Default Mickey Mantle (Opinions Please, plus pricing help)

He has 72 of these total, assuming they are real what is a reasonable offer?

Really, twenty five per sig. You then resell them for fity and double your money. I would offer him fifty per right now. I think if he paid to get them certed for around thrity per they would sell for around @135 to $150. Just went on ebay to look at sold Mantle cuts. Slab sold for $150. Please advice where can buy an authentic Mantle cut for $25?

Default Mantle cuts

as a collector of cuts, gpc's and 3x5's (assuming they are good) the first thing I look for is Mattability... Second thing that I look at is size... for example a Mantle that is .5 inches by 3 inches is not going to display well in an 11x14 frame...

All that said... I agree with a lot of the above comments.
1-these look prime exemplars for custom cards...I gotta believe you would easily find a buyer in one of the big card manufacterers

2-Certed mantles on the low go for 120-140 (cuts and 3x5's rarely come up)

3-The jsa & psa's typically charge $75 on mantle but I am sure would come in at $30 a unit on a lot like this...

Thas said... If I am a seller with this amount of outlay ($2160 for authentication with a 30 day float on my money), I'd be looking to pay in the 50-60 per unit range...

I noticed one thing that no has mentioned. Some of the signitures are cut off. They should cost a lot less and will not sell for very much.

I don't think they are actually cut off. I think it's just the cropping of the photo, as the item (whatever it is exactly, looks to be a lined card or linen type of paper) is a little angled in the photo.

I am sure before anyone would make sure before I bought them.I really think that the bottom line should be max of sixty to seventy dollars.

Is this an unused, uncut sheet that were intended for the Salvino figurines?

That is what I thought but Salvino's where mostly done in white. I also understand the authenticity comes from Greer. I still think that if you pay more than seventy dollars you would be makeing a mistake. It is going to cost you 30 more if you cut a deal with the tpa/s. This is cut and dry so they really should not charge anymore than that.

these cuts or custom cards would not cost that much to authenticate with psa/dna. probably around $15 max. ted williams is on the same tier pricewise and i got a pc of his authenticating for $11.

I'd agree with you Travis if they were staying in his PC, but I have a feeling they will be split up and sold separately.

That's right, and all it takes is for SOME to think this in order to raise the selling price.

In other words, TPA certs raise selling prices, no matter how much Travis dislikes the fact.
