And a SGC 6 couldn't even get a 40k opening bid. Are we seeing a price correction on the 52 Topps Mantle?

I am waiting to see the spin from the folks who think a 7 is a 200K card before commenting.

Plus that 7 is not in a PSA slab and not centered. |

Anyone who bought a 52 Topps Mantle over this past summer might want to buy a second one now and dollar cost average. Better yet maybe wait until March when they can get an even better deal. Yikes. That was a pretty nice SGC 84 too.

Heritage has a PSA 8 coming up in February. We will see if the card is still strong at the top end. Last edited by rats60; 12-13-2016 at 07:31 PM. |

In fairness, the 6 didn't hit reserve, but it had 4 bids, I think the website just defaults to the opening (40) when it doesn't sell.

What would that sgc 6 brought 6 months ago?

The 84 does look like a Rosen find card. As for the 8, I think it will do well. Think that part of the market is still holding, at least on that card.

I think there will be lulls or corrections occasionally but I don't think the card will ever fall out of favor by the collector or investor. 2 recent sales, not that they necessarily reflect anything, but these cards never fail to sell no matter how many are available. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1952-Topps-M...vip=true&rt=nc http://www.ebay.com/itm/351930771313...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Yeah, certainly they aren't garnering the prices like they did back in the summer, but that also can be said about most cards that were selling for huge money back then too.
Like many have noticed "I can't give cards away" currently there is a definite lull happening, imo. But, being not near as knowledgeable as most on here, is this normal for this time of year, or does this happen occasionally where product/listings slow down? I have noticed only 3-4 pages on E-Bay of 52 Topps cards where I normally see over double that, or at least 10 pgs of listings.

'52 Mantle isn't quite Tulip Mania, imho. "Pet Rock" maybe, but no way Tulip Mania.
....Great looking examples still bring strong prices, relative to their grade. Visual appeal sells '52 Mantles in the upper ends of their brackets to the lower ends of the few brackets above them..Individual examples can be shown to sway any discussion. again, just my opinion... Quote:

not a huge drop...within 20% (and maybe just 1 or 2 bidding slots.)...if i saw it go down by 50% than that would be newsworthy..the card can easily go up 20% now from the last sale, also need more than one sale for a trend.....time will tell Last edited by 1952boyntoncollector; 01-29-2017 at 10:09 PM. |

http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?LH_Co...le+psa&_sop=13 Lately, the SGC examples have been selling for less than their PSA counterparts.....very recently two SGC 2.5s sold for $14k and less. Perhaps the correction is only on SGC copies and not PSA copies....maybe it is time to buy SGC and send to PSA. http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_udlo...le%20sgc&rt=nc Last edited by savedfrommyspokes; 12-14-2016 at 07:27 AM. |

On the lower end the prices seem to have more to do with the cards presentation than the grade.

For sure, I agree....a few of the SGC cards that recently ended on ebay suffered from poor centering, however, one of the SGC 2.5s (sans a light stain) appeared sharp and the SGCs from the Goodwin auction seemed to present strongly, but all fell short of other similar graded, sharp looking PSA copies.
