Hi,

I'm new here, hoping someone might be able to help me finish these two Topps sets.

1980 Topps Larry Bowa (630)

1978 Topps Pete Rose record breaker (5)
1978 Topps Al Hrabosky (230)
1978 Topps Bill Madlock (410)
1978 Topps Larry Hisle (520)
1978 Topps Vida Blue (680)

and I'd like condition upgrades on

1978 Topps Brian Downing (519)
1978 Topps Johnnie LeMaster (538)

I may be able to help you finish vintage sets. I've posted here a list of nearly 1,900 Topps commons, number by number, 1974-79. The '78s and '79s are in really sharp condition. I can tell you about the condition (and send you a picture of) any card(s) you're interested in. (I've also got a bunch of 1984 Fleer commons if those are of more interest.)

Thanks for taking a look.
 
I have all of these:
1978 Topps Pete Rose record breaker (5)
1978 Topps Al Hrabosky (230)
1978 Topps Bill Madlock (410)
1978 Topps Larry Hisle (520)
1978 Topps Vida Blue (680)
 
Great. Thanks for looking. I've gone through your 1978 wantlist and I have these:

Thormodsgard RC (162)
Tidrow (179)
Scott RC (191)
Altobelli (RC manager) (256)
Brewers team (328)
Roberts (501)
Sanguillen (658)

They should be in strong condition, but I'd have to dig them out to be sure. If yours are in comparable condition, it seems like an even trade. According to Dean's Cards and PSA, you come out just a tad ahead. What do you think?
 
The system is only letting me attach some of the files. I'll see whether it will allow me to attach the rest to a second message. (Now that I know what's expected, I won't be so detailed in my photographing in the future, but having started, I'll try to complete the job, so you don't think I've picked and chosen to hide anything.)

The photos show you what you'd be getting and give you an idea of the condition of the set I'm completing. Are your cards in comparable condition? Can you send photos (maybe of just the fronts).

Thanks for being interested in making a trade.

I understand why you haven't suggested a deal, t.rooster. I guess I no longer really see one here either. But thanks for making an effort. Maybe we'll trade some other time.
