Notifying Registry members

Is it considered bad form to contact the registry owners when you have listed a card they don't have ?
Thanks, Rich

    Not me, I'd welcome it.
  • No problem here. Any help I can get adding to my collection is a good thing.

    I would love to here from you if it is me.

    After those four National League games, Gorman Thomas was never the same, and neither were the Brewers, and come to think of it neither was I.

    I would not consider it a problem and I have contacted others and they have had no problems with me contacting them.

  • I wish people would email if they have a card i could use for one of my sets.
  • I would absolutely want to hear from you. I hope everyday that someone will contact me on the Larry Bird cards I need so I can get that set finished (as well as several other sets).

  • I agree with the others. I'd welcome the offers.

  • I welcome the offers as long as it is reasonable based upon what I have. When I have a set that has nothing less than an 8, I don't want emails for 5's and 6's. I guess the opposite would be true as well, unless the price would be extremely low.

    The others have hit the nail on the head. Think about how much we (registry members) could help each other with their sets by just contacting each other. I know I would rather get a card from a board member than some other options ... hmmm I wonder who that could be.image

  • great question. i would not mind.
    i would also not mind if members contact me if they want a card i might have.

    now one final suggestion: putting in the sig line what sets you collect or even a link to your sets. oftentimes it is not easy to tell what someone collects.

    If it were not for being contacted by someone selling 59 topps I would never have got the deals that I would not get on Freebay.

    It depends on what you mean by listed. If you're alerting me to one of your E-Bay auctions, don't bother. Those emails annoy me.

    If you have a card just back from grading or sitting around your house, you notice I need it for one of my sets, and want to offer it off-line, then I very much welcome an email.

    Currently collecting.....your guess is as good as mine.

    I am not in the registry, but if I were, I can think of no better way to get cards I might need.

    I have gotten emails about cards I need, but all were ebay spam. I wish I could get one email not pointing to an ebay auction.

    I have always welcomed the emails too. When I was looking to break my 1955 Topps set I emailed around 20 or so collectors and I was amazed how many never even responded yet their comments said to contact them. One guy asked me not to email him which I thought was odd considering he was asking for upgrades. I have never had much success in selling cards this way. Perhaps the sets that I have collected over the years were not that plentiful.....I guess??
