About Me

 

OK, hockey fans, here's the trades I've made since I started this part of the site.  You notice that many trades are made over the summer because it's boring without the NHL hounding season going on.

Big Trade with Martin Charpentier September 2, 2000
Martin Charpentier sent me: Alfredsson, Beliveau, Bouwmeester, Hedberg, Iginla, T. Linden, Nystrom, Robert, Theodore
Postmarked from: Drummondville, Quebec
Trade confirmed: August 27, 2000
Received: September 2, 2000
Duration: 6 days
Comments:  Martin Charpentier sent me a whole bunch of cards, and I sent him a whole bunch in return.  The trade involved 20 cards, one of which will be coming in the mail in mid-September.  Here is the list of items I received in this trade...
- Daniel ALFREDSSON: 99-00 O-Pee-Chee
- Jean BELIVEAU: 96 Duracell
- Jay BOUWMEESTER: Printed picture, trading card size
- Anders HEDBERG: 83-84 OPC
- Jarome IGINLA: 99-00 Dynagon Ice
- Trevor LINDEN: 97-98 Score
- Bob NYSTROM: 81-82 OPC
- Rene ROBERT: 75-76 OPC
- Jose THEODORE: 96-97 Skybox Impact
An additional card will be coming in the future from Martin; I had originally agreed to also receive a Ron Hextall autograph, but it was already traded away.  I will pick another card to complete this 20-card trade.  Thanks to Martin for a great trade!


Rob Zamuner August 22, 2000
Acquired in trade from: Arthur Chan
Postmarked from: Oakland, CA
Trade confirmed: August 21, 2000
Received: August 22, 2000
Duration: 1 day
Comments: Wow, that was quick, the quickest trade by mail I've seen.  It helps when the person you're mailing to lives only 25 miles away!  Art Chan of Fremont traded me this great Rob Zamuner autograph for an Andy Sutton signature.  Not too bad, probably my best quality Zamuner sig that I have.  
Alyn McCauley August 18, 2000
Acquired in trade from: Tricia Hall
Postmarked from: Bredenbury, SK
Trade confirmed: August 13, 2000
Received: August 18, 2000
Duration: 5 days
Comments:  From tiny Bredenbury, population 390, comes a pretty good trade to get another card for my set!  Tricia traded me this for an extra Phil Housley autograph.  The Housley added to Tricia's UD Choice 98-99 set.  Great job from Saskatchewan!
Sami Salo July 8, 2000
Acquired in trade from: Dave Donohue
Postmarked from: Ottawa, ON
Trade confirmed: July 1, 2000
Received: July 8, 2000
Comments:  Sami Salo is an improving defenseman with the Sens, and Ottawa fan Dave Donohue traded this signature from Upper Deck MVP for a Mike Ricci.  Great job, and as Dave promised, the cards arrived one week after he mailed them!
Jason Allison, R. Niedermayer, Dingman, Courville  June 14, 2000
Acquired in trade from: Mark Neufeld
Postmarked from: Niagara On The Lake, ON
Trade confirmed: June 7, 2000
Received: June 14, 2000
Comments:  This sure helped my set grow!  Two stars and two rookies.  All four cards are shown here.  Pretty good mailing time from Canada.  Nice work by Mark!  It seems all of them were obtained by mail some time or another.  And this will help me so now I can give Allison or Niedermayer a worthwhile item to sign in person!

Eric Lindros, Ty Jones, and Mike Richter June 9, 2000
Acquired in trade from: Shelley McCubbin
Postmarked from: Blue Springs, MO
Trade confirmed: June 4, 2000
Received: June 9, 2000
Comments: The first three-card deal, I sent Shelley two autographs and an insert card for the Lindros and Jones for my MVP set, and Mike Richter from UD Choice.  Not too bad.  All the autographs are pretty good, and the Eric Lindros for my MVP set means there's no more Big E stuff to get signed in my sets.  Good work by Shelley!  This trade is the first big trade I've done.  Coming up soon is a trade with Mark Neufeld involving four cards going each way.

Kevin Hodson May 22, 2000
Acquired in trade from: Mark Kohn
Postmarked from: Johnson City, NY
Trade confirmed: May 8, 2000
Received: May 22, 2000
Comments: I traded an extra 99-00 MVP I had of Marco Sturm to get an extra that Mark had of Kevin Hodson.  We can only trade extras, since we collect the same set!  The reply was sort of long, but I don't care, since I know that my stuff takes a little while to get there.
Ron Tugnutt May 22, 2000
Acquired in trade from: Andre Andrijiw
Postmarked from: Toronto, ON
Trade confirmed: May 13, 2000
Received: May 22, 2000
Comments: Before I confirmed the trade, Andre warned that this autograph is choppy.  After I got it, yes, I did see a bit of streaking and fading in the signature, but nothing really all that bad.  Ron Tugnutt has taken Tom Barrasso's place in Pittsburgh, and he hasn't been a Tom Barrasso autograph-wise.
Espen Knutsen May 19, 2000
Acquired in trade from: Brent Griffin
Postmarked from: Calgary, AB
Trade confirmed: May 13, 2000
Received: May 19, 2000
Time it took:  6 days
Comments:
Brent traded me this Norwegian cup-of-latte NHLer.  "Nuts" was drafted early in 97, but disappeared from North America.  I traded Jeff Friesen for this no-namer.  Pocket schedules were also exchanged.  If Espen wasn't in my set, I would not trade for him.
