the lowest I will go for the mantle is 500.00 and contrary to mr educated opinion-it is easily a psa8 as I have seen a lot of graded cards-it seems this is more a trade for nothing site than a place where people want to buy quality cards
Since you're so sure it will grade an 8, send it in. A PSA 8 1960 Topps Mantle would be a hot commodity on Ebay and would fetch around $600, give or take. A win-win for you.
I mean, you'd do so much better that way rather then wasting your time on a trade for nothing site.
EDIT: Just to familarize you with how things work, in case you were unaware. Nobody here is naive or unknowledgable about this hobby, whether it be football, baseball, basketball or whatnot. If they don't know there are many members here with years of experience that are willing to help by offering their advice and opinions.
With that said, nobody is going to buy an ungraded card at graded prices. Period. They will however, more than likely be willing to buy a raw card at raw prices.
Your ungraded Mantle will fetch $250-$300 max.
And certainly no one will buy an ungraded 1960 Topps card expecting it to grade a PSA 8 simply because the seller says so.
Good luck to you with whatever you decide to do with your cards.
