A Helpful Tip For You Set Builder Folks
Hello friends,
Something I've noticed in threads when people are trying to trade for set needs ... most will only give the card numbers, not the players' names.
I very rarely build sets, so I don't usually put the cards in any kind of order once I take them out of the packs.
There's a great website called Cardboard Connection that has all the checklists of products when they come out, so if you take a few extra minutes and put names with the numbers it might be easier for potential trade partners to pull them for you.

Good point! I'm more likely to remember if I have a name than a number, especially if I don't have time to sort through my boxes of base cards lol

I know how this started LOL. I am bad about that. Though I do use CC quite al lot to make my checklist. Just don't think about it since I am on the extreme anal side with all of my non-pc cards in numerical order. Though there are many stars that I have separated in there own boxes and they are in chronological then brand order.
I collect Andre Johnson, JJ Watt, Redskins who played in the 70’s & 80’s, HOF’ers and Texas A&M Aggies.

It wasn't you my man, LOL ... I saw a trade thread where a guy listed a bunch of numbers with no names so I thought I'd throw it out there.
