I have a 52 Mantle in a SGC 4 holder. Luckily I live in Southern California and can do a walk in service with PSA. Unfortunately they just raised their Premium service to $700 (from $500). I should have done it in August when I intended to. Also, don't feel bad about a 4. Mine doesn't have any creases or marks, and superb color and centering - but I guess the touched corners are the reason.
So, hopefully my 4 will give you assurance that there is nothing wrong with a 3-4.

I can see the small crease across the top corner border, and I can see the corners are soft. But there isn't even a crease on the other three cards yet you grade them the same? I am not arguing with any of your positions I just don't understand this whole grading thing. He also has the other version of the Mantle with the full black border around the logo. Is there any premium to that?
