Posted By: <b>Anson</b><p>It just gets worse. Someone just listed a T206 Wagner reprint for an opening bid of $1,000,000. But, did you know that it was the first baseball card ever??????? It somehow made its' way to Germany too.<br /><br />Ugh!

Posted By: <b>Bill Stone</b><p>The price is reasonable for the first card dipicting a baseball player but I will not be bidding because of the outrageous shipping fee of $100.00.

Posted By: <b>Judge Dred (Fred)</b><p>Do you know what would be real funny? If everyone from this board emailed him and told him that we also lived in Atlanta and are very interested in the card and that we would like to see it in person. It'd be like a N54 VBC frat joke. You could add variations to the email such as I'll pay you $10,000 site unseen...<br /><br />Disclaimer - meant to be a joke.

Posted By: <b>David Smith</b><p>Hello all,<br /><br />I am confident that if I bid a million $$$ and win that I will have a fake card and will be out a lot of money which I could have spent on REAL cards....(that is if I HAD a million dollars).

Posted By: <b>Dan</b><p>$1,000,000 opening bid!Since it is a fake,someone should send a million dollars worth of the same $100.00 bill copied at Office Max as payment!

Posted By: <b>Scott Forrest</b><p>I'm willing to write an article about it - it would have to be interesting. Perhaps we could park down the road from his house, and each approach as if we didn't know each other...then get into a big bidding war, letting Ted win for 5 cents.
