1952 Topps Mantle on ebay

[begsu1013]

i was watching this card as well and was trying not to do anything to "advertise" her. but since it's been done.

it's a super nice 2.5
i, too, wish there was a better picture or a scan so i could scan the bar code.
i have not tried to message seller (usually wait til the day of)
the lack of any recent buying feedback has me concerned.
the lack of any selling feedback has me even more concerned.

gonna be bidding, but will definitely be putting it on my amex just in case for an added layer of security.

It is amazing what people will sell with less than desirable pictures and descriptions, even high dollar items. Who doesn't have a scanner these days or the ability to take a close up photo with camera phone if you must go that route.

exactly, but sometimes it works in your favor price wise as it makes people a tad skeptical, like this.

so with all that being said. this card SCREAMS FAKE, nothing to see here. move along. move along!

disclaimer: joking on screaming fake. worth the gamble though.

Sorry, didn't mean to out the auction but I just have concerns and if it saves someone on the board some drama I felt it was worth it.

you're good dan! like 52 said...mantle doesn't hide.

I really don't understand how its bad taste to bring up any auction that's on the internet especially ebay....we all sell cards and buy cards....don't you want as many people as possible to know about a card for sale if you are selling a card.? Plus if you are the one that's bidding on a card you can choose not to 'out' an auction.. I just don't see people who aren't bidding on cards to 'out' every auction they aren't bidding on, I don't think it happens........just don't see how its a problem

Plus unfair that some are outed and some aren't....might as well let every card be 'outed' if there was any problems to begin with to ensure when you buy and sell a card you have equal chance to get close to what you paid for....

Nice card indeed, the only thing i can see, maybe something above Micks knuckles, appears to be a white line/scratch, other than that, i am clueless as to 2.5 grade.

At that starting price, I dont think anything was lost by outing the auction.

Something about the back turns me off

The slab is the new tamper proof design (not tamper evident). Unless someone has a WIWAG load of these slabs, the card should be good.

-0- feedback as a seller. Avoid.

Still no response to my very respectful and innocuous questions about the card and request for a high-resolution scan. I wouldn't bid on it even if I did have the money.

[begsu1013]

i went ahead and sent one as well and still no response.
