1971 Topps Baseball Needed + a List of My Extra 71s Sell/Trade

[Tere1071]

I have an extensive (150+) list of upgrades for my 71 Topps Baseball card set, mostly commons and minor stars, with few major stars that I'd like to trade for in ex to nr mint condition. For me, that means no creases or wrinkles; a black border on all sides of the card (70/30 centering works for me); no "snow" or print defects on the surface of the card; corners that aren't curbed or creased, and no writing or paper loss on the front or back. I also have many singles which are not quite in the condition that I want to upgrade in a separate list. This is a mid-grade "fun" set that's not intended for investment purposes, so slabbed and investment-grade cards aren't being collected here.


To trade, I have 53 Bowman baseball singles listed in the 1950-59 section (look at my post for 4/9 to see the Spahn) and a quantity of 71 high numbers in varying conditions. Please let me know if anyone would like to see any cards on the 53 Bowman list; here is a list of my 71 Topps baseball that I have available. (The list changes constantly as I find suitable upgrades.) Most are in vg to vg/ex condition with various cards that are better or worse, contact me for specifics:

Semi highs-524; 526; 532; 533; 534; 536; 541; 542; 543; 546; 547; 548; 549; 552; 554; 556; 558; 559; 561; 565; 566; 568; 569; 578; 581; 582; 584; 593; 595; 604; 605; 606; 608; 609; 610; 612; 613; 614; 615; 616; 617; 622; 625; 626; 628; 632; 634; 637; 638; 639; 641; 642; 643

High #s-646; 647; 652; 653; 654; 655; 656; 657; 658; 659; 660; 661; 662; 663; 664; 666; 667; 668; 669; 670; 671; 672; 673; 674; 675; 676; 677; 678; 679; 681; 682; 683; 684; 685; 687; 688; 689; 690; 692; 693; 695; 696; 699; 700; 701; 702; 703; 707; 710; 712; 716; 718; 720; 721; 722; 723; 725; 726; 728; 730; 731; 732; 734; 736; 739; 741; 742; 743; 744; 746; 748; 749; 751

In most cases I think I can beat eBay pricing on the 71s that I have on my list. Here's a sample of the values I would place on the commons from 1-523 on this list:

f-g .25 each
vg .50 each
vg/ex .75 each
ex to ex-mint 1.00 ea
near- mint 1.50- 2.00 each
Checklists, team cards, leaders, some minor stars, and HOF players would sell for more. Semi and high numbered cards would begin a 1.00 each for vg condition and move up depending on the player, condition, and what I had to pay.
