Stopped building sets in 09 and now have stopped chasing SFGiants/49ers in 2019. But still have lots of wants. Due to a generous divorce court had to return to work, so trading is still important to me but now pulling and mailing can only be done on tuesday and wednesday

Hello,  If you've stumbled on to my profile somehow, thanks for lookin' around!  I became a member of TCDb in 2022, although I have been a collector for over forty years.  I'm looking mostly to trade, but am not opposed to purchasing cards or selling cards as needed.  I'm not looking to get rich on this, just looking to tie off loose ends in my collection as well as help other fellow collectors out as I can.  Currently I have around 100 sets from 1982-2023 that I've got started that I'm going to try to finish.

I did make the decision that I'm not going to start any sets from 2024 forward, unless they're started for me (via a gift or something like that).  My focus is going to be completing the sets I have started.

My collection is eclectic...  I'm mostly a set builder and autograph hound, though there are some players that I will attempt to collect as well.  I have been TTMing autographs through the mail since the 1990's, and for about the last 13 years I've been creating my own customs to send out for signatures. 

My current sets I'm prioritizing on finishing are:

• 1992 Classic Pro Line Portraits Rookie Gold:  Need 1
• 2013 Topps Baseball Update Walmart Blue Parallel:  Need 2

I also have an unopened box of 1992 Fleer Ultra Series II Baseball that I'd be willing to trade.  Looking for a box of one of the following in return:

• 1988 Score Baseball
• 1990 Topps Baseball
• 1993 Topps Series II Baseball
• 1991 Donruss Series II Baseball

Teams:  Chicago Cubs, Chicago Bears, Chicago Blackhawks, & any alternative football leagues (XFL / USFL / AFL / WLAF / IFL) 

Players: 

(Baseball) Scott Spiezio, Kelly Dransfeldt, Billy Petrick, Zach Petrick, Matt Walker, Andy Peters, Jacob Goebbert, Will Clark, Ryne Sandberg, Cal Ripken, Jr. 

(Football):  Desmond Clark, Jeff Query, Mike Alstott, Brett Favre.

My want lists are kept up to date as much as possible on my website for now, although I will also use TCDb for my set lists as much as I can.  I'm hoping to transfer over to TCDb in time.  As of July 2023, the majority of my needs are transferred over, some just aren't want listed.  As I finish sets, I'll put others on my want list.

I hope to make some good friendships in the hobby & work towards getting my cards for sale/trade up on here as I can.

Any questions / comments, feel free to reach out!

As of 5/3/2024:

#1 Scott Spiezio Collector on TCDb

#1 Kelly Dransfeldt Collector on TCDb

#1 Billy Petrick Collector on TCDb

#1 Zach Petrick Collector on TCDb

5 cards incoming is a minimum for trades, please! (Unless it's a higher-value card)

I am prioritizing my collecting on Nebraska Cornhuskers currently, so any trades for those former players are preferred.

I care about VARs/variations/parallels. If it's documented that way on TCDb, that's the one I'm looking for! Please take a little time to confirm your cards being offered are correctly documented. Easy traps that everyone falls into are 1990s ProCards/CMC cardbacks and football hobby base versus retail base.

Check out the results of the Ukraine trip here!

Declining trade offers with no message is of little use to the person initiating the trade, show some effort to those putting together trade offers and take a few seconds to note why the trade doesn't work in its current state. A few moments to communicate can lead to a deal getting done!

On the flip side, please stop sending me 1-4 card trades showing that you didn't read/ignored my top message in bold, respect for time goes both ways!

About Me:
KC Royals and Nebraska Cornhuskers Team Collector, and Alex Gordon/Jermaine Dye Super Collector. TCDb enthusiast!

White Sox. More specifically, Paul Konerko, Frank Thomas, and Mark Buehrle, but all White Sox in general.

I tried really hard to make sure that my Junk Wax Era Donruss variations are correct. I REALLY tried... I hate them. With an extreme prejudice. Like, lighter to the box hate... That being said, I will execute due diligence when one is requested in a trade. Sometimes, I may have to counter without that variation, or ask if it matters. My brain itches when I look at them. Just know that I will double check and that, sometimes, I don't have them correct. Thanks!

Also, I am only Trading, not Buying or Selling. Things get messy with money. And, I don't want "Homework." Meaning, if you want to trade, send a trade. Please don't send me messages asking me to send you a trade. I am more than happy to counter if I think it isn't fair, etc. Thanks!

Please be patient with me, as I usually don't get to look at a trade proposal for a couple of days, at least. I'm not ignoring, I just don't live on my computer. I am always interested in trading, but I work overnights and have three kids. That obviously comes first. Also, I only will be making Post Office trips on Mondays and Fridays. I always use PWE as a default, unless otherwise requested. Thank you for understanding.

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 1,500 transactions, with over 23,000 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 2/9/2024):

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

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

MLB: Robin Yount (7), Tony Gwynn (6), Hal Morris (3), Mark Grace (7), Pat Listach (1) and Mark Langston (1)

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

WWE: Lita (3)

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)  

Send offers! For every 20-30 offers I send out, I get about one coming my way.

I'm a baseball only guy, but lately my wants are getting harder and harder to find, so I'm trading for Michael Jordan cards when trade partners don't have 90s baseball inserts I need. 

If I have cards on your wantlist and you don't have anything on mine, I will sell. It'd be nice to occasionally replenish all the funds I'm spending on stamps!

I guess it's time that I put a real profile description on here, as I've been around for a couple of years and am starting to ramp up my trading.

I am a baseball only collector. I owned a card store for about 9 years in the heyday of the junk era boom (1989-1998). When I closed it, I put the cards in storage for about 8 years, not touching them until roughly 2006.

 I decided in 2020 to narrow my collecting focus to only two areas:

1990's baseball insert and promotional sets.  I have completed about 75 percent of all insert sets made in the 90s!

AND:

1980's oddball sets if they were produced by one of the big five (Topps, Donruss, Fleer, Score and Upper Deck) Here's all I need from that era:

Some 1988, 1989 and 1990 Topps Stickers (1981 through 1987 complete)

Some 1983 Fleer Star Stickers (all other years complete)

A full set of 1980 Topps White Back Supers (all other years complete)

A full set of 1980 and 1981 Fleer Laughlin Team Logo stickers

1984 Fleer Update Gooden and Clemens to finish the complete run of 1984-1991 Fleer Update sets

A complete set of 1981 Topps Scratch-offs

Complete sets of 1983-1989 OPeeChee Stickers (have 1982)

All of the Topps Team Checklists from 1980-1982 (not the pack pulled ones, the ones that were printed on thinner cardboard sheets)

1970-1976 Kellogg's sets (I have completed 1977 through 1983. I might give up on this quest as these don't meet my criteria of being made by one of the big five, and finding older ones uncracked is hard and expensive.

A fair number of 1982 Fleer stamps (1983 is done)

Most of the 1989 and 1990 KMart blister pack Topps Batting Leaders

That's it for 1980's oddball needs

I have tens of thousands of star cards from football, basketball and baseball not listed in my FS/FT yet, but will be working on that as time allows. If you see that I have cards on my wantlist that you have, but don't see anything on your wantlist that I have, send me a message and I bet I can round up some trade bait while I'm working on inputting them.

Hey everybody, Jeremy here.

Big time Husker fan as I've grown up and lived in Nebraska my entire life. I'm an alum and will cheer for any sport.

Been a card collector since a wee child. Took a 15 year hiatus in college and post-college and getting back into it collecting my childhood favorites. Boy have things changed! I'll dabble in some new cards, thus, I have newer cards for trade as well.

My goal: is to help you complete your sets and/or collect your favorite players or teams. I only have 1-5% of my collection logged into TCDB thus far, so most likely have many more in your want list then what appears. I'm very open and actually prefer trading 100-400 cards for 5-15 cards in return. I understand a number of my want list includes potentially "higher" priced cards ($1-$20+), so if I need to trade 1:10 or 1:20 if you're open to that, I am as well and will ship accordingly. As stated above, I love helping others complete sets as I have a TON of doubles and commons.

I will always send PWE, unless the trade is over 30+ cards, then use a padded envelope.

I enjoy collecting: (ranking week of 4/22 ---> 5/6)
* Shaquille O'Neal (#24 ---> #22) (765 Cards | 4.6% Complete)
* Ken Griffey Jr. (#42 ---> #42) (1,317 Cards | 4.2% Complete)
* Dan Marino (#15 ---> #15) (969 Cards | 5.0% Complete)
* Kobe Bryant (#29 ---> #27) (693 Cards | 1.5% Complete)
* Michael Jordan (#92 ---> #92) (615 Cards | 3.8% Complete)
* Lebron James (#22 ---> #23) (156 Cards | 0.9% Complete)
* Alex Rodriguez (#33 ---> #33) (445 Cards | 1.7% Complete)
* Ricky Williams (#7 ---> #7) (252 Cards | 5.1% Complete)

Always open to fair offers and selling any cards in my FS/FT list, as I have a BUNCH of cards I'm looking to purge as well. As I continue to get back into it, I may grow my wants/needs in completing sets, etc. I accept cards in all conditions, they don't have to be perfect.

Appreciate all considerations and will try to communicate if a card isn't in "gem mint" condition as well, as I do have some that aren't, as I actually traded cards waaaayyyyy before TCDB came along!

I do have a SportsLots Page for selling as well: https://www.sportlots.com/dealers/?dealer=Jmo34353

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

Baltimore Orioles cards of all stripes and flavors! 

Sub-collections include:

• Cards featuring The Bird, the Orioles' mascot
• Cards featuring Oriole Park at Camden Yards or Baltimore's Memorial Stadium
• Cards or Stickers focusing on the Orioles logo
• Canadian-produced (or Japanese, Venezuelan, British...) cards of the Orioles
• Cards produced by the Star Company featuring Orioles players
• Weird unlicensed Orioles cards from the junk wax era
• Topps Opening Day cards featuring Orioles players

I'm good with PWE trading. Big or small trades can both be rewarding. I'll always aim to make sure it's an even trade where everyone is happy! 

At the end of the day, all of this should be FUN. 

Most of my trades are via pwe and I am usually looking to make it worth the postage.  Canadian trades work as well, but trying to keep my outgoing packages under 3oz.

1991 Topps Glow and Non-Glow Cards: I listed my extras, but there is not a distinction between Glow and Non Glow cards.  I do have my cards sorted by Glow vs. Non Glow in case you are working on a master set.  Let me know.

I have many Upper Deck Sheets and Hoops Team Night Sheets.  These are large items and cost $4.00-$5.00 to mail the first sheet within the US.  Please keep that in mind when making trade offers for these.

My past collecting focused on Team Issued sets, Stadium Giveaway and regional sponsored sets such as police, Smokey Bear, Mother's Cookies, etc.. from all sports, but a focus on baseball. I am working on a list of sets that I have for trade which will include Police Dodgers, Police Brewers, Pepsi Tigers, Jimmy Dean Rookies, etc..  I will trade these for standard issue sets from 80's to current that I don't have.  

I grew up near Anaheim Stadium and was a big Angel fan and collected Tim Salmon Cards.  Currently Ranked as #1 Tim Salmon Collector and #1 Happy Star Collector.

If you collect Kellogg's cards from 1972, 1974, 1976, 1977 and 1979 and have the same to trade in Nrmt-Mint without out cracks, please let me know.

• One of each Topps Cubs card ever produced, starting with base from 77-present - I've got a LONG way to go;-)

IN TRADES: I prefer to trade my dupes for cards I need from the same set or within a few years each way, but I do make trades all the time that violate that preference. Generally speaking, my cards are in pack fresh condition. I pack and ship carefully, and expect that we all do in this community. If a particular card of mine is NOT in pack fresh condition, I try very hard to note that with a condition indicator, and when possible, a note about what the defect(s) is(are). In these cases, comparable condition in return is of course acceptable. When making trades without those exceptions, I am looking for cards in the following conditions.

• Pre 1975 - Probably would be ok with VG. Dinged corners acceptable, but not rips, tears, completely rounded corners, creases, or significant wax/gum stains. Centering no worse than 85/15.
• 1975-1981 - OK with EX or better. No rounded corners, No creases, No gum/wax stains, no worse than 75/25 centering.
• 1982-1991 - Has to be at least EX-MT. Centering 80/20 minimum.
• 1992-present - Looking for NrMt or better. 

I'm aware that we all judge our cards a bit differently, but I subscribe to the general notion that a card's "grade" should be based on the entire package, e.g. a 75/25 off center card could have scalpel sharp corners and great color, so might suffice as better than the off-center defect would hurt it. I own fewer than 10 slabbed/graded cards, so more interested in the card's aesthetic appeal than the grade it might receive.

Finally, trade value does not have to be even to the penny. I'd like to move my cards in which I am less interested into the hands of fellow collectors who would value tham more than I do, and I hope that those I trade with feel the same. As much as my heart wants Beckett to be the guide it was when I grew up in the early 80s, I tend to use sold comps from the prior 90 days on eBay where those comps exist to come up with value when necessary, but when trading commons, 1 for 1 generally works for me. 

This is a hobby, and I am in it for the joy of collecting. It doesn't mean I wouldn't take some cash for a card that someone else will love more than I do, but "breaking even" is the ideal. When in doubt, shoot me a message and let's see what we can work out.

Thanks!

Baseball collector only

I'm open to trade for any cards I don't have in my collection if there are cards on my for sale/trade list that you want. Just shoot me a message or offer and we can try and work something out.

If you are a variation collector in a trade, please let me know and I will verify the cards are the variations that you want.
