Welcome Jason...I've completed numerous transactions and haven't been burned...yet. Don't want to set the false expectation that it doesn't happen because I've read stories of bad experiences. I would recommend participating in threads first and build up your post numbers, that generally builds trust with board members and you'll have a better idea of who to trust yourself. Good luck with the 56's, it's a great set! You completing the master set with white and gray backs?

No, just going for 1-340, doesn't matter if it's grey or white back.

Bill, would you ask someone to send first until you have either references or see a track record?

Your response completely avoided my immaturish comment.

Post your 56 Topps wantlist and the cards you have to trade by make and year and number... That will get the ball rolling... Also post the condition you want and conditions of the cards you have to trade... I have a few extras depending on your condition requirements

That was the point

I saw the condescending 'supposedly' in there and addressed that and only that.

I think both parties should send on the same day. Seems pretty simple.

+1

If talking small $ amounts, both send at same time. If hundreds/thousands $ in cards and either party is not comfortable, Leon seems willing to help and act as intermediary.

+1 - that's how I've always done it. If you don't trust someone enough to do it this way then you probably shouldn't be trading with him.
