not sure if I've ever seen a graded Mantle that was worse looking.

    That is one nasty card. I can't believe someone is going to pay that much for it. Wow.

    I wouldn't have that up my butt if I had room for two of them.

    I'd cross it to a PSA holder first if I were gonna try to put it up my butt.

    WOW! THE MICK is my ALL TIME favorite ... but WHAT A WASTE OF MONEY

    EDITED TO ADD: If I had to keep the card (in other words I could not turn it over for a profit) I would not pay $500 for that card.

    There are no ugly 52 Mantles. Just some have been handled more than others.

    Over $1,300 already. That's insane. I'd love to have one, but I don't want one enough to pay that kind of money for part of a card.
