I believe I've mentioned this before, but on the TCDB I have two separate collections - one for the Time Travel trading Project, and my personal collection. Each collection has it's own For Sale list, but when a member looks at my profile, they have no way of knowing which collection a card they're looking at comes from. This leads to trades where cards come from both collections. I recently made two such trades. In my most recent Time Travel Trading update, I showed off the cards I received for sending out cards from that side of my dual-collection, and today I'd like to show off the cards I'll be adding to my personal collection.
Chris, from Hamilton, IL was the member who I traded a bunch of non-sports cards to. In addition to what I showed last week, I picked up three cards for myself.
That Dennis Lamp card is an O-Pee-Chee, and of the 1991 Studio he had it was easy to pick Big Mo and the iconic Steve Lake card!
A few times I'll have someone offer a trade looking for some vintage cards, and since most of my want list items on the TCDB are newer, they offer the newer cards up as a return. I try my best to explain my Time Traveling Project, and offer up a counter that not only satisfies my project trade parameters, but also hopefully works to get some want list cards as well. That was the case with Joseph (Nashua, NH). We were able to pull off a 4 card trade where I got 2 cards for the Time Travel Trading stack, and 2 for me!
I was not expecting it to take this long to get last year's Enrique Hernández card, but now that I did I have all the Red Sox cards from the 2023 base set. I also picked up my 2nd 150th Anniversary parallel in the past couple months.
Thanks for the trades Chris and Joseph!
