Quick question for everyone. I have a 52 topps Mantle that I would like to have slabbed just in case I would like to trade it off or sell it as some point. I sent the card in to SGC knowing very well that were two pen marks on the front on the border. I was hoping to find the card slabbed as authentic but of course it was returned to me as marked. Is there another route that I can take? I know that PSA slabs cards as authentic but I don't want to join the darn group I just want it proved authentic for the future. I called SGC to ask if they would slab it for me but they told me that they only do that for rare cards as the T206 Wagner. Any options for me or do I just need to bite the bullet and accept the fact that it won't get slabbed by anyone with a good name. Although it might grade an 8 by PRO:) Sorry had to take the jab there.
