Speaking of Mick...

Jim,

Will the mineral spirits damage the photo at all?

Jim brings up a great point. How much did you pay for it?

[jgmp123]

$50 and a pretty nice 1974 Topps Clemente...he's a good guy and I have known him for years...the big win here is that he will gladly refund my money and will pull the Mick once I show him this feedback.

Thanks again guys!

Why would a local card dealer and good guy, sell you an authentic Mickey Mantle autographed photo (and Clemente) for only $50.00?

I find it difficult to believe that your local good guy card dealer, would let go of a authentic Mickey Mantle signed photo (and a Clemente card) for only $50.00.

I think he meant he paid $50 plus a clemente card.

Gotcha, Brock. Thank you for pointing that out.

I still find it difficult to believe the local card dealer would sell an authentic Mantle signed photo for only $50.00 and a 1974 Clemente.

I think he was looking to dump it.

Chris,

Read the post. No reason to go into attack mode.

It was the card and $50. And like I said, a good guy that knew he didn't get it in person and didn't have paperwork on the autograph (in case you still think the Clemene card and $50 is too low)

He may have been looking to dump it, but he's giving me my money back...All I said is that he is a good guy, not like the dude is family.

Sorry, James, but I tell it like I feel it.

No hard feelings...I am planning on getting the Clemente and money back tomorrow. I am going to offer him a lower amount for the photo only after I show him this forum and go with Jim's idea....do you know if Mineral Spirits would damage the photo?

I gain a nice photo and get this dud off the streets...
