 Happy Trading.....TOM.....

May 2024 - Things are back to semi-normal.  Apologies to anyone who had to withdraw a trade while I was absent.  I thought I would have a little more time than I did the past few months.  I will have an excess of free time end of May and start of June.  Hope to ramp up to some heavy trading for that time.

___

TLDR; PWE trades, US and overseas trades need to to worth the postage.  Prefer larger trades.  Won't trade a $5 card for 50 x 10 cents commons that dozens of other members are also trading.  I try to match years when trading.  I have low end inserts not listed.  Will sell, Junk wax commons starting at 5 cents.  Not looking to buy unless you have cards very few other members do, and cheaper than sportlots. Sometimes I am slow in trade talks but get accepted trades out in 48 hrs.

___

My main collecting goal on TCDB is finishing my older incomplete sets.  Secondary goal, is to get base card for various projects.  Majority of those are older hockey including some junk wax era sets.  My wants listed here are all low-end.  I will also sell cards, starting at 5 cents.  Stars, rookie, inserts and more recent sets may be more.  Will discount for bulk buys.

When trading base cards, I try to match up years.  Example, I am not a fan of trading 2004 cards for 1992 cards.  A few I don't mind but not in bulk or the entire trade. Also, my Young Gun Goalies for trade are only available for other Young Gun goalies I need or similar value. 

My trade list on TCDB is incomplete.  Majority of my list are base cards.  I have not listed my inserts, parallels, jerseys, etc..  or other non-base.  I also have some early 80s that are in various condition.  If you have a lot of my wantlist but I have little off of yours, send me a message if you collect certain players or teams and I can check my unlisted non-base to see of we have a match.

I prefer PWE trades within Canada.  Like to do trades from 20 to 200 cards.  I will trade with the US but will be more particular as postage cost usually outweighs the cards.  Any trades overseas will need to be of cards I can't trade for domestically or value enough, to justify the shipping/handling. 

I use team bags with filler cards/cardboard, or 9 pocket pages.  Cards of value ($5+) will be top loaders.  Unless the cards are of value, they will not get individual sleeves.  If I use sleeves, there may be multiple cards per sleeve.  If you strongly desire a bubble mailer, be sure to include it in the message of the trade offer.

I don't always respond to trade offers ASAP.  Sometimes I have other offers on the table that I am waiting on or need to think about a deal.  Sometimes I do the right thing and send a message, but usually I tend not to.  I will try to be better but apologies in advance anyways.  When a trade is accepted, my goal is to get the cards in the mail within 2 business days. 

I have a number of 79-80 and 80-81 OPC on my wantlist.  For those I am looking for excellent or above.  Fuzzy and slightly rounded corners are fine but I am not interested in creased cards, corners that are rounded like playing cards, or cards that have centering so bad that some of the card is off the card.  For the 80s cards I have listed, they are in VG/Ex or better.  If I wouldn't want to receive it in a trade, I don't list it.

I mention all of this so you know what to expect.  Also do onto others as you have done onto you, so I don't expect anything more than what I listed above.  I am pretty easy with packing, but I know some aren't.

I have a blog where I post custom cards - jblarghcards.blogspot.com - if you see something you like I could trade a custom card.  They are fan art and a novelty item, don't expect them to be PSA 10s.

This applies to all cards but especially the older pre-junk era cards. If the condition of your cards are less than nrmt or mint then make an effort to note this on your entries. I, like probably most other collectors on here, am not looking to trade my sharp cards that are in a very collectible condition (usually straight from pack and protected) for cards that are withered, worn, have dull corners, creases, marks etc. Be transparent. It's a frustrating process lately it seems. People care about condition, it shouldn't come as a surprise and it's very disappointing to not get in return what you're giving

I have a lot of cards up for sale/trade that I don't take the time to input into TCDB as we know it can be very time consuming. If you see something you want to trade for there's a good chance I have more from your wantlist so feel free to send offers. I will generally accept most offers as long as we can reach a fair (Beckett book value) deal

Fully transparent with card conditions etc.

Priorities:

1. Upper Deck (base set and Young Guns) 1998-99 to Present

2. Tim Hortons base sets

3. McDonald's base sets

4. General set building

Baseball

- Roger Clemens

- Mo Vaughn

- Rookie Cards for members of the 500 HR club

Hockey

- Blaine Lacher (Ranked #5 on TCDb)

- Ray Bourque (Ranked #42 on TCDb)

- Rookie Cards for members of the 500 Goal club

CFL

- Brandon Banks (Top-Ranked #1 on TCDb)

- Hamilton Tiger-Cats (Ranked #4 on TCDb)

Current Set Builds

- 2021 Topps Baseball (Series 2)

- 2013 Topps Chrome Football

- 1991 Upper Deck Football (Low)

Even though I don't see Becket as my bible, I do want the trade value for both parties to be in the same ballpark.

A very minor ding in a corner is not a deal braker for me. I will let you know of anything greater than a very minor ding in the card you will be receiving. I would appreciate the same in return.

If you know of any other sites like this, please let me know.

thanks

Until the end of June, I will be slow to answer to offers. It's my first full year of teaching in High school with 3 differents courses to give, so i won't have a lot of time for cards. Sorry

Update 4/06/22

First of all I only have football cards and baseball for trade right now. Send me your trade offers. I respond to all. Also willing to buy cards in bulk for trading purposes. Teams i collect are 49er's, and Braves. Especially from the years 1987 and backwards with a few 90's mixed in. Also 2000 - forward.

Main goal right now is 2022 team sets for the above teams.

Players with my last name. Snow

Rockies, Redskins, Bruins and Sacramento Kings

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Just to make my life alot easier, I am going to be only Shipping on Thursday's going forward. TY for your Understanding

My 11 yr old son (Now 16) has got my passion back, looking for pretty much everything and have many duplicates that I hope you can use. Check back often as I buy and trade a lot. I am not opposed to any "FAIR" trade.

I have mostly hockey - I love to trade for inserts. Adding cards daily as it takes lots of time to add everything. I do not mind trading 100 cards for 1 card if it's the same value and vice versa

I use beckett to compare prices not TCDB - if you are happy with that, let's trade by all means

Cards are as good as they can be but the 90's can have slight minor faults as there have been a lot of handling lets face it. If you are unhappy with the cards, we can always figure out something - ae. returns and paying the return postage...

***UPDATE*** 

***NEW CARDS ADDED TO MY EBAY ACCOUNT - LINK BELOW!***

*** I ONLY TRADE WITHIN CANADA AND THE U.S.A.! ****

THANKS!

----------------------------------------------------------------------

HELLO EVERYONE!

WELCOME TO MY NECK OF THE WOODS!

First off I have to get this out there...  I am willing to trade, but life does get in the way sometimes and that does interfere with my fun, and stress relief of collecting. Please understand this, so if I don't respond right away, it doesn't mean I haven't seen your proposal.  I have a few that are not understanding this so if I feel that it continues I will turn off my Trade/Sale List.   

Please keep trades a max of 12 cards or less and I do PWE. 

IF YOU ARE WANTING TO DO A BIG TRADE PLEASE MESSAGE ME BEFORE PROPOSING ONE!  

Plus, I like to check to make sure I have the cards you are looking for before accepting trades.  Yes the site states I have it but I like to double check as I am finding errors in my list. 

Anyhow, hope to here from ya! 

"ULTIMATE END GAME OF MY COLLECTING!"

• 1966-1967 TOPPS HOCKEY (CDN VERSION)

(At this time I do not have card #35 - Bobby Orr - RC. If you are an individual or a store and have it for sale or willing to trade please PM me and we can try and make a deal.)

• If you see something you need or want give me a shout.  I always look at a trade to make things work, even if I don't have it on my want list, which keeps changing!
• At the same time I am willing to help out fellow collectors to complete their collections and look for cards they can't find!  So if I don't have it, I will try and find it for you.
• For collectors that don't like trading and would rather buy, all cards on my Trade List are For Sale. Message me what you are looking at and we can go from there. 

I inherited a mass of junk wax era cards from our failed family business in the '90s and am looking to liquidate most of it. All four major sports, some others and hobbies. Close to 200k cards in all I think. Happy to help fill out collections for fair prices. Continuing to update the collection as I get it sorted. 

Newly back into the hobby and new to the trading world here. I 'm looking to complete a few base sets to fill some binders to appreciate the rich history of hockey. 

Main sets I'm collecting in order are 

- UD 2017-18 series 1 and 2

- 20-21 Parkhurst

UD Tim hortons sets

90-91 Pro Set

91-82 Pro set

UD  Years - 90-91, 91-92, 92-93

Score 90-91

Score 91-92

Long time goalie and have had to retire but and love to collect goalies.

Names I'm collecting in order are:

Martin Brodeur

Patrick Roy

Marc-Andre Fleury

Carey Price

Mike Smith

Felix Potvin

Curtis Joseph

Any Baseball Cards I'm not looking to keep, I just don't want baseball cards in return.

Anyone looking to try some case breaks, team buy or random teams. The link below will give you 10$ off to try it out. From Chamax cards

I have trades turned back on. The majority of my collection is still in storage but I have a handful of cards with me. If you would like to trade please feel free to message me and I would be more than happy to let you know what I have.

I am a diehard NY Rangers fan.

I am a collector of all thing's hockey, and I am always looking to expand my collection.

I started collecting in the early 80s and have recently started again.

I am mainly a set collector, but I do collect Gretzky and several other players as well as any other cards I find cool.

Always open for trade offers. If you don't see anything on my FS/FT list, I am open to checking if there are any cards on your Wantlist that I have (I still haven't added everything to the site).

I try and respond to offers within a day, sometimes it takes a little longer because I check the cards before I accept or counter. I never want to send any card out without the condition known.

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.)
