SCF Baseball Card Traders May 2012 trading thread

**wftepps** · 05-17-2012, 02:49 PM

Hey! My apologies to everyone I'm tradin with this month. I had life get in the way for a little. Oughtta have everything shipped by the end of the week......also, I saw the gentleman above had interest in the Astros & I feel guilty denying him a spot as they're not really my team. I'll step aside next month and he can take my spot as Astros rep if he wants it. I will be sad to leave this group but if you would keep me on the waiting list for the braves. Maybe I'll be back one day

(Also on a similar note: anyone in trading with this month that hasn't shipped already, Braves cards are always welcome as well)

I have told Jacob this, and wanted you all to know as well. I am backing out of the group. I recently have realized I have next to nothing of some of the teams in the group, and just won't be doing a lot of buying of stuff. Just been too busy with two kids, and it will be hard to restock my stuff. It is a great group, and love to see it keep going.

Also at this point, I am working towards doing a 'House Cleaning Team Per Month' where I just get rid of everything I can find for a given a team, and then moving on to the next team. It likely won't be a team a month, as I don't have the time to dig through all I have each month. And also some teams don't have much interest. Like the Angels. I can't seem to find someone wanting them.

My plan is to trade away what I have for a lot less Red Sox cards and try and get rid a lot of the stuff I have laying around at home. And then focus on getting my overall collection collated and cleaned up. That would be the ultimate objective!

Anyway, it has been fun, but I am going to back out after this month!

And Valley Boy, if you are up for a large lot of Angels cards and you have some Red Sox to trade, please hit me up. I have 100s of Angels I would love to trade for a much smaller lot of Red Sox.

WFtepps: Sorry to see you leave so soon. Thinking you were going through with your original plan to ship at this point last week, I sent your lot out. I will PM Camh44 and let him know he'll be reactivated on 6/1.

Also, I rec'd a nice pkg. from Crosby 87 today, including a Topps Chrome Jenrry Mejia RC refractor. All that's left is for Jnuh to finally report in and confirm, because he has a phat Yankee lot waiting for him.

Have shipped to Swib25, 98Padres & RyanHughes12. Still waiting on Valley Boy to confirm trade for May.

Received nice lot from RyanHughes12 yesterday.

...anyone doing any team/group box breaks? I want in ;)

I don't know about box breaks. You'll have to speak to a moderator about that, Sam.

Got a package from littlea today to complete our trade.

I just got a PM from jnuh. He's been in training at a new job, and that's what's kept him away for a while. He's back through the end of the month, so he'll get caught up, but he's going to be away for a few days in June, and then should be ready to go full time after that.

Received an absolutely fantastic lot of Mariners today from 98Padres...highlights were GU King Felix and Dustin Ackley Chrome RC!! Thank you :)

Can we get this stickied, please?

**BAM1984** · 05-22-2012, 09:49 PM

Is anyone having trouble getting with Valleyboy regarding his trades? I cancelled out a trade because he didnt respond to emails nor did he confirm our trade. I figured his lateness shouldnt be the means of me scrambling to get a lot out in the last minute.

Oh well,

OH and HUGE shoutouts to RyanHughes12, Swib25, and 98Padres!! These guys sent cards from the early DBacks years (96-05)! I needed every card and they we were able to complete our trades as of yesterday!
