I trade cards to build baseball, hockey and some miscellaneous sports / non-sport sets. I also PC Felipe Alou, Derek Aucoin, Steve Begin, Jennifer Botterill, Kevin Dineen, Laurent Duvernay-Tardif, Bob Kudelski, Manon Rheaume and P.J. Stock as well. I do not buy cards. I also have a sweet spot for oddball / food issue / regional sets. New cards are regularly added to my FT/S list and all the cards I list here are NRMT or EX unless specified and I expect the same of you.

I don't collect micro-variations (dots, stars, copyright marks, holograms, printing plate codes...), they're not fun to search and I dislike the incessant frequency with which new ones are added. Seriously, what's the point if you gotta need to use a magnifier glass to check out if there's a dot on the back of a 1991 Fleer? However, I do all my best to check all my cards and to keep my lists up to date, but please ask me first, if micro-variations matter to you. The site really needs some way of opting out of micro-variations (just a default / any var. / unverified option for each card).

Besides helping to complete our collections one step closer each time, the opportunity would be nice to have traded with all the states, provinces and territories of North America. On this site only, I traded with members in 46 states, D.C., 9 provinces, N.W.T. and overseas. I can't wait to have a trade in Alaska, Delaware, North Dakota, Wyoming, Manitoba, Nunavut and Yukon. However, if you don't live in the above jurisdictions, you're still more than welcome to trade with me. No trade to Russia, Belarus and Iran.

I'm an easy going, helpful and patient guy, but here's now my turn to announce that my NO TRADE LIST is growing due to an increased lack of civility on the forums and the full site. If (1) you nitpick and/or always have an opinion on anything and/or act like you own the site and you're not Admin or (2) you do not respond to counters or decline without expressing a reason or don't PM me to ask more time after several days of wait or (3) you send me ridiculous off-balanced offers or (4) you accept the trade and you can't mail your cards in a timely manner or you send me loose or severly damaged cards or (5) have a brand new (empty) account without info / feedback and ask for valuable cards or (6) you clearly didn't read my profile (ask first, at least) and ask me to buy your cards, then chances are that you just won a place on my NO TRADE LIST regardless of how much I may want what you have.

I am fine with shipping cards in single or multiple PWEs, if the cards are properly packaged. Also, I don't mind large or small transactions, but I currently prefer trades with 10 to 20 cards going each way or at least that the cards carry more value than the postage. I usually ship the same or the next business day. Just remember that Canada Post doesn't pick up or deliver on Saturday and Sunday.

International shipping is very easy, but it costs more for BOTH traders (not just from the U.S.). Here are some tips to save on shipping costs to Canada: use PWEs (Plain White Envelopes) and avoid bubble envelopes, plastic boxes and big stacks of cards. Ship as flat as you can (cut 9 pocket pages in 3 rows and insert 4-5 cards in each pocket). The more it looks like a greeting card or documents mailed in a regular letter instead of a package, the more it tends to be cheaper to ship. Current U.S. to Canada first class postage rate (up to 2 oz) is $1.40 and if non-machinable, $1.79. If you don't have Global Forever stamps handy, three regular Forever stamps work as well. There's also no need to pay $14.85 for shipping with international tracking, because it is just too expensive, it will be way slower to arrive and Canada Post won't track your postal item anyway. Overall, postal service tends to be slower in Canada and at times a bit harder to predict, but it is as reliable as in the U. S.. Lastly, no cross-border shipping by Fedex or UPS: they charge $40.00+ custom brokerage on each and every package they handle no matter if it is duty free or not.

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

I am currently just shipping via PWE transactions of 3 ounces or less to limit my exposure/costs. Multiple PWE transactions will be acomodated,if applicable. I am turning off trading for a little while to organize my cards for a better trading experience in the near future-Thanks to everyone for your trades-I love this site and look forward to more trades soon.

 (JUNE 14/2023) 

Had to turn off trading for a while. I Will be back in the fall.

 

 

Just trying to finish up some sets.

I'm downgrading my collection significantly at the moment.

Just like many of you, my for sale/trade list seems to be at about 98% accurate but I will try to accommodate any trades that are offered.

Please feel free to add more to your side of the trade as I am looking at clearing some things out right now.

I like to do trades at 108 cards as it fits perfectly into 4 binder sleeves and then into a bubble mailer for a good shipping price.

Thank you to all who have traded with me so far, Its been fun.

Hi folks,

I primarily collect cards of Pittsburgh Penguins players. There are plenty of cards I'd like that I don't yet have on my wantlist. 

Favourite players:

Mario Lemieux

Alex Kovalev

Paul Kariya

Matt Cullen

I'm not super-concerned with getting equal monetary value for my cards, I'm just looking to build my collection, mostly with Penguins cards.

I'll be adding more cards for trade over the coming weeks.

After a hiatus of more than 25 years in baseball card collecting, I got back into the hobby during the COVID lockdown with a renewed interest. I have picked up my collection where I last paused, back in 1994, and actively looking to fill the few gaps in the 1969-1994 years, mainly for Montreal Expos cards, as well as pick up all the new issues since then, complementing that with a few extra players in their pre or post Expos teams.

I have diven in the new Topps products, allowing myself the costly leasure of ripping open packs. And, although I am aiming to complete the flagship sets (Opening Day, Series 1, Series 2, Update & Holiday), my preference lies in the Archive and Heritage series, where I get the pleasure of looking at classic card designs of recent players and HoF'ers, but benefiting from the precision printing and slitting of high-end equipment.  

Current set builds:

  • Topps Archives 2020 (323 / 324), 2021 (300 / 300), 2022 (337 / 380)
  • Topps Opening Day 2018 (131 / 200), 2019 (122 / 200)
  • Topps Heritage 2019 (723 / 725, or 761 / 895), 2020 (683 / 725, or 714 / 899), 2021 (613 / 725, or 614 / 908)
  • Topps Heritage Chrome Purple Refractors 2020 (137 / 150)
  • Topps Holiday 2017 (199 / 200), missing #107, 2019 (277 / 300), 2020 (288 / 300), 2021 (287 / 317), 2022 (199 / 300)
  • Topps Update 2021 (278 / 330)

Sets being completed dating before hiatus

All-Cards Challenge:

Don't hesitate to contact me if you are looking to offload Expos cards, or even enquire if I have doubles of those players, as I'd be really happy to help you out as well. ;-)

Cheers & Happy collecting!
