Well, they will only make "good money" if some idiot gets drunk enough to hit the buy-it-now for a severely trimmed item. Based on the length of time those have been listed I'm not sure that the seller(s) will be vacationing with their profits very soon.

For anybody interested in the ones on ebay, here is mine next to a slabbed one, let me know which one you perfer. Price is the same, hahahaha.

Insert smiley face here.

PS - according to the pop reports for our favorite opinion seller, there are 21 m114s in slabs. All are Yankees. All are "hand cut". There are multiples of each Mantle pose from ebay (but none of his third pose), and I would guess that each pose was resubmitted until it got a '2' so there are really fewer of them in total. Note that they are not called m114 on the slab, only Baseball Magazine posters.
