Default Funniest trade you ever made/What non-card items did you get or recieve in trade

I had one come up on the Topps Million Card Giveaway; where I was offered a 1971 Frank Tepedino card for,,,,,,,,,, (wait for it) a

1971 Frank Tepedino card.

(As an FYI, these are all virtual cards until you ask for them to be redeemed, so I was offered the same card in trade that the other person wanted)

What is YOUR favorite funny trade story

In my Beckett days; we used to come up with creative trades amongst ourselves; some of the items traded for baseball cards included:

TV Sets; Golf Clubs, Airline Tickets, and the random lunches and dinners. What are some NON-Card items YOU either traded for BB cards or got in return

Regards
Rich

I am a veterinarian. I have a client that owned a card shop and found a cat. I traded exams, vaccines, and spay for cards.

I traded some empty sweet caporal packs for a 1909 Presidential (taft/sherman) ash tray. I always found that one kind of funny

I paint and sculpt miniatures for various game and model companies around the world. I currently trade painted military miniatures to a model collector in England for T206 cards he finds there. It's worked out pretty well for me.

When I had a card store, a customer who was a pizza delivery guy at night
proposed a trade for a Roger Clemens Topps rookie for a pizza dlvd that night.
Since I needed dinner and ya can't go wrong w/ pizza...I accepted.
