New to Board - Few Questions - '52 Mantle

[pawpawdiv9]

According to a recent REA spring figures, they had several 52 micks in low-grade.
They had a sgc20/1.5 that sold for 4,750, which i thought was a steal, belive a fellow board member was flipping it, Then there was a (recolored) PSA authentic that sold for 4k, Then there was a PSA2(mk) that sold for 5.5k, And another PSA 1.5 sold for 8.5k that had tape residue on the 4 corners.
Based on those numbers, you need to save 5k to find a decent one with somewhat 40/60 centering. I seen 2's fetch 9k+ Unheard of right?
Have you seen the ugly white rubbed-out mustache one yet? The wash machine one has seen its day i belive, after changing hands a few times, doubt it sell for that 8k mark
Good Luck, if need advice, you came to the right place bro.
