Pure postal shenanigans on the part of my local post office. I won an auction for a 1953 Bowman Mickey Mantle in a PSA 2.5. It was delivered to the wrong house. PO gave me the runaround, it ended up on ebay again, with the seller living in New Jersey. I eventually got the money back for the card, after a long month. This was during the crazy bull run of vintage, so by the time I got the money back, a Mantle that presented similarly was well over a grand, which I couldn't swing at the time. I settled for buying a nice looking "Authentic" Copy. for around $350.
Still annoyed about the card. Was probably cracked and reslabbed at this point but it is what it is.
