• Working on low to mid grade 1970 through 1972 complete Topps baseball sets, but I'll take any condition just to complete these sets. I'm focusing on these right now and I hope to trade as much for these as I can. I will buy if the price is right. I'm over halfway on 1970-1972 with HOF and High #'s remaining.

I've been very blessed in my trades and transactions here on TCDB. Thank you to all. I will trade vintage for modern and vice versa as long as there is roughly equal value felt on both sides. I am a set builder and collecter. I do not speculate on my cards for future value. I do this for fun, not for profit. I will sell, but only to build a small bank of money to use for buying cards I can't trade for. I've traded hundreds of cards each way and I've done many 1 for 1 trades, so no trade is too big or small for me.

In packaging, I use painter's tape ONLY. I try to use a photo mailer for small trades of about a dozen or less.  I use #10 PWE for trades up to about 2 dozen cards and maybe 2 PWE for 4 dozen.  After 50 cards, I typically will use a bubble mailer with tracking.  If it is 200 or more cards, they will likely be in a box well padded.

 I am looking to trade  for Phillies or anything on my want list.  I am adding new cards to my for trade list every day. I have my Phillies collection listed from 1887 to 2024

Mostly Topps baseball , O-Pee-Chee baseball 1971-1991, Kelloggs , Oddball 70's and 80's ,Topps Football 1971 to 2015 , 1971-1992 Topps Hockey , Topps Star Wars

Baseball, Football, Hockey, Basketball, Soccer and whatever else I think is cool.

I usually wait to ship on the weekends.  During the week I teach all day, then either work with sick kids online from 5-9pm or work at the farm with our horses.  PLEASE BE PATIENT!!!  It might take me several days to respond, I try my best to not "ghost" anyone.  

Current Top Priorities: I am neck-deep in a 2021 Bowman Draft Pittsburgh Pirates TEAM rainbow. Any help would be appreciated!! 

Due to shipping costs, I will no longer be shipping internationally unless my Canadian friends have a bunch of OPC trade matches.

#1. Pittsburgh Pirates (mostly team sets)

#2. Baseball Subsets: Ray Lankford PC, Keith Williams PC, Denny's Holograms, Topps Glossy Rookies, Topps All-Star Rookies, Topps Multi-Rookie cards from the 70's, Upper Deck Star Rookies and Prospects

#3. Football: Steelers, Topps Super Rookies

#4. Basketball: Upper Deck Rookie Standouts and Draft Picks, early Sky Box Draft Picks

#5. Hockey: Claude Loiselle PC

I am set set builder strictly with baseball any and all sets are wanted.

Due to the limit on how many cards that can be placed on the wantlist, if you don't see it in my collection then I want it. 

I DO NOT trade from my Collection unless there are two of the same card that you are needing.

As of right now My Trade list is turned off while I try and finally get organized 12/04/2023. 

Thanks,

Collecting: I collect Topps flagship baseball mostly working on my vintage sets now, Bowman base, Pro Debut, and Qypsy Queen. Depending on my cardboard addiction I will dabble in inserts and parallels but usually I just trade them away. Autos will ALWAYS take priority in trades with me and I will trade multiple cards for a single auto.

Shipping: I usually only ship once a week typically on Friday. All trades sent by me will arrive in a padded envelope with tracking. I'm totally fine with receiving PWE, though. Unfortunately I am forced to have to decline international trades as I've had too many cards either held in or damaged by Customs. Sorry about that, Blue Jays fans.

Purchasing: Maybe. 99.9% of my interactions here will be trades but I will buy autos or more expensive one-offs to finish a set if it's reasonable.
