I've bought many cards privately but just as a matter of personal taste I don't think I would be discussing what I paid on a public forum. Not that there is anything wrong with it.
Mantles sell frequently enough that I think you can get a pretty good idea of what to pay for one just by relying on publicly available data. When I was in the market I found numerous transactions on cardtarget and vcp and while of course many were out of date, I was able to piece it together with trends to come up with a reasonable idea.
You do have to be very careful though as has been pointed out. There are scams every day, and disturbingly there are fakes in fake holders that people have been burned by.
