I was cracking up at work today reading this thread. It's like an honest Mr. Mint or something. I see nothing wrong with a guy offering liquidity to a marketplace, especially if he's being upfront about it. I've been looking to take a break buying/trading but I may be interested to take him up at some point. Regardless, i hope to see the swashbuckling shenanigans continue.

My experience in this was interesting. Stephen and I debated the merits / feasibility of his trade strategy - it was done politely. I sent a lot over for consideration and we bantered a bit, but a deal was quickly done. Now, Stephen and I are polar opposites on the intense scale. Wasn't a problem. When we did do a trade, it couldn't have been two more different lots of cards; we obviously valued them differently. Much fun!!

That is very cool. Glad to hear this is the type thing going on....

My experience was also favorable. We texted back and forth for a day or so and came to an agreement. I hope to do another deal with him in the future for sure.

Hit the nail on the head!

Ok boys. Here is where we stand.

Started with a WOJO/WAJO.

I am now left with

T206 McGraw, finger air, psa2 HOF
T206 Kelly, psa3 HOF
T206 Pelty, vert, psa 4.5
T206 McEvlveen, bvg 4
a very nice raw NM range 62 topps Mays AS card
T-206 Rube Marquard
Honus Wagner Photo


Make a offer for some or all. We will then go on to the next stage.

Remember. I am not picky.

I hope you end up with that '52 Mantle instead of being shell shocked with only an '87 Topps Lasorda card to show for this. (the horror!)

For the record... I love the whole trading cards thing...

It brings back the spirit of original card collecting.
(can you believe it? Giants and Dodgers fans agreeing?!!!)

I collect original baseball artwork, and I'd love to trade some of my pieces to get ones featuring Giants instead of other teams...

Best of luck!!!

Your T206s should move fine. But like the last member said, I hope you don't trade from a T206 Wajo to a Donruss Joe Schmo at end......

I am following this with interest as I got three really nice cards for my T206 pursuit and am wishing Stephen all the best in his pursuit. I had a question for those in the know as I know nothing about photographs, but that Wagner piece is pretty cool. Does anyone have an opinion on what that might be worth on the open market? I am not interested in acquiring, just wondering what something like that would go for to a collector of such things. I guess it might be hard to tell from just a scan, but for my own edification, throwing the question out there.
