Any and all Braves cards from 1954 - Present (RIP Hank Aaron).

I have decided to scale back from trying to collect every Braves card ever made and concentrate on the sets I like. Lately it seems to be next to impossible to collect team sets since there are so many inserts, VAR, SP, and just all to many brands. Topps has once again turned collecting into $$$ for them by making so many different brands. The cost to collect is getting to be very expensive and making me question the hobby again. I still plan on trading and looking for the cards I am still missing.

Willing to trade just about anything for Braves cards......

I have been trying to do the impossible and collect the entire 2016 Topps and Update Sets. Any help would be appreciated!

BIO

Thank you for your interest in my profile! My name is Jack and I'm a hobbyist & collector in southern NJ. I live in the greater Atlantic City area and am a lifelong supporter of Philadelphia sports franchises. I stepped away from the hobby for almost 30 years until my oldest son reignited my interest in mid-2023.

___________

SPORTS Cards

My personal collection of sports cards & memorabilia is mainly baseball. Go Phillies! I have recently expanded into collecting for other sports, especially MMA, which is a sport I've followed since its inception. I dabble in just about everything else. I grew up at the peak of the junk wax production boom, but I collect across eras and am open to trading across eras, as well.

I'm a set-builder, through-and-through. Every single means a new set to build.

___________

NON-SPORTS Cards

It didn’t take long after returning to the hobby for me to realize that my passion is non-sports ​cards. I'm interested in everything, especially oddball stuff. I tend to gravitate toward sets that feature characters from Marvel, DC, Star Wars, Star Trek: TNG, or anything tied to pop culture, such as cards about music, movies, or television. Finally, I LOVE my GPK collection and I'm always looking to expand on it.

TRADING PHILOSOPHY

• Will consider trades of all shapes and sizes; no preference for PWE versus larger packages
• Will consider any purchase offers made in good faith (i.e., if the offer is reasonable)
• Will trade and ship to all 50 U.S. states, U.S. territories, U.S. military POs, and Canada with limited exceptions
• Will consider other international trades if responsibility for payment of shipping and/or tariffs is agreed upon in advance
• Packaging of cards prior to shipping is a major point of pride for me and I am confident my trading partners will recognize the value of these efforts
• By default, will ship domestically via PWE with 'Non-machinable' stamp and sufficient First Class Mail postage to cover the weight
• If weight/size restrictions prevent PWE as shipping method, I will typically go with USPS Ground Advantage as my second option and will send tracking number(s) via Transaction Manager
• Will happily send using other methods or services upon request, especially for high-value items; prior agreement on this point must be established before either party sends out their leg of the trade, else the above, default methods will take precedence
• Communication is the key; please accept/decline proposals in a timely manner, convey information about delays or returned packages, or just tell me that life is getting in the way and you need a few days
• If you decide to decline a proposal or reject a counteroffer, I promise that I won't take it as a personal affront — however, I do greatly appreciate a basic rationale, so I can adjust future offers, as necessary

***REMINDER***

PLEASE LEAVE FEEDBACK FOR EACH AND ALL OF OUR TRADE(S)

FEEDBACK FROM PAST TRADES IS THE MOST IMPORTANT DATA POINT THAT OTHER USERS HAVE AVAILABLE WHEN DECIDING WHETHER THEY CAN ESTABLISH A TRUST RELATIONSHIP WITH A POTENTIAL TRADING PARTNER — PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO SHARE YOUR EXPERIENCES WITH THE TCDB COMMUNITY

Primarily I chase parallel sets with my most ambitious project being the 2006 Topps Finest White Frame Refractors and XFractors. Individually,

Trading temporarily turned off until I can update me cards.....sold a lot on eBay and neglected to make the necessary adjustments here.

Always looking for a good trade. Let me know if I have anything on your Want list.
