Default what's the best trade you ever made; what's your worst

Posted By: warshawlaw 

Best meaning not necessarily the most lucrative, but the one that gave you the most satisfaction. Worst meaning the one that you could just vomit over now.

My best trade ever was probably trading some lower grade 1960s and 1970s stars for a 1958 Bell Gino Cimoli. The Cimoli is just plain rare and I'd heard of it for years but never seen one until I traded for it.

My worst trade was one I made in the 1980's. I got a huge box of cards of various sports from the late 1960's, including football, which I hate. Since they cost me nothing, I traded something like 200 1968 football cards of stars (Starr, Namath, Sayers, etc.) for a 1941 Play Ball Whit Wyatt. Argh.
