Title: Off topic trade offer
Post by: Maynid on November 12, 2011, 12:04:21 PM

I have come across what appears to be a complete set (55 cards) of opened, but excellent condition, Topps Red Sox cards from the 2004 World Series, along with some other related cards.  I am not particularly interested in them, but I wondered if someone else would enjoy them, if they would be willing to do a trade for any Redemption cards.  I don't know what they are worth, but I am not looking for an exorbitant trade.  Any thoughts/interest are appreciated!

I am interested.  Tell me more about the cards.  Do you have an image sample?

Here is an eBay auction that is current:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/BOSTON-RED-SOX-2004-World-Series-Topps-Card-Gift-Set-/400249931789?pt=US_Baseball&hash=item5d30c1480d (http://www.ebay.com/itm/BOSTON-RED-SOX-2004-World-Series-Topps-Card-Gift-Set-/400249931789?pt=US_Baseball&hash=item5d30c1480d)

However, no one is paying that price. The only one that has sold recently was this one:

There were others up for $5 with free shipping, but no one bid on them.

STAMP -  The 2nd link YMT posted has a good photo....unfortunately, it looks like they aren't valued highly :(.  Anyway, shoot me a post if you like.

I'll still trade for them.  I looked for a trade thread by you and only found one with a few TexP that you were wanting.  Send me a PM with some of the Redemption cards you need.  I'm sure we can work something out.  :)

We Red Sox fans are such memorabilia freaks. Didn't you ever see the movie Fever Pitch?

Actually, I didn't....but I think I will have to.  I have enough trouble finding time to watch the real team!
