Gary Carter

Currently #3 on Gary Carter Master Set - PSA Set Registry

Master sets from 1991-2015; team-issued postcards and photos, pocket schedules; New York Mets items.  I love hearing from people, but most of the messages I get are offers to buy cards (that I don't own) that I've scanned over the years.  My advice would be to try eBay, sportslots.com, or COMC.com.  

1/24/23: Due to a busy life, I am unable to entertain trades at this time. 

I collect all types of hockey cards, but am really into cards from food or drink, cards only released in certain areas, promos, and SGAs.

The Pittsburgh Penguins are my favorite team.

I PC Kris Letang, Casey DeSmith, Jacques Plante, Roy Worters, Hobey Baker (Super Collector), Brad Marchand and anything that catches my eye.

The majority of my cards are available for sale or trade. Just send a message or trade request and I'll get back to you. My main PC players may not be for trade, as dupes get sent to FS/FT automatically and having one main collection is the best way to track all that I have. 

Upper Deck epack name is the same as here.

Je parle un peu francais. 

I deal with some health issues and I'm not always the best at responding to messages and getting slower pulling cards for trades. If you reach out and don't hear from me it's nothing personal. I'll be taking some time off from trading to put my trades and purchases into their final resting place. If you think we have a large trade that you don't mind waiting a day or two longer than usual send me a note what you are thinking about and i'll try to get back to you.

Tim Raines, Gary Carter, and Vladimir Guerrero (Sr!) on any team.

Also looking for Expos/Nationals, and OPC baseball.If you do a trade match with me and it looks like we have no matches, I am also glad to add Nationals' cards that I don't have so feel free to reach out anyway. I just haven't added many of them to my wantlist as they are not a priority for the most part.

I am also not looking for a fair trade really either so if it seems a little lopsided in your favor that's ok with me. A little lopsided...

Goal Progress for 2024 (updated April 3, 2024)

1) finish off two more OPC base sets and two OPC insert sets

✔2) get at least two more players over 50% of all wanted cards.

-Cliff Floyd made it over 50% in February.

-Wil Cordero made it over 50% in March

3) Finish off all base Expo cards for Stadium Club, Donruss, Collector's Choice, Leaf and SP (Total of 69 cards at start of year) Only 60 left now...

4) Add ten of the 50th Anniversary of Expos from 2019 Archives including the five parallels/autos I am collecting (to reach 40 out of 175).

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.

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.)
