DJ thanks for the shout out. I agree and would add that when collecting Mantles (and for that matter any cards these days), one has to parse “centered eye appealing” specimens from the others. The former really do behave according to their own set of pricing rules— namely competition will be stiff and expect to pay accordingly to bring the card home. I’ve taken my collection into signed Mantles lately and this holds there as well. As an example, I won a centered eye appealing signed 58 in REA in 2020 for 5450. A slightly lesser looking specimen just sold at a legitimate AH for over $10,000.
As to selling, almost every time I’ve sold a nice Mantle here, it’s wound up with an eye appeal sticker at PWCC and went for 2x/3x what I sold it for LOL. Lesson learned
