If that was the same Mantle dealer, from last year, I felt his prices were inflated. I track Mantles pretty often, as he's my main collecting draw. To be charging that much, for unslabbed cards, with no idea what they will come in, grade wise, is a "no" from me.

In general I have a rule of only buying raw vintage from sellers I trust, or from sellers who have the trust of prominent members in the community. Unless that dealer was guaranteeing a full refund, If I brought one of those to PSA/SGC and it came back an "Authentic" would I be willing to buy from them.
