If you ever wanted to trade with me here your chance!!! For those of you that don’t know, I’ve been awarded back in 09′ “THe TRader of the Year” Award for best trader in all of blogland. Oh it’s true, its true…… Like i said i’ve amassed a huge number of cards that don’t fit into my collecting needs, so they need to be trade. The Tradew Bait site is up and running and i’ll be posting a team by team bait in the up and coming week. Hopefully this will bring me back into action since i’ve been a little off lately. Only time will tell i guess, so please let your friends know and your family too. If i get over 20 comment on how wonderful and cool the site is i will run a contest and giving away a couple of prizes…. Who’s your daddy??

Here’s the link… Wicked’s Trade Bait Page

Enjoy homies…..

1952 Topps

Never in my life time would i think that i would have owned a 1952 Topps but today i’m the proud owner of nine total with a couple more on their way. I really must say that i love these cards, the history the cards have are great. And all the hands that must have touched these, you just start to wonder. I really hope to add like a bunch more and complete the Brooklyn Dodger set too. Thanks for reading, Wicked out!!!

Beardy and me have trade over six times already but we always seem to find cards we both gotta have….. As this last trade the Jordan Zimmermann auto was a card that I’ve been chasing down a long time on Ebay…. But i always get outbidded at the last second. Well that and the Hanley made this trade super sweet and the rest is history. Thanks to Beardy for offering this cards up for trade!! And Happy New Year folks!!

Picked up this great lot on Ebay for just a couple of buck…. Even tho I think i own about three of the relic that are pictured here already it was well worth it due to the auto. You see, I’ve been chasing that card for a while now and i couldn’t belive it when I saw it in this lot. I guess I’m just lucky sometimes. Well thanks for reading and following!! Wicked out!!

Like many of you on here in blogland I too have a deep passion for collecting….. But that passion has taken a back seat to life and the world around me. Is it weird to think about how much money you’ve dropped on cards and what you have to show for it?? I’ve seem to have mixed water and oil in the same pot, you see to me it’s never been about the valve of the card or what all those price guides have to say about the cards. It’s about the love i have for collecting and all the fun it brings. But lately it hasn’t been fun and like i said before cards have taken over the house, making my wife upset and me thinking…. One of my buddies told me that collecting cards is like a money pit…. And i quote ” What do you see in collecting cards, like most everything else they also lose valve over time. Do i have to take you back to the 90’s??

You see I’ve really never told this to anyone in blogland, but in the 90’s i dropped a lot of money on cards thinking it would make me rich. Which ever happened and a lot of cards ended up in the trash with one kids broken dreams. I swore off collecting cards forever. I was a kid with a lot of “I told you so…” and questions but no answers. And empty pockets as well. So i stopped collecting until i was 27 years old. But i didn’t get back into cards just autographs. I use to be at every signing you could think of. It got so bad that it was basically my autograph collection or my family…. So i sold a bunch of stuff and put it in a IRA which is still holding strong today….. But I am at this point again in my collecting habits??

You see anything i focus on i go hard at…. I want the best of the best and i have no control. That’s why i would make a bad junkie, lol. But really collecting is like a drug, you fiend for a pack or a blaster every time you’re at Wal-mart or Target. And don’t even think about going to one of those stores and not taking a stroll down the card aside, cause you’ll be mad at yourself for days. Or you go looking for a t206 blaster but they don’t have any so you still have to buy something and you end up with a Topps ser. 2 blaster…… Which you didn’t want but you couldn’t go home empty-handed.

And i guess another thing i miss is trading…. Seems like all the trading has stop around here…. I use to get about 15 trades a month but now I’d be lucky to see 3 a month. And it’s mostly my fault cause i feel to lazy to comment on ya’ll blogs.

Maybe I’m just still in a funk….. Maybe i should sell some stuff, don’t worry y’all will gt first dibs. I just don’t know… Any ideas, or any sellers out there on which way is the best way to sell cards and sports stuff (autographes stuff). Or just a good story about collecting to get me out of this damn funk!!

Adam Lind, BlueJays

This is my Adam Lind Autographed collection….. A couple of other bloggers have much nicer Lind collections but i got started late. I have a ton of base cards and numbered cards of his also. I started collecting Adam about 7 months ago and i’ve really tried to get as many of his auto’s as i can. If anyone out there has any Lind auto’s that i don’t have and would like to trade please let me know, thanks!! Wicked out!!!
