Haven't been on in quite some time but could use some advice
This mat is in an upcoming auction. Condition is basically NOS and is mounting nicely behind glass. No yellowing at all. What would be a fair purchase price? My thinking had me possibly in the $150 range. Thoughts?

Hi, Dave. We might get surprised if this SINCLAIR mat is in a well-advertised auction, but I would be thinking in the $150 to $225 range. However, the superb condition could spur some spirited bidding from SINCLAIR collectors.. After all, this is an item you would never have to upgrade in your collection. Hard to tell these days, isn't it? Best of luck, if you decide to bid. John

Thanks for some input John. This is a different kind of auction setting. My hope is it will be a little less mainstream. I can only find one reference online which seems inflated to me. We'll see in 2 weeks what it gets but wanted some idea how high my interest should go. Any other points of view out there is still welcome.

Imo If keeping pay what your comfortable with and enjoy it. If you pay to much it doesn't matter if you like it.
