WTT/B Pokemon cards to finish collection; now w/ trade list

[joshnickerson]

I am currently attempting to finish the earlier Pokemon TCG sets. These are the cards I am currently searching for. I would prefer to trade for them (my trade list is at the bottom), but I am willing to pay for anything you may have. Just let me know which cards you are looking for and we can work out a trade. I've set up a webpage that has pics of each card, as well as a list of available trades, which you can check out here. (http://www.rydia.net/joshnickerson/dp/pokemonwish.html)

Please read the following:
* Please note that I am looking for the original set cards in English only.

* I am not interested in the re-printed cards in Base Set 2 or the Legendary Collection Set, nor Japanese cards.

* I'm not looking specifically for 1st Edition cards. Unlimited edition cards are just fine with me.

* I am also only interested in cards in excellent condition, with minimal scratching. I do not want any damaged cards, which are torn or creased or have writing on them.

* If you would like to trade, please give me a list of the cards you are looking for. More than likely I'll have it.

* I may ask for a photo of the card(s) before completing the trade/purchase. I will do the same for you if you ask.

* I AM NOT INTERESTED IN BUYING LOT SETS OF CARDS. I just need the ones listed.

Thank you!

[mgriff]

How old are you, that you are still collecting pokemon cards?

[chicnstu]

Why do you have to be a certain age to do or not do something mgriff?

EDIT: I might have some of the cards you are looking for. Would you happen to have a "Happy BirthDay Pikachu" card? I don't collect the cards anymore and I still have mine put up but when I was into collecting them, I was really wanting a happy birthday pikachu card but I couldn't afford one.

[Sailorneorune]

@josh: I have some of those you're looking for. I'll revise this post with the ones that I'm positive I have.

Edit: I have Aerodactyl, Sabrina's Alakazam, Sabrina's Gengar, Misty's Gyarados, Brock's Ninetales, Giovanni, Snap Pikachu, and Flying Pikachu.

@chicnstu: I have the English version foil Birthday Pikachu card. Send an offer, or are you looking for the Japanese-language card?

[namzep]

I have a stack of Pokemon cards at home that I'll look through and get back to you with what (if anything) I have off your list.

[jwl]

Are you looking for "1st Edition" ones or non-1st Edition ones. I haven't gone through my cards in a couple years, but I had pretty much all the early sets complete and lots of doubles. I'll go through them when I get some time in the next couple days.

[joshnickerson]

@jwl: I have no preference. Unlimited is just as good as 1st edition in my book.

@Sailorneorune: PM sent!

@chicnstu: Sorry, I don't have a spare one. I wish I did though!

@mgriff: Not to young to boogie, not to old to rock n' roll! ;)

[Muscelli]

[DKTheArcadeRat]

I have an Articuno #48 promo, but unfortunatly, it seems to have a very slight crease (I can't really tell). If you are still interested, I'd just give it you. Let me know!

[Cauterize]

[joshnickerson]

@muffinman943 - It'd be helpful if you'd list what you had. :)

@DKTheArcadeRat - I'm not really looking to buy any sets, I'm just trying to fill up the gaps in my own collection. But please list any you have that I'm looking for! 8-)

@DDCecil - I'd never turn down a free card! Just let me know if you're still willing to and I'll PM you my snail mail addy.

@Cauterize - I'll be glad to take Scyther and Dark Gyarados off your hands. Do you want to trade again? Let me know if you do, and what you're looking for.

Thanks again for the offers everyone! :D

[CYRiX]

heh, good times in 5TH grade...

[TS_Death_Angel]

Amen brotha, though it's 4th for me ;P

[dbiersdorf]

I think it would be pretty cool if you could get every card from every set. That would be one hell of an impressive feat.

Good luck man, I for one think this is a great undertaking. :)

Blastoise (Holo)
Clefairy (Holo)
Mr. Mime (Hollo)
