*** I just added many 1991 Topps Desert Shield to my FS/T and want list.  This is a new set build and I prefer to trade dupes for needs in the same set.  If you offer regular base cards of almost anything else then I am likely to decline.  Thank you for your interest! *** 

Hello!  I bought my first packs in 1973 and found a card of my favorite player Mickey Lolich.  I was hooked and started building sets each summer.  Took a few years off now and then but always found my way back.

PC baseball set builds I'm enjoying right now:

• 1991 Topps Desert Shield  368/792   46%
• 1959 Topps  555/572   97%
• 1960 Topps  531/572   92%
• 1962 Topps  452/598   75%
• 1965 Topps   348/598   58%
• 1970 Kellogg's  70/75   93%
• 1971 Kellogg's  54/75   72%
• 1972 Kellogg's ATG  12/15   80%
• 1973 Topps Team Checklists  21/24   87%
• 1972/73 Topps Hockey   174/176    98%
• Plus many more sets on my want list...

I love trading so please don't hesitate to initiate a transaction.  Not much of a seller, really prefer to trade.

Trading Guidelines:  1)  Looking for EX or better in 1966 and earlier, need NRMT or better in anything newer as these are likely upgrades.  2)  I'm open to trades of all size, from 1 card to 1,000+.  3)  The number of HOF/Superstars and key rookies should be fair, not looking to trade my HOFs for commons.  4)  I try to accurately identify variations but check with me if you seek a specific version of a card.  5)  Condition of cards:  1979 & newer are mostly NRMT, 1978 and earlier include childhood cards and vary in condition.  I am in the process of entering grades for all cards in these years.  Feel free to ask about specific cards.  I always pull cards before accepting a trade and will inform you of any condition exceptions.

🇨🇦 I Welcome trades from my friends in Canada 🇨🇦 

P.S., I still have the original Lolich card from the summer of '73 and that dupe is not for trade.

I am busy, busy, busy, but go ahead and send trade offers. I'll do my best to get back to you. Most of my traders are in storage, but they're accessible. If it's from 2020 or newer, I should have it with me.

** PWE trades work better at the moment, unless you've got something really special for me. **

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.

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.)
