The centering isn't great, but it looks pretty nice. I have wanted one of these for a while and with the MS LIVE deal it is pretty attractive. I just want to make sure you guys don't see anything odd about it... i checked his feedback and looks like nothing recent in cards...just a couple of coins...

Personally, I don't see anything wrong with the card or the seller however the last two on ebay sold for under $700 without the microsoft cashback. I would probably wait or try to get the seller to lower the buy it now price some. Just my .02.

Looks good to me. I'd ask for a scan of the back, but nice card & decent price. Good luck.

I'll have a PSA 3.5 in my posession at the beginning of the week with great centering and perfect color that I will set up as a "buy it now" on ebay for you for $725. With the cashback it would only cost you $525. As soon as I get it I'll post or send you scans.

When using the live.com discount I always try to tailor my purchases to the percentage so as to receive the largest percentage off. For example:

When the discount is 25% with a $200 maximum allowable I will look for something in the $800 and under range.
When the discount is 30% with a $200 maximum allowable I will look for something in the $665 and under range.

I understand that you will be getting $200 off the price of the 1953 Mantle, but because his buy it now price is $895 you are really only getting about 22% off when you pay the $695. Don't get me wrong, 22% off is not bad at all, but it's not the full 30% discount.
