    The '52 Topps are yours, Perkdog. PM coming. If you are able to snap some pics of your cards (even a phone pic), it would be great. Thanks!

    Thank You! My Scanner is not working unfortunately however I want to add another item.

    I will give the PSA 9 Thurman Thomas Rookie 1989 Score, 3 Raw Chris Johnson Topps Chrome Rookies, a few Raw Tom Brady Cards AND a custom card of Charlie Trippi 1952 Bowman Style with a cut Auto.

    Don't know if this has been suggested but maybe something like this could work.


    One "I'll take it" per month......but if cards are up for more than 24 hours (or whatever amount of time is fair) with no takers, then anyone can take them.
    This will keep super active members from constantly scooping others on the good stuff, but will allow those same members to keep the thread moving when necessary.


    Just a thought. Awesome idea either way!

    Just to let it be known, I personally will not take any more cards I just wanted to do my part in keeping this going because I think its a great idea for the forum and a nice change of pace over the negative things that pop up from time to time. I continue to post even though Im not a collector anymore and enjoy it here image

    +100 For everyone that has paticipated!

    I also think it's a fun idea. I guess a post that mentioned about the PMs was edited before I saw it, but I hope it continues.

    Sean, your cards went out in today's mail.

    Since the total number of members who are going to participate in this is somewhat limited, I vote for once every 7 days.

    Thanks guys, I'm liking Mattingly's idea of an initial time limit. Maybe if an item is up for 48 hours and there are no takers, then anyone can take it. And anyone can take any item every 2 weeks. Would that work?

    Zep33 and Perkdog, your cards went out today.

    But still only ONE offer up at a time, right? If there are multiple offers at a time I think this will get too confusing.

    Yes, one offer at a time. Otherwise, we'd all be lost. image

    I edited the rules to include that and clarify/tighten it up a little bit. Thanks, Doug!

    I think this is a wonderful idea. A lot of fun for very little effort... and maybe some cards that people have taken for granted can make someone else's day?

    This seems to me like the kind of thing that would go on for a long time!

    (I hope at least until we get to 100 posts! LOL).

    Those who don't like it are free to stop reading the thread and are certainly not obligated to participate.

    Well, I PM'ed poweredh20 but the Musial went out today.

    I like the idea about if cards are there for more than Y amount of time then it is open game...

    How about something like this:

    One "I'll take it" every 10 days and if a 'lot' of cards is up for more than 24 hours then the people who are on the ten day break can grab those card. I don't think it should reset the 10 day timer though since it was up for the extended period of time.

    Basher thanks so much.

    2009 Fausto Carmona Heritage red ink real ones auto26/60. -- I bought this because I wanted PSA to "authenticate" it with his "real" name. They said they wouldnt.
    1959 Topps Clem Labine -- Only vintage card that was in the garage sale find a few weeks ago
    1985 Kick To The Face Aaaaandre The Giant -- Again from the garage sale find.
    and last a 1998 SP Authentic Bryce (no not that one) Drew PSA 9 RC 1499/3500 -- Had a burr up my ass about 2 years ago to build a PSA 9 RC set from SP.

    The beer is not included but depending on where these cards land, we might also trade some beer. I love local breweries and sharing Great Lakes (Cleveland, Ohio) with others.

    Cool cards, Dave! The red ink is very nice.

    I live in Asheville NC (Beer City, USA for the past 3 years) and would love to do some brew swapping. Not sure how easy to mail that would be though... Do you have Boulevard in your area?

    I say we give it a 12 hour clock. If no one wants it by 11:15 PM west coast time then its yours. It would of been on the trading block for 48 hours at that point.

    Sound good?

    1. Claim cards that are available.

    2. Post cards of your own.

    3. Repeat.

    That is really all there is to it. It got a little off track but I think we're back and good to go now.

    This is (hopefully) the last rule change/housekeeping post I'll make.

    For the purpose of keeping this thread active, you can now take cards every SEVEN days instead of 14. Also, if some cards have been here for more than 24 hours, anyone is welcome to them, no matter when they last claimed cards. But again, please don't be greedy and only take cards that go somewhat with your collecting focus (if you have one). I'd like a lot of newer or non-regular members to get in on this too.

    If this doesn't work out, I'll change it back to 14 days/48 hours.

    Thanks, guys!

    Also, this means prthd's cards (including that red ink auto) are available to anyone RIGHT NOW!

    No I don't want the lot. All nice cards, but nothing I collect. Plus Zep seems to want the auto for his collection.....that's what this thread is about.
