Hi there, 

I have close to 50,000 sports and non-sports cards to put into the site.  Adding cards each week is like having a full time job.  Looks like a great place to find the missing cards from different card sets.  I started collecting comic cards and football cards when I was a teenager.  My Dad collected Movie, TV show, and Sports cards when he was younger, so I now have a lot of different card sets I'm looking to complete.  

I collect all San Francisco 49er cards, Star Wars cards, Comic cards, and various Non Sports cards.  I have Individual collections of Steve Young, Jery Rice, Ronnie Lott, Barry Sanders, Randy Moss, Darth Vader, Wolverine, Spiderman, and Venom cards.  

I love the organization and inventory from collecting cards.  Collecting is like having a full time job.  

I'm open to mixed trades....Football for Baseball, vice versa, etc.  

I trade cards to build baseball, hockey and some miscellaneous sports / non-sport sets. I also PC Felipe Alou, Derek Aucoin, Steve Begin, Jennifer Botterill, Kevin Dineen, Laurent Duvernay-Tardif, Bob Kudelski, Manon Rheaume, Gabriela Sabatini and P.J. Stock as well. I do not buy cards. I also have a sweet spot for oddball / food issue / regional sets. New cards are regularly added to my FT/S list and all the cards I list here are NRMT or EX unless specified and I expect the same of you.

I don't collect micro-variations (dots, stars, copyright marks, holograms, printing plate codes...), they're not fun to search and I dislike the incessant frequency with which new ones are added. Seriously, what's the point if you gotta need to use a magnifier glass to check out if there's a dot on the back of a 1991 Fleer? However, I do all my best to check all my cards and to keep my lists up to date, but please ask me first, if micro-variations matter to you. The site really needs some way of opting out of micro-variations (just a default / any var. / unverified option for each card).

Besides helping to complete our collections one step closer each time, the opportunity would be nice to have traded with all the states, provinces and territories of North America. On this site only, I traded with members in 46 states, D.C., 9 provinces, N.W.T. and overseas. I can't wait to have a trade in Alaska, Delaware, North Dakota, Wyoming, Manitoba, Nunavut and Yukon. However, if you don't live in the above jurisdictions, you're still more than welcome to trade with me. No trade to Russia, Belarus and Iran.

I'm an easy going, helpful and patient guy, but here's now my turn to announce that my NO TRADE LIST is growing due to an increased lack of civility on the forums and the full site. If (1) you nitpick and/or always have an opinion on anything and/or act like you own the site and you're not Admin or (2) you do not respond to counters or decline without expressing a reason or don't PM me to ask more time after several days of wait or (3) you send me ridiculous off-balanced offers or (4) you accept the trade and you can't mail your cards in a timely manner or you send me loose or severly damaged cards or (5) have a brand new (empty) account without info / feedback and ask for valuable cards or (6) you clearly didn't read my profile (ask first, at least) and ask me to buy your cards, then chances are that you just won a place on my NO TRADE LIST regardless of how much I may want what you have.

I am fine with shipping cards in single or multiple PWEs, if the cards are properly packaged. Also, I don't mind large or small transactions, but I currently prefer trades with 10 to 20 cards going each way or at least that the cards carry more value than the postage. I am working 12 hour shifts, but I always try to ship the same or the next business day. Just remember that Canada Post doesn't pick up or deliver on Saturday and Sunday.

International shipping is very easy, but it costs more for BOTH traders (not just from the U.S.). Here are some tips to save on shipping costs to Canada: use PWEs (Plain White Envelopes) and avoid bubble envelopes, plastic boxes and big stacks of cards. Ship as flat as you can (cut 9 pocket pages in 3 rows and insert 4-5 cards in each pocket). The more it looks like a greeting card or documents mailed in a regular letter instead of a package, the more it tends to be cheaper to ship. Current U.S. to Canada first class postage rate (up to 2 oz) is $1.40 and if non-machinable, $1.79. If you don't have Global Forever stamps handy, three regular Forever stamps work as well. There's also no need to pay $14.85 for shipping with international tracking, because it is just too expensive, it will be way slower to arrive and Canada Post won't track your postal item anyway. Overall, postal service tends to be slower in Canada and at times a bit harder to predict, but it is as reliable as in the U. S.. Lastly, no cross-border shipping by Fedex or UPS: they charge $40.00+ custom brokerage on each and every package they handle no matter if it is duty free or not.

Lover of all things baseball and avid card collect and trader.

First and foremost a baseball vintage set collector (1980 and earlier) with my daughter, but we also enjoying opening packs together so secondarily a current baseball set collector as well.

Happy to trade baseball for baseball, and trying to trade all non-baseball cards to make room for more baseball.  

For the most part, when trading baseball for baseball, we would like to trade like for like: vintage for vintage, current for current, SPs for SPs, etc.

Dot-vars: We are listing variations accurately for trade, but not collecting different variations.  Adding all variations to our want-list to "cast a wide net" but only collecting one variation of each card.

Since I've been asked where our username came from... my daughter picked it for our geocaching name years ago and wanted to carry it over here.  Pretty simple.

Happy to post pictures of cards for trade for any trading partners that need. 

***Constantly updating our want/trade lists so please check back for trades.

Baseball, Basketball, Football, Hockey, Multi-Sport, Non-Sport

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

If I don't get a response within 10 days, I will withdraw proposals, as I would assume at that point, there's no interest in the sale/trade. 

I only go to the Post Office on Sat to mail all sales, trades, etc. 

Smoke-Free home! 

• Currently working on filling my 2011-2020 topps heritage. Willing to trade inserts for bulk commons 

• I'm still loading a ton of cards on my forsale/trade list so check back periodically to see if we can match a trade.

• Will sell from my forsale/trade list

• I do not pull cards before making a proposal. It’s rare that I don’t have what’s listed but it can happen but I will pull them before accepting a proposal 

• All cards will be sent PWE. Will send 3 PWE to keep the cost down. Anything more than 54 cards(3 PWE with 18 in each) will be sent in bubble mailer/box.  

70's, 80's Baseball, Football, Basketball and some Hockey but I'm open to pretty much anything.

Reds and Bengals team sets,  Walker Buehler and Peyton Burdick. Slowly working on 50's and 60's Reds pretty much any condition. 

I just obtained a few hundred 1975 and 1976 Topps baseball that I added to my FS/T. I didn't list condition for most. Just ask about condition if you're interested in any. 

I have a small collection listed DL (for sale/trade). These are well loved, mostly vintage, for any trader who isn't concerned about condition. If you are interested in any, just ask, and I will move to my FS/T. I didn't want to put these on my normal FS/T list for obvious reasons, although there are a few that are not in too bad of shape. 

The late '70's football that I have for trade have been well taken care of. The cards that I have conditions listed are because of more extreme centering issues.

I try to keep my fs/t list accurate incl. Donruss, Fleer, Upper Deck etc.(dots, asterisks, etc.)  If that's important to you, just ask me to verify the variation. 

I like big trades, and I like small trades, even if it's not worth the postage. For me it's all about completing the team or set or whatever. It's still better than buying a 50 cent card on eBay for $1+s/h.

I collect just about anything trading card related, open to trades. I'm always updating my collection feel free to message me. Not interested in buying at the moment. 

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

POSTAGE -- my list of trades that are arriving with postage due is increasing so please if you are uncertain about how much postage is needed go to the post office  

******************

update 2024 - it is still VERY RUDE to just decline a trade proposal without saying anything or countering -- does it really take that long to say 'really busy right now, maybe in a few weeks'? or counter something? - are you really that BUSY!??!!?

************

update November 2023 - 

the approximately 6000 cards have been added to my FS/T list - that's not something i want to do everyday!

a note on card condition - the baseball cards (the football and basketball cards are in MUCH better condition!  at least Ex-Mt, some look like they just came out of the pack! ) from the 70s are at least VG some are actually Ex-MT --  the 80s are mostly Ex - the 90s are mostly Ex-Mt --  NONE are Mint right out of the pack - i will NOT be listing the condition of each and every card but will let you know when they are in a transaction -- variations were not always checked - if you need a specific variation be sure that is communicated in the transaction :)

REMEMBER THIS IS A HOBBY!

HAVE FUN!

MAKE TRADES!

-- when i make a trade proposal i am trying to get cards that are in my wantlist and trying to get you cards that are in your wantlist - if i offer a 'valued' 5 cent card for your 'valued' $5 card i am not trying to take advantage of you (dont take advantage of me either :)  - MAKE A COUNTER - why are you declining? - I spent time trying to put together a trade propsal based on our wants - why have cards in your want list if you really dont want them?  it is RUDE to say nothing - this is a hobby after all, isnt it?  MAKE A COUNTER   dont be RUDE!

- my (current) favorite quote -  

'Yes, why? Why does anyone make any sort of collection? ... Some of us are born collectors and have to collect something for peace of mind. ... As a child .. was encouraged to collect for, ... educational reasons ... eggs, dried flowers, butterflies and geological specimens ... none of these were very satisfying. So, finally, I have come to collect a "far, far, better thing": Cigarette Cards' - LADY MARGARET MACRAE, O.B.E., J.P. - The Cigarette Card News No. 1, Vol. 1 October, 1933

Cigarette Card News and other publications are available here - https://prewarcards.com/resources/

new to this site but not to collecting (have been collecting something since the late 70s

mostly a Kansas City Royals team collector

starting to get some Kansas City Kings, Kansas City Blades, Kansas City Scouts, Kansas City Wiz and Kansas City Wizards cards (guess you could say that I am actively collecting all teams Kansas City, except the Chiefs.....

do have some Kansas City Chiefs (?!) cards but am actually a Pittsburgh Steelers fan

also collecting Pittsburgh Penguins, Pittsburgh Pirates, Pittsburgh Condors cards

Indianapolis Pacers from the late 1970's (because we lived close even to attend a few games, but I dont know the exact ones, no saved ticket stubs or programs

will be trying to trade away some of those duplicate Kansas City Royals cards, probably going to need to find some cards other the Kansas City Royals because not everyone wants Kansas City Royals cards!

collect Jim Kaat cards - (dad still had a few 1960 Topps that he collected including Kaat's rookie card and when I started collecting in 1981, I pulled a Kaat card and my journey down the card collecting lane began) - piecing together that 1960 Topps set that I inherited

and of course there are the "just 'cause cards' that I'll just find and put in a want list!    (space ships, sci-fi, goalies, kickers 

=========

if it matters - I get to the post office once a week on Wednesday

===============================

Hi there, I'm Dustin. A Seattle Mariners fan (dogs named Griffey and Felix), I collect 1) George Kirby, 2) Kyle Seager, and of course Griffey, Randy Johnson, Edgar, Ichiro, Felix, and Julio. My goal is to be a top 10 TCDb collector of both Kirby and Seager by the end of 2024. Also hoping to begin collecting Gonzaga Bulldogs basketball alum, especially in a Zags uniform.

Primarily into baseball cards and trading (bought too many cards recently, pausing most purchases for the time being). I like collecting complete sets.

I moved into a new house in October and currently have only unpacked the cards listed here. Over time, I plan to start adding my 30k+ collection to this site (mostly 1987-2002 – I know, I know). Archiving stuff is actually a part of my day job, so I look forward to taking my education and training and putting it to use to better my adolescent collection. 

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.
