    Pretty Mays Mike. If I was the grader I'd have given it an 8 based on the fact that it may have been one of the first I've seen with no PD/snow.

    OAKESY25OAKESY25 Posts: 4,726 ✭✭✭
    wow.. that mays is for sure an 8

    << <i>How the HELL does that MAYS grade less than the REGGIE??????? >>



    Was about to ask the same thing but you beat me to it. If that Reggie is a 6.5 than the Mays is at worst an 8.

    Unless there's some surface issue with the Mays, that card is a stone cold 8. This is one of those cards where you may have to engage in grading grasturbation mulitple times to get it into the holder it deserves.

    Nice job. Mays 6, Reggie 6.5... NO WAY. Don't I remember that Mantle being on a one-day sale from Ron for around $700???

    Thanks guys - I always expect a klunker or two when grading HOFers, never thought it would be the Mays though.

    It was indeed $550. And I'm glad that Mike got 'er done! image

    PS. I believe it was Nick who first said the card had a shot at a 7.5.

    No doubt that Mays is an 8. Here's mine that graded 6:

    And that Mantle is killer - great centering.

    That would have been a 7 until the past year or so. Very nice.

    No more than Clemente though. Mays is a 7 without a doubt.

    If I am not mistaken didnt Ron Burgundy get called out for selling "over graded vintage at inflated prices" by some dweeb in NJ? I have been following along these boards for a long time now, and he always seems to put up quality scans and fair prices. Selling a raw 59 Mantle that goes 7.5 is not " over grading" nor was the price "inflated." Ijustlovecards,Ron Burgundy,Bosox, etc.. all seem to have good cards at more than fair prices!!! Congrats Bosox on the Mantle!!!! Ron keep the vintage coming !!!!!
