Six-figure Mantle, $1 audio system

😂😂😂

[@Mclark112522]

I just got back into this hobby after about 25 years and it is mind boggling they stuff these cards into those terrible sleeves! Card saver they are not! I would have never used those things due to the potential for damage to the card in either putting it in or getting it out!! That Mantle would have went in a massive hard case

[@dannybrassem6947]

Why don’t we get to see the card right when it gets pulled? Also, its OC.

[@chaystout8971]

So what was card 18?😂

THUMBS UP for the AWESOME CARDS ..THUMBS DOWN for the guys pulling these treasures ...unreal no gloves ...

[@geoopolis]

Where’s the camera? Why aren’t the cards revealed face down?

[@BOOBOOO96]

The card is up for auction now, at 45K nowhere near the PSA value of 25K, that was a good buy in never to happen again. They advertise buy ins for possible PSA 10 values, less than 1% grade that high. Modern breakers like Layton Sports Cards you got a 99% chance at PSA 10's.

Who in the world allowed these guys to touch these cards without gloves, and also put it in a penny sleve before the hard case. GEEZ

Bradley Jones ya not the best way to handle them haha

[@TrueDuckFan]

Lol, I believe there going straight to Grading and they like to receive them in those specific style sleeves

[@acjohn6995]

@@TrueDuckFan Don't human hands have oils and such on them? Should have gloves.

[@kevingeorge548]

There not penny sleeves!! They are Card Saver 2. That's the way you send them to PSA. Also, you don't need gloves for older cards unless you just ate and didn't wash your hands. These aren't refractors. You must be a modern card collector!!!!

[@Card_Asylum]

@@kevingeorge548 in a sleeve inside the card saver. 🤦 Hopefully a year later you've learned that 😜

How can there be so many unopened packs of 1955 Bowman...it makes no sense...I have seen 100+ of these videos...

[@Card_Asylum]

None of those cards will grade high with these chimps handling them. 🤦

The Mantle was a 9..

[@omgDavidGlasper]

@@mariomanti-gualtiero1228 PSA wont give a 10 if fingerprints are on the card.

[@mariomanti-gualtiero1228]

@@omgDavidGlasper That’s why you don’t eat chicken before you handle a card. If your hands are clean, you’re fine on a vintage card. It’s really rare for vintage cards to get a 10 just because of the manufacture process, but it does happen.

SO FAKE............

holy shit vince vaughn just blew out the audio system

Why isn’t he wearing gloves?

come on, put some gloves on. These guys are annoying

[@WildBillsCollectables-cz7dl]

Yea right weirdos

[@drewbravo7432]

Imagine if the Mantle winner had hesitations in buying in that spot. And also 👍 for Mantle not being in the title.

[@frankiegee6135]

Old cardboard degrades extremely easily. The natural oils in your skin will leave finger prints on those beautiful cards.

[@uy7munir]

sickening to watch these foools

[@mariomanti-gualtiero1228]

That’s BS. Anyone that knows cards knows that you must never wear gloves when handling cards. You’re more likely to damage a card if you wear gloves and it’s not necessary. Look at cards that have been handled a lot and you won’t see any degradation from skin oils. As long as your hands are clean and dry, you’re good.

[@Ynalaw]

As an auto mechanic who never washes his hands, all my cards smell, taste and look like Pennzoil. I like my cards raw; same way I eat hamburgers.

[@omgDavidGlasper]

@@mariomanti-gualtiero1228 Dont get the card graded then because PSA uses black lights to test for fingerprints.

[@panteracfh2198]

Hello everyone. I'm looking for donations of any and every card that u guys would want to part with. Junk wax preference. 80s & 90s. My families home burnt down last October and my 30 yr collection was lost. Hoping my fellow collectors will help me out with some 88 donruss or any junk wax era cards. Their my favorite cards. Thanks again. God bless

[@demo_lover]

No gloves? Were penny sleeves out of stock? Horrible job. Nice Mantle.

[@mariomanti-gualtiero1228]

Lol. All these comments about gloves from people that don’t know anything about cards has me laughing. Clean and dry hands is the way professionals handle cards. You’re more likely to damage a card if you wear gloves.

[@demo_lover]

@@mariomanti-gualtiero1228 How? Professional? I guess skin oil does not exist for these fellas?

[@mariomanti-gualtiero1228]

@@demo_lover Watch any professional card grader handle a million dollar card. They’ll never wear gloves. Or better yet, look at cards that have been handled a lot. You’ll never see damage from skin oils, it just doesn’t happen. Unless you just ate a bucket of chicken or something. It’s standard practice and recommended to only handle cards with clean, bare hands. Ask a professional grader.

[@mariomanti-gualtiero1228]

@@demo_lover A card saver with no penny sleeve is how PSA recommends you send it to them.

[@demo_lover]

@@mariomanti-gualtiero1228 You're wrong. This is directly from PSA's website on how to submit cards. "Place each item in a protective flexible pouch (Ex. Card Saver I®). The flexible pouch you choose must be sturdy enough to allow us to remove the item safely. For the protection of your items, you may want to insert your cards/tickets into a soft card sleeve or mylar before inserting into the Card Saver. PSA advises against submitting in top loaders, hard acrylic cases or screw down holders. Submissions received in these types of cases will experience delays in processing and the cases will not be returned with your submission."

[@MotU91775]

Yeah but a surgeon would wear gloves.

[@mariomanti-gualtiero1228]

Gloves would be a bad idea. No professional in the industry would wear gloves when handling cards.

[@James-ft4bu]

Guys need to spice it up. Too many people on camera, its awkward. Too much dead time and passing to others, makes video drag. Could go on overall what should have been exciting was just weird. Maybe 6 min worth of content here. Best of luck.
