 Topps, 87 Topps, 89 Topps, 91 Ultra, 91 UD

Baseball: 83 Fleer Stickers, 89 Donruss, 90 Donruss; INC or INC. Verified. (You're on your own with border VARs), 90 Fleer, 91 Donruss, 92 Donruss, 92 Leaf

Please understand, my FST cards are "trading cards". They are stored in monster boxes, moved back and forth plenty, to fill trade requests. they older they get, the more "character" they show. I will let you know if a card has major flaws. I am in no way shaming collectors who prefer minty cards, but I will never consider any of my cards mint. If mint or as close to mint as possible are the level of card you are searching for, please pass me by. I do not want to waste either of our time and put you in a position where you aren't satisfied.

I am a "maximize postage" guy.  Please keep requests to a 9-card minimum. Exceptions may be made for special cards. Thank you for understanding.

Not accepting trades at this time.

Currently focusing on finishing 1969 and 1971 Topps sets and last cards for Hall of Fame members.  Also, Topps base of Washington Nationals, but really open to anything.  For smaller trades, tend to go with PWE.

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.

Cincinnati Teams, especially Reds. Trying to fill my Cincinnati Stars Binders, Reds, Bengals, and Bearcats (FB/BB). Also, Reds certified Autos+Game Used Cards from 2006-Present. If you have something that I need, shoot me a message. I'll find something for you.

If you see something that you want, my link to Sportlots is below. If it's not on there, I can put it on there.

My football cards are or should be 100% correct, I would like to move as many as I can out of the 90,000 I have for trade. Also, my girls are collecting Pokémon cards and have asked if I can trade for cards they dont have, any help would be great. They do have a ton of duplicates that are not listed on the site because they like to trade with friends at school. All their trade cards are in great shape, not game played.

OKAY THAT IS IT FOR NOW! NO MORE TRADING TO BE DONE BY ME. I am struggling financially - cannot afford the postage to send stuff out. Simple as that. Trying to get back into my career or management. Right now just a security guard.

 Ask before submitting a trade request. If you don't, I will refuse your offer.. Locals to Twin Cities area and Minnesota have top priority. 

Moved recently and thinned out my collection by about half. Cards are all packed away, my inventory is not accurate and I will not have time to do anything with my cards for the foreseeable future. Hopefully someday I'll have time to get back on the horse!

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 3/4/2024]

Note: Currently transactions are ON.

While 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.)
