Thought I'd throw this question out to the "Bench" community. :)

What/when was your first trade on "The Bench" and who was it with?

I had to check to make sure, but I did remember my first trade here.


My first one was posted on 8-11-2007 with Bench member scottzoe.

I traded a 2001 Topps Gold Derek Lowe for five 2006 A&G base.



What's yours?
 
Trade #13833 with LEGACY on 09-19-2005. I received lot of 1977 PCL cards (including BLUE MOON and JOHNSON) for 3 random inserts from post 2001.

This was my first "real" trade. I had one exchange about a week earlier with jamesnevans, but it was not an actual trade. I won a trivia contest from him.

I had a bunch of trades at once but the first completed by both sides was trade 84212 with bigpapi3434

I sent a Michael Bourn SP Rookie auto and a badly off-center 07 Turkey Red Black Refractor Ryan Howard for a Nick Swisher Prospect Premiere jersey and a Reed Johnson Bowmans Best bat rookie
 
Cool idea. My first trade was with MZimm I got 1960 Topps 7,399,491 and sent 1965 Topps 55,99.
 
My first trade was with tygercub12 on April 4, 2008.

I sent a 2007 Bowman Heritage Mickey Mantle SP and a 2007 Topps Chrome Mickey Mantle Story card.

In return, I received a 1997 Pinnacle Inside Dueling Dugouts #16 John Smoltz/Andy Pettitte.
 
My first trade pre-dates the trade manager by about a year and a half. I think it was with Vladfan27. I traded a 2002 Absolute Memoribilia Bonus Cliff Floyd auto...no idea what I got in return.

I'm still working on that Heritage set but down to just 5 SPs.
 
I really can't remember what my first trade was but know it involved a Jason Giambi GU card which I traded to lprimus way back in 2003 before the trade manager.
 
My first trade on The Bench was my first trade anywhere online. (I still haven't traded anywhere else).
It was with XZYXZY on 07-05-2008
I got: 2008 TOPPS GOLD FOIL KERRY WOOD & RICH HILL and cards he threw in. I sent: 2008 TOPPS GOLD DEREK JETER
The only other time I traded with him was number 100, putting me into the Hall of Fame!

I am not sure right now, but I think it was for a Biggio RC

Just click on the trade manager and go to the list of trades. Then click on selected trades and click on completed trades. Go to the last page and you'll find your first completed trade. Hope this helps! Best regards, David

I can't remember my first one either as it was before trade manager. I believe it was with Shepard but not totally sure.
