I finished adding all of my basketball cards (more than 3,200) to the Trading Card Database. About half of them are for trade. I'll have a recap post up by the end of the week. That led to my first trade, which I mentioned was with a user from Sweden. I haven't received my end of that trade yet (he's got his cards, so it should be soon.)
In the meantime I made a trade with Trevor P, author of the blog Bump and Run Football Cards. Those cards were received today, and so this marks my first completed trade on TCDB. Trevor is a fellow Packers fan, and so I traded about 50 of my green and gold dupes for some set fillers and football stars.
I'm now down to single digits in my 2015 Topps set build, thanks to these cards.
Technically I already had card #656, but as you can see it had a "rediscover Topps" stamp on it.
Trevor had 21 cards I needed for this year's flagship set, which got me past the 65% completion mark. Biggest names were the Klubot, the Bringer of Rain, and the MVP.
A trio of HOFers from the 2012 Cooperstown set. I picked these up for Jon if he wants 'em. If not I'll stash 'em in my star box.
My football star box got a nice boost with this six-pack of Prizm featuring the greatest QB of all-time...and Tom Brady.
Some Season Ticket base cards here. I don't think Edelman qualifies as a "star" (or a clean player) but I didn't have any of his cards until now.
Some keyholes or armor plates, or whatever Panini was going for here.
And the rest of the trade. Hornung will go in my Packers binder (I guess Trevor had a dupe?) Peterson and Ryan are my favorites here. I miss Topps Chrome (non-baseball) cards.
Trevor, thanks for the trade! I hope you're as happy with it as I am.
