Turkey Red Inserts For Trade

Just a quick Monday afternoon post to hopefully generate some trade talk.

I've got some Turkey Red inserts from the 2009 Topps set that I'd like to send to a good home. I'd also send my Brian McCann Topps CBR-BM (Career Best Bat Relic) to a good Braves home for little to nothing. I won't appreciate it. I've also got a Jimmy Rollins Turkey Red laying around as well.


In return I can think of a couple of specific things I'm looking for:


2009 Goudey #198 Shairon Martis
2009 Goudey #200 Cristian Guzman
2009 Goudey Any Black #'d parallels
2009 Goudey Any short prints from 200-220 (I have but a few)
2009 Goudey Graphs Marlon Byrd (don't ask)
2009 Goudey Graphs Lou Marson (again . . .)

2009 Topps Any Gold Parallels
2009 Topps Any Black Parallels
2009 Topps Legens of the Game (Except, Reese, Speaker, Mize, Maris, Munson, Wagner, Palmer, Pujols, Maddux, Molitor)

Alright, let's do some trading!

Chrome Anyone?

I'll start this off with a question for those of you who collect Chrome. What's the draw?

As far as I can tell, these are just "chromed-up" versions of the Topps base set, right? I'm saying that as if its a negative, but don't mean it in that way. I'm curious if there are people who collect both these and the regular Topps cards as well. I know very little about the product other than it seems to re-use the same photos from the base set and there are some variations.

I'm willing to be educated on this set and the merits and importance.

I did purchase a retail pack at Target the other day, just to take a look for msyelf.

I ended up with Kosuke Fukudome, Kaz Matsui, Erik Aybar, and an Xfractor of Jesse Chavez (RC). Nothing exciting for my collection, but I can throw them up in trades if someone out there needs/wants these cards for their collections.
