New month..new bump.

Looking to close this one out, no trade too small.

Did you ever complete this set? I never heard back from you.

PM if needed

Nope still looking -- just don't have any Astros available at this point to send you in return. Appreciate you checking in, but don't think I can make it work from my end. Sorry.

 

[Platnum71]

Send me your want list and your trade list
I might be able to find trade bait
or I could sell them very cheap

The cards you mention from me - Topps Chrome (TC) or Topps Chrome Update (USC). I am assuming Update, but just want to make 100% sure. I have no problem with the trade, my concern is the condition of the base coming to me. I have been hosed on at least a half dozen deals where I send nice inserts/color border for base and what I get back goes straight in the trash. If I am trading away 3 colored border RC's, I want 100% mint, checked for print lines, defects, no divots, held against the light to ensure no defects, etc. Sorry for sounding like a jerk, but my frustration level with trying to complete this set is very high.

I totally get it. I almost wrote something about condition requirements in my original post but figured if you were doing the TC Update set that you were familiar with the complete lack of quality control. I'll attach a picture for you, but not sure it will help as much as you may want. I am happy to send you the cards as a freebie deal and then you can decide what to send back based on what actually meets your criteria. Or, if there are some obvious red flags from the picture, we can just leave those out from the get-go. I don't actually need any of the cards I listed in return, I'm just trying to get back into some trading after a long hiatus. Thanks!

Cool - appreciate your understanding of the situation!! How about we post the trade, but you send first and I will message you when they arrive so we can discuss any issues. Can't see anything from the picture unfortunately.

If that works for you - we can post it up and get things moving. Thanks.

After getting through trades, do not need any of the cards you have, but will gladly trade for the ones you listed as needing, if still needed.

 

[katester44]

Down to the last 3 - 143 198 200

Help me wrap this one up!!! PLEASE!!!!

Busted 2 Megas and 3 hangar packs on Xmas - honestly thought I would be much closer to a complete set than this.....but in for a penny, in for a pound.

Extremely happy that the quality issues that Topps has been having with their flagship releases and the Holiday set didn't stop with Chrome Update. 20 different cards with various creases, bends, roller marks and a new one, perfect circles on the back of cards, almost like they were hit with a hole punch that didn't go through the surface. Hopefully with the Fanatics acquisition, this solid QC will continue (as we all know it will)...

Anyway, here is what I need and what I have to trade.....

When you say pink wave - do you mean the normal pink border that is inserted like 2 or 3 to a blaster?

no they were only in the hanger boxs

 

[katester44]

no they were only in the hanger boxs

OK - than don't think I have any of those, sorry.

 

[katester44]

Haven't tried finding these last 3 cards in a little bit.

Any help getting these off the desk would be greatly appreciated.

 

[katester44]

Now that I have wrapped up 2023 Chrome - time to turn my attention to the final 3 cards that I need for 2022 Chrome Update.

Help me put this one to bed!!

 

[katester44]

Finally broke down and went to Ebay to pickup the last 3 cards I needed for my set. Hate to do that, as I would rather trade for them, but after awhile, sometimes you just get tired at looking at a stack of cards wondering when it will get wrapped up.

Everything remaining is up for trade/sale.
