2018 Trading Card Database Trade #22 - bkim -or- Thankfully, I Didn't Give Up Much

I love most of the buyback trades, but this one feels like it was for the most basic of buybacks.  Also, there was supposed to be a fifth card, but the trading partner couldn't find it.  BOO!  


2017 Topps - Rediscover Topps Stamped Buybacks Bronze #337 Calvin Schiraldi

2017 Topps - Rediscover Topps Stamped Buybacks Gold #780 Mike Flanagan

2017 Topps - Rediscover Topps Stamped Buybacks Silver #224 Tony LaRussa 

Didn't even notice the whatever on the card until I cropped the scan.  


2017 Topps - Rediscover Topps Stamped Buybacks Silver #312 Joey Meyer

I don't believe there's anyway to sugar coat it, but this isn't the most inspiring group of buybacks.  I can't see any of them staying in the set for too long, unless they are just unopposed.  Luckily, I didn't give up much in return for them.

I've decided to try selling on Sports Card Direct again.  Hopefully you'll take a look at my page and see if there's anything you're interested in.  I can always sell off the site and ship in a PWE if you're only looking for a card or two and don't want to pay $3 shipping.  I'm going to start listing more cards daily.  It's time to get out of a lot of my stuff.  


If you shop online and haven't signed up and used ebates yet, you're missing out.  I also use it on eBay to get money back from purchases there.  Between referrals and cash back, I've gotten over $150 in a year.  FREE CARDS!  Another $40 was depostied into my Paypal account last week.



If you're on Twitter, please give me a follow.  You can also find me on Trading Card Database.  I love trading cards, when it makes sense.  Happy collecting!

Thanks, @Just21hb

Thanks to Justin, I have four new Topps buybacks in my collection.  He reached out to me on Twitter asked for my address and nothing else in return.  Collectors like Justin are what's right in a hobby that has a lot of "wrong" associated with it.  I will have that Griffey out to you soon, Justin!


This card is definitely my favorite of the four.  I'm sure Shane would love to get it through our buyback exchanges, but this one may remain mine for awhile.  I love the old Milwaukee uniforms, have grown fond of 1990 Topps and I love fielding images.  Sorry, Shane! 


I love this one as well.  I live just minutes from where the Rangers play (and played in the early 1970s), but have never seen a palm tree in this part of Texas. 


You know it's a great group when my third favorite card is from my favorite set ever. 


You also know it's a great package when the one bringing up the rear is an All-Star card.  This envelope was full of buyback goodness.  Thanks again, Justin!

Dime Box Buy - 1983 O-Pee-Chee #350 Robin Yount

I was pretty surprised to find this one in a dime box.  Perhaps it's the poor centering.  I know there are some Brewers/Yount collectors in the blogosphere and if any of you need this for your collection, let me know.  It's available.
