Default Mr. Mint -- Alan Rosen

Posted By: Jim Crandell

I certainly don't buy the Mr. Mint is good for the hobby bs. The guy has made a living buying cards cheap from unknowedgeable collectors and labeling cards mint that I have found to be anything but. Certain mint sets I have bought from him have come back with an average grade near 6(ex-mint). Other mint cards have had creases. I bought a 48 Leaf Dimaggio that was advertised in an auction either nrmt-mt or mt--came back psa 4. Same thing with a 38 Goudey Joe D--psa 4. A T206 McGraw labeled as mint was creased.
