Trading In Your Favor -- week 2 HOCKEY!!

As you can see from the headline that week 2 of trading in your favor is here. I've decided that with this weekend being NHL All-Star Weekend that it should be a hockey theme for this week.

Like last week the offer is 4 schedules in return of every 1 that you have from either this list, or the from last week. If you look and, compare both lists you will see that the hockey were brought up into this list..

Trading In Your Favor 2019

The yearly schedule collecting tradition continues. Once again I am offering 4 schedules for every 1 you can trade me from my wantlists.

Last year was a fantastic success by doing the 4 weeks of different offers. I think by breaking down the lists instead of overwhelming everyone with a mile long wantlist worked way better. I know for myself, that mile long list will sometimes lose me along the way. Especially when you throw in having to look through a giant traders list to complete the trade.

Starting off week one will be 2018-2019 schedules. I changed departments at work, and the new one had tooons of overtime. With all the overtime I missed some baseball, all football, and all hockey. So we will start there, and hopefully fill in some of the holes.

I've added probably a couple hundred minimum to the traders since last year. This hopefully means you will find something new that you can use in return.

Business As Usual

'Trading In Your Favor' month has come and gone. Changing things up this year was a great decision as I managed to add a bunch of schedules. I doubt most of these would have come my way using the old go through my giant wantlists method. I'd like to end by thanking everyone who took me up on the offer. Look for it to happen once again next year using the same type of format as was used this year.

Next up is I made another trip south to visit fellow collector Mike. It was a great time as we talked a bit, and he even showed off some of his mass collection of schedule holder, bobbleheads, etc. with me. I could have looked and talked longer about the stuff he had as I'm not looking to add any into my collection, but it is awesome to admire another collection. My favorite was when we did a somewhat quick look through one of his business card binders. Now that was some stuff that I wouldn't mind seeing in my own binders of sports business cards. I hope he enjoyed showing it off half as much as I enjoyed looking at his collection. I could look at a great collection like Mike has for hours. If you ask me the best parts of collecting is both showing, and admiring a collection.

 Overall it was an incredible day that saw Mike unload some schedules to make more room at his place, and me some new trader fodder, and some missing stuff for my collection.

Trading In Your Favor Time!!

In what has become an annual ritual in trying to fill in past holes for the schedules collection. I am once again running the ~Trading In Your favor~ offer. This time of year is usually fairly slow in new schedules coming out. Because of this lull I like to use the time to try, and fill in schedules that I've missed in the past.

In past years I've offered various amounts of schedules or sports business cards for each schedule from the wantlists. Once again this is the case, but to hopefully keep things flowing better. I have gone to a different theme each week this year. The idea is keep the list smaller, and not overwhelm everyone with a giant list that personally bores me at times to look through. So far it seems to be working as I feel this might already be one of the better years for doing this idea.

Week 1 - 2018 schedules which was a total success that even filled in a couple schedules that were brand new, and not even on the wants yet.

Week 2 - 2017 schedules that either slipped through the cracks while contacting teams, or sponsor variations I had trouble getting.

Week 3 - The current week that is running is every schedule missing from the hockey wants page.

The offer each week to date has been 5 schedules for everything you send my way from the wants. I will extend the offer for any schedules not included in that weeks theme, or for schedules from past weeks. Any business card wants will get the exact same respect of  5 schedules or cards in return.
