Here is how this works:
Every so often (i.e. whenever I feel like it), I will add a card to a "Trade Stack". Whenever the stack becomes appealing enough to someone, that person needs to comment on the post saying they'd like to claim the stack AND tell me which card they are sending off of my want list. That's all you have to do - trade me ONE card (or more, of course) card from my want list for the entire stack of cards that I'm offering. Each time, it will be first come, first serve...so act quickly (unless of course you are a gambler and hope to wait it out until there are 10+ cards in the stack that you want in exchange for a single 2004 UD Vintage card that I am looking for)!
The Trade Stack:
Last update: 2/15/11
So a serially-numbered Chrome card isn't enough, you want more, MORE, MORE cards before you claim a trade stack. Ok fine: you win. How about a second so-called "west" team - this time from the National League? Is that enough for you to send a card off my want list? If the card itself isn't, perhaps you will change your mind when you read the text on the back (copied verbatim): "Barry is such an integral component of the Oakland staff that, in all nine instances of the past seven years in which it's thrown back-to-back shutouts, he's been the starting pitcher in one of them." Do you see the irony in the statement? Perhaps not, until you realize the card features Zito as a Giant (instead of as an Athletic like I presume he was in series 1 of 2007)!

Want the card(s) in the stack? Act fast - tell me which card you will send me off my want list in the comments below! If no one claims this card within a reasonable amount of time (a few hours up to a few days, depending) - I'll add another card to the stack and the process will start again!

Let me just say, if I haven't yet, that I LOVE this idea. Not interested in this stack yet (though it is my favorite so far), but I thought you should know haha.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you like it! I've got a bunch of other cool stuff that'll show up on trade stacks in the future too!
