Default New user from Ontario Canada

Hello everyone, thought I'd introduce myself.

My name is Brett, I'm from Ontario Canada and the name "killerbee" goes back to the 90's old BBS games like Tradewars, Major Mud and LORD.

Damn, I miss those days.

I found this forum through a google search looking to understand parallels in various sports products. I collected hockey through the 70's and 80's and then it stopped in the 90's when we went from 3 products in hockey to 15, and baseball from 6 to 60.

What I loved most was to sort. I sort a lot of Lego now, but I used to LOVE buying vending cases of old topps baseball or OPC hockey and just finding new methods to sort.

It didn't matter if the cards had value or not. Now, I see boxes for sale with 6 packs of 7 cards and it blows my mind, the reality of course is that people aren't buying those cards to collect sets, they are doing it for the artificial scarcity and signatures.

That's my little rant about the old days.

One thing I'm looking for is 1995 Topps Traded cards. I don't know why this set interested me, but I bought cases. I have a full 3200 count box of doubles, some as many as 37 (luckily, the Rivera RC is one of them). So, I'd be interested in anyone that also has these so I can pick up the cards that I'd need to make sets. I know Chad Curtis (21t) and Todd Williams (29T) are the ones that stop me making sets.

If anyone has some 95 topps traded, I'd love you to reach out to me.


Thanks and hope everyone is collecting their passion

Cheers, welcome to the forum... Im just outside Barrie myself. Got back into collecting a few years ago, so much more products now compared to when I was a kid back in the 90's so I figured I would stick with Hockey, jeep it simple. lol
