I was talking this over with some other members of the board at lunch Saturday and we all think this card is in a bubble given the demographic trend in the Hobby. With so many Boomer collectors reaching senior status in the next several years, the collecting base of the people who had the income to chase the low end Mantles and the nostalgia for the Mantle era is going to shrink, and grabbing a fugly version at any price may not be a good idea. And FWIW, losing your shirt on a card, which has happened to me a few times in the last year or two when I went to sell stuff I purchased in 07-08-09, sucks @$$.
