2011 Topps Needs... I Wanna Finish this Set Bad! Help a Troll Out...

So as I mentioned in the previous post - BA Benny's Baseball Card Buffet hooked me up with a bunch of 2011 Topps cards... Today, while watching the Braves and Mets duke it out I put all my 2011 Topps cards in the binder and I realized I wasn't doing as well as I had thought. I have been saying that I was 5 cards away from being done. Turns out I need 14 more to finish it off. I am anxious for Updates and Highlights now, but I really wanna finish this puppy off before U & H comes out. These are the cards I need:
35,202,331,333,343,388,523,541,554,574,582,618,639 and 653... If you can help me out, PLEASE shoot me an e-mail and we will make a deal... Also, I know that I still have trade bait cards that were claimed, but I have not yet shipped. I think that is because I am lacking addresses, so Daily Dimwit - If you still need those Diamond Giveaway cards, PLEASE send me your address. The Braves are leading the Mets by a run with 2 outs in the 9th. The two outs came courtesy of a really nice double play turned by Dan Uggla, who also extended his hitting streak. Nick Evans is at bat and you can feel the tension... Well, the tension didn't last too long, the Braves won it... I didn't care who won, but I enjoyed the game. I added a classic Gary Carter card in honor of BA Benny and because I am posting about 2011 Topps. My want list is UP TO DATE by the way... Check it out! Go Rays! troll out.

1965 Topps Trade Bait Volume 2, Come and Get 'Em!

Okay, if you are just stopping by, please read the post below. I am trying to finish off a set, 1965 Topps Baseball to be specific. My needs list is HERE. Below you will find 9 cards from that very set that are duplicates and I no longer have a use for them. My idea is that perhaps someone does need them and might have something that I need and be willing to make a deal. It sounds solid in theory. Here we go!
Cards #ed
70 Moose Skowron - White Sox
86 Les Narum - Senators
87 Nelson Mathews KC Athletics
109 Walt Bond - Colt 45s (a bit off-center) - CLAIMED Daily Dimwit
117 Wes Stock -KC Athletics
128 Vic Davalillo - Indians
142 Bill Monboquette - Red Sox
146 Ron Hansen - White Sox
148 Willie Kirkland - Senators (yes, he has a toothpick in his mouth, does anyone collect those?)


Okay, that does it for round 2. I have one more page to post today. I really hope that someone needs something here. If you do, claim in the comments and send me an email por favor. Go Rays! RE-SIGN CARL CRAWFORD! troll out.

1965 Topps - Begging and Offering...The First in a 3 Part Series of '65 Topps Trade Bait! Come and Get It!

Okay, my needs list is updated for 1965 Topps. It now includes my needs for the first 314 cards - it is a long list... I also included my dupes and most wanted cards. I REALLY want to get card #3. It is the last League Leader card that I need and if I get it I will have the first 3 pages filled. Anyway, here are 27 cards I have 2 of. In most cases I took the better condition card for my binder, but not in all. If you are really interested I can send you single card scans of a card shown. Anyway, here they are in all their glory... The first page includes cards #ed:
13 Pedro Ramos - Yankees - Claimed BA Benny
23 Bob Tiefenauer - Braves
27 Dick Bertell - Cubbies
51 Billy Bryan (really rough shape) Athletics
56 Ron Kline - Senators (has a pen mark below pennant)
57 St. Louis Cardinals (duh) - Claimed BA Benny
60 Jim O'Toole ( a little creased) Reds
66 Bill Rigney - Angels Manager
68 Del Crandall - Giants
Okay, there you have the first 9. There are 18 more cards coming, probably in about an hour or two. The rules are - claim the card on the comments here and send me an email with your offer.
My goal is to pick up as many 1965 Topps cards for my set.
I do have other want list needs that I will consider. I will probably not trade a '65 Topps card for a 2008 Topps Willy Aybar. Just saying.
One thing I can guarantee I would consider is Topps Gold, Black or Platinum Rays parallels. If I don't have it I could def consider trading vintage for those Topps parallels. A Rays uniform auto of any of the players listed on the side bar would be pretty nice too...
I hope there is something here that somebody wants.
I bought a couple of lots on the 'bay on Veterans Day (my day off from work!) and although they were both good deals, I ended up not scratching too many numbers off of my want list AND getting a whole bunch of dupes. I bought a 20 card lot and a 27 card lot and I have now 27 doubles left. Not too good Troll. Anyway, thanks for looking, lot 2 will be up shortly.
A few quick notes... Cash is limited around here, so unless you object the chosen card will be put in a penny sleeve, top loader and team bag and shipped in a plain white envelope with a single stamp.
Also, unless I note it otherwise, EVERY card I post will be available to trade for cards on my needs list, especially card #3! Go Rays! troll out.
