Like so many, I got sucked back into collecting during the pandemic but I'm not going anywhere.  I am usually working on sets (slowly working to get them into here but have a google doc with all my builds).  My 13 year son collects Pokemon, Sony Michel, Tatum and Brown, Benintendi, and Tuukka Rask and David Pastrnak.  My daughter collects mascots and women athletes (especially soccer and basketball).

My biggest hobby accomplishment was collecting every Topps flagship gold cup rookie ever...from Willie McCovey to Wander Franco and everyone in between.

I pride myself on being an easy trader and easy seller most of the time.  If I have cards you want and you're not a jerk, we'll figure it out.

Find us on twitter at ccc_collects.

Happy Collecting

 

Things I need to add since being active here on tcdb:

- PWE is assumed so let's discuss if you think otherwise.

- When I send a trade proposal, I usually include the message "Thoughts?"  That is short for: Hi my name is Chris.  I would love to work out a trade that is good for both us.  If you don't see a match, no worries.  Thoughts? is just easier.

- If I withdraw a trade too quickly, feel free to send a proposal.  It's usual because I'm making a proposal with some of those cards (mine or what I've requested) and it's to keep things straight if I withdraw one.  I appreciate not everyone responds right away or even within a couple of days.  Fortunately, you're not all degenerates like me.

8/24/2023 - UPDATE: I've done quite a few sales following my prior note.  Thank you to all who sent proposals.  I am turning trading back on, but will definitely still consider selling to anyone who is interested.  Thank you!! 

 

Came across tcdb.com towards the end of 2019, and I have now completed over 1,400 transactions, with over 22,000 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 9/28/2023):

NBA: Giannis (5), Dirk Nowitzki (4), and Tim Duncan (2).  

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

MLB: Aaron Ashby (1), Roberto Clemente (1), Jackie Robinson (2), Robin Yount (8), Tony Gwynn (6), Hal Morris (3), Mark Grace (7), Ethan Small (1), Pat Listach (1), Corbin Burnes (1) and Mark Langston (1)

WWE: Lita (4)

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)

Cal Ripken, Jr. cards are my main focus. I also collect Fred Lynn And Baltimore Orioles cards. I am currently ranked on TCDB as # 10 for Ripken, # 5 for Orioles, and # 3 for Fred Lynn.

I am currently looking for Baltimore Orioles Pocket Schedules.

I am also actively searching for the Holiday Inn room key cards of Cal Ripken that parallel the 2007 Upper Deck Holiday Inn Ripken set.

Recently went through all 14,000+ Baseball, Football, and Basketball cards. They sat untouched either in original set boxes or 9 card plastic sleeves for over 20 years. I may want to complete some baseball sets. Mainly looking to sell as my hobbies have changed though I am open to trades to complete some sets.

I have complete sets for sale.

1978 Looking for Bump Wills var card.

Starting on Topps Baseball 1977 as of 11/9/22. As of 02/18/23 the set is complete and I am just looking for upgrades about 9 cards left.

My 1966, 1968, 1969 Topps cards are in great shape! See my Feedback! Don't lowball! I will trade for good value in return. $$ talks too!

Complete sets for sale

I'm only doing trades on pre 1980 stuff right now! My newer stuff is just a damn mess and all over the place!

I collect lower grade vintage baseball 1880s-1984 and other weird oddball stuff. Also collect some vintage basketball, football, wrestling, drag racing, monster, horror, 60& 70s &some 80s TV & movies. Not really interested in post 1984 stuff other than 93,94 Finest, 96 Crome, oddball & 90s baseball inserts

I actually trade for ROUGH, BEAT-UP, DRAWN ON cards. If you have ANY old beat-up HOF/Stars/Negro League don't be afraid to offer em in trade or I might even buy em. For beater COMMONS I usually like 69 or older. The older the better.

I collect all years Chicago Cubs 1880s-current, but have most of it! Not too keen on the newer stuff unless it's Rizzo, Sandberg, Sosa, Dawson or something odd.

If you see something you want, even in my collection! feel free to make an offer. Most everything I have is for sale or trade. I love to trade but most of my 1980+ is all mixed up unless it's a HOF/Star player and even then...

 I've had a great experience trading so far! What a great site! I can provide pics for any cards you are interested in. I try to grade but have never gotten cards graded, so I'm no expert. If it's an older card doesn't have a grade it is probably at least G/VG or thereabouts. I try to tag all damage and grade a little low.

I'll always try to throw in an extra card from your wantlist too, If I can't find anything you'll get something fun.

Feel free to make any offer. I DO like to make the trade worth the stamp, envelope & time = $5 or more.

Thanks!

I'm back to accepting trades!  Thanks!  I apologize in advance if I am slow to respond or to ship cards.  I usually pull and pack cards on the weekend, which is when I have the most time to spend on my collection.  

I'm open to selling or trading any card in my collection, unless it breaks up a set.  If you see a card you're interested in, and it isn't marked as "for sale or trade", send me a message.  I'm sure we can work something out.

First and foremost, I'm a Set Builder - I'm currently working on sets from the 80's through to current releases.  

PC - O's - Cal Ripken, Brooks Robinson, Trey Mancini, Cedric Mullins, Ryan Mountcastle, Adley Rutschman, Heston Kjerstad, Jackson Holliday... (Just to name a few....  so many prospects coming up, I collect all of them too!!!)

If I have something you would like to trade for, reaching out to me via Twitter might be the fastest way to start. We can bring it back here just to keep track of it, if you would like. I see messages quicker on Twitter than I do here...sorry🤷‍♂️

If you need a vouch or two, you can get them via Twitter also.😉

1968 Topps Baseball 

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.

Zach and Porter here!  Father and son combining junk wax with a new age of collecting.  Base cards still matter and so does the love of the hobby.  We love the White Sox & Chicago Bears.  We operate on a budget so we try to focus on PWE trades to maximize our monthly trade allowance.  With that said we stick to trading in the US.  Thank you for understanding

Porter and I recently started our own YouTube channel in order to share our love for collecting.  Please watch and subscribe here Zach and Porter 

Porter and I were recently featured on John Newman's "Sports Card Nation Podcast"  We've been long time fans of John, he is a great ambassador of the hobby - https://www.sportscardnationpodcast.com/ep193-zach-porter-byrne/

Porter and I were recently featured in "Sports Collectors Digest” thanks to John Newman. You can read the article here.  https://sportscollectorsdigest.com/news/collectors-zach-porter-byrne-hobby-journey-sports-card-nation-john-newman

Porter is trying to collect the following sets:

2020 Topps Base Set, 2021 Topps Heritage and 2023 Topps Series 2.

Current White Sox player cards. (Eloy, TA, Yoan, Luis Robert, Vaughn, Liam, Yaz, etc)  Porter loves anyone who played for the White Sox or Bears.

Jackie Robinson reprints (his idol)  Porter loves collecting reprints of the All-Time Greats!  Pee Wee, Duke, Stan, Honus, etc!

Jim Abbott (he fell in love with Jim's inspirational story)

Shoei Ohtani - what kid doesn't love this guy?!?

Players who turned into announcers and players featured in the Heisman House commercials.

Troy Polamalu, Randy Moss, Calvin Johnson, Tony Gonzalez, Yadi, Trout, Terry Bradshaw, Bryce Harper, Tatis Jr., Justin Tucker, Tony Romo, Arenado, Goldschmidt, St. Louis Cardinals, Pittsburgh Steelers Manny Sanguillen and many more.

I am trying to collect:

Frank Thomas, Carlton Fisk, Bo Jackson, Robin Ventura, and other JWE stars like Rickey Henderson, Harold Baines, Ozzie Guillen, Jose Canseco, Eric Davis, Will Clark, Albert Belle, Eric Davis, etc...I also love collecting reprints of Negro League Stars, specifically Satch, Gibson, and Papa Bell.  

I PC the Chicago Bears with a focus on members of the 1985 Bears picking up cards spanning their careers.  I have a few other Football Favorites like Larry Allen, Deion, Rice, Barry Sanders, Lott, Greg Lloyd, James Harrison, Devin Hester, Derrick Thomas, Lawrence Taylor, Christian Okoye, Julius Peppers and other random stars from the past.

I like old Bulls players and other stars from the 90's.  Shawn Kemp, Penny Hardaway, Gary Payton, Larry Johnson, David Robinson, and many more....
