So long ago I have no idea as this would predate the Trade Manager by a few years. It was either Vladfan27 or LPrimus I think.

Cool thread.

My first trade was on 2/28/2007 with jdthakid36. He referred me to this site from the Beckett forums, at which point, I traded exclusively on The Bench for over 2 years.

He hooked me up with a SWEET Puckett GU and some misc. Twins cards for a few 92 Topps Golds.

My first trade was with cardcollector01, aka Robbie and Becka in early 2009. We traded each other a few of our respective 08 Goudey needs. I haven't seen them on the boards in a while, which is sad because they are great traders.

They broke up and Robbie drops by once in while. Best regards, David

Awesome trades.

My first trade pre-dates the trade manager.
I remember plenty of them with mcgwirenut, Butch, Legacy, MarkWing, Champs and a bunch of the now banned members before they went sour.
I love going back and reading my poor vocabulary and seeing how much I displease the vocabulary and spelling of the current 'kids' on here. Kind of a hypocrite, oh well!

My first trade manager deal was..
