Thanks for the input.

Very nice looking card, and although I love mine, proud I own one, etc, etc, I think I would still rather have your's than mine just due to the front being in way better shape.

Thanks for all the input. Heading off to PSA and thinking an E-Bay auction is the way to go. I'll be sure to post when it goes up.

Thought I would follow up on this. The Mantle card came back as an A.
Planned on auctioning it. Listed at $15,900. Gone within 12 hours!

Good for you!

PSA didn't give it a number, just Authentic?

Also, seeing as I'd like to get mine graded, did it cost you $700 for PSA to do so?

Was $15,900 your highest bid or is that what you listed it for?

Thanks.

Very nice! Pretty strong price considering the crease, the back damage, and the authentic grade. Although a year from now this comment may be obsolete.

That sale is mind-blowing.
Makes me start to wonder? For those of us that have one, Time to sell?? or hold onto it, since we not need to sell??
For those that missed it, MattyC has his incredible 4.5 for sale at 200k.

Aah, the million dollar question?

If I were looking to sell mine, it would be a great time based on the exchange rate with the CDN dollar.

First it will need to be graded obviously for maximum money, then comes the hard part, like you, do I sell or keep it?
