Hello there! Welcome to my page. I enjoy collecting all sorts of things especially cards. I enjoy collecting because usually when I come up on a stack of cards they are all in dissarray and I get to order them neatly and at the same time search for the hidden treasures within. I'm more about the process than I am the cards themselves. So, once I get them all in order and I've done my research I like to put them in the hands of someone else who will appreciate them in a different way. So if you're that person, don't hesitate to send me an offer!

Currently my collection includes:

baseball, pokemon, yu-gi-oh!, dragonball Z, digimon, magic the gathering, and some other odds and ends. 

Most of my cards are in -excellent- condition but I will make a note and make sure any potential buyer is aware of any damage or excessive ware. Thanks for visiting my page! All the best!

- - I do not buy cards and I only trade with people in the United States Thank you for understanding

March '24 Update: Trading is turned back on. Woohoo!

Topps Baseball (flagship 1969-present) and now Topps Heritage Baseball 2018-present along with some oddball/food-issued cards. I'm also trying to complete my sets of older Topps football and baseball (1969-73) in NM condition (sorry for being a condition snob). Always happy to leave positive feedback.

I prefer to trade base cards for base cards and inserts for inserts. If my For Sale/Trade list has pre-1975 vintage or SPs or serial-#'s cards you want, I will trade them for pre-1975 vintage or SPs or low serial-#'s cards (mix or match) that I need, i.e. a pre-1975 vintage for SP or a SP for low SN or low SN for pre-1975 vintage, then offers will be happily be considered.

The bigger the trade, the better. :)

My Story 📖

     I got interested in sports cards in like the late 80s. I was already a huge football fan, growing up watching FSU (I lived outside of Jax, FL at the time). I then somehow zeroed in on collecting just Jerry Rice and Patrick Roy pretty quickly. I lived across the street from a mall and it had card shows all the time.

     My mom saw how much I enjoyed collecting and decided to join me. She was at all the card shows and shops with me after all. She collected Jordon (no idea why, she didnt even watch basketball), Nomo (cause she needed a Japanese pitcher), Mighty Ducks (cause she loved the movies), and Jax Jaguars (cause we lived near there). She has passed and most of her collection is listed For Trade/Sale.

     I got out of collecting in like 2001ish, adulting sucks. My passion has returned and I found this site! I'm looking forward to seeing the cards I add!

12/4/2023 - Updated my PC lists, so there will be a mass of Jackie Robinson, Roberto Clemente & Corbin Burnes cards available for sale/trade here soon.  As I mention below, my want list is quite narrow, so I am more than willing to sell cards if we don't match up for a trade.  

Came across tcdb.com towards the end of 2019, and I have now completed over 1,600 transactions, with over 24,000 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 7/24/2024):

NBA: Giannis (4), Dirk Nowitzki (4), and Tim Duncan (3).  

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

MLB: Robin Yount (7), Tony Gwynn (6), Hal Morris (4), Mark Grace (7), Pat Listach (2) and Mark Langston (2)

Golf: Rickie Fowler (2)  & Joel Dahmen (1)

WWE: Lita (2)

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)  

I keep up with the base Topps and Donruss baseball sets.

I also enjoy collecting oddball baseball sets.  My current focus is on the following:

• Starting Line Up cards (not the figures)
• Sponsored team sets like Police, Fire Safety, Kahn's, Coke, etc.
• Updating my Hostess box panel cards (individuals)

I am always looking for cards that I do not have of the following Hall of Famers.  Serial numbered cards less than 100 are not on my want list but I am still interested.

• Frank Thomas (White Sox only)
• Carlton Fisk (Red Sox or White Sox)
• Ernie Banks (Mr. Cub)

PLEASE READ

CARD CONDITION

I have removed all recent cards that are not NRMT or better from my inventory.  ExMt or better from 80's or earlier.  Anything less than ExMt will be specified and discussed before mailing.  In turn, I ask that you do not send me anything that does not meet these criteria. 

POSTAGE

I will send all cards in plain white envelope (PWE) unless agreed otherwise or if card values are high.  Mailing more than 18 cards may be split into separate envelopes.  I always buy postage at the post office and get a receipt so I have some kind of verification.

Single cards will go out in a toploader.  Multiple cards will go in a 9 pocket sheet, folded and placed between more rigid cardboard.  The goal is to keep it thin to keep it cheap and avoid package charges.

TRADING

I use Beckett pricing to even up trades.  If you look up prices on Ebay, Sportlots or COMC, sell your cards there.  

Collections I maintain, in no particular order:

• Teams
  • Cincinnati Reds
  • Clinton Lumberkings/Giants/Dodgers/Pilots
  • Army Black Knights (all sports)
• Players
  • Shawn Green
  • Buster Posey
  • Matt Mantei
  • Jeff Peterek
  • Ralf Mojsiejenko
  • Joique Bell
  • Dan LeFevour
  • Pat Tillman
  • Chadd Blasko
• Sets
  • Tobacco/Pre-war
    • Current project: 1909-12 T-51 Murad
  • Baseball
    • Current projects: 1988 Fleer and 1993 Upper Deck Fun Pack
  • NASCAR
    • Current projects: 2014 Panini Prizm, 2007 Traks (base complete) and 2012 Press Pass Ignite
  • Modern non-sport
    • Current project: 2014 Panini Country Music (base complete)
  • Vintage non-sport
    • Current project: 1962 Topps Civil War News
• Others
  • Any NASCAR
  • PSA-graded Hall of Famers (baseball primarily, but also football)
    • Any card of a member in the Hall of Fame, any condition - just graded by PSA
  • Any other pre-1965 graded baseball
    • Any condition, preferrably PSA; primarily looking for cheap, low-grade commons
  • Any other pre-1970 graded football
    • Any condition, preferrably PSA; primarily looking for cheap, low-grade commons

Any cards that I have that do not meet the above criteria will be removed from my collection. As of right now, I only sell on COMC (and I don't see that changing). I just don't have the time with my lifestyle (working 40-50 hours a week, plus coaching three baseball teams) to pull, package, and mail trades, or even mail my own sales. I do enjoy sending PIFs and typically check wantlists here before sending a box to COMC for consignment. If I'm looking for something specific and notice you have it FS/T, I may reach out to try and make an offer. I don't expect to receive any proposals, and would rather send someone a few cards from their wantlist and get nothing in return than try to hash out a deal.

I do have cards listed FS/T; they are available via COMC, listed in my "COMC" collection, and can be accessed by following the External Sales Link on those cards. I don't have them in my possession, so I can't do a trade with you. However, I want to see these cards go to people who really want them. If you see something you like, send me a message on here and let me know - the price will come down, and I'll even take a bit of a loss to get you cards for your collection. I keep my prices more in line with what is currently offered on COMC, but I'll certainly be wiling to negotiate, especially with a TCDB member, as these are typically higher than what these cards are truly worth, in my opinion.

Tony Gwynn 

Upper Deck Baseball Heros

I love to sell cards so if you see anything send me an offer.  It will help fuel my purchasing of cards I actually want.

As of 4/29/2024

1.  John Elway 3,082/12,861 # ranked #2 24%

2. Terrell Davis 1,274/6,385 ranked #2 20%

3. Shannon Sharpe 634/2,353 ranked #1 26.9%

4. Rod Smith 557/2,294 ranked #4 24.3%

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.)

Matt Williams (#1 TCDB)

Still in the long process of uploading my current collection of baseball cards.

New to the site since 1/25/23 after a 20-year break in collecting and have just completed 600 trades on 7/22/2024!

ALWAYS looking for 1998 Topps Tek Diffractors Patterns for card #44!

Most wanted items:

1987 The Bon Pocatello Giants Team Set

1990 Phoenix Baseball Magnetables #54 Matt Williams

1991 O-Pee-Chee - Pre-Production Sample Sheets #NNO

Collects baseball, football, and vintage basketball.

Unfortunately I am on hiatus for the time being and hope to be back trading soon. I can still trade but message me first with what you're wanting.

Walter Payton is my favorite player so I'll be interested in all things, Sweetness.

Sadly, I'm a Minnesota Vikings fan so not much to choose from. Justin Jefferson, Moss stuff and now Harrison Phillips. Twins too, mainly Buxton. 

I'm currently working on cards pertaining to my home state of Nebraska. Don't be surprised if a trade offer contains a bunch of obscure former Huskers. Looking for all cards of athletes/entertainers (no politicians) who were born here and moved away as a child (Wade Boggs) or lived in the state their entire life (Alex Gordon).

It's been a great year of trading so far. I will entertain all offers but will be more inclined to accept trades that consist of me sending out at least 12 cards.
