Default Impact of the Card

Posted By: davidcycleback

I don't know how the sale or state of a $2 plus million card effects the
value of cards most people buy and sell. It's like wondering how revelations
about the Hope diamond will effect the sales of earrings at Target. The PSA 8
Wagner is an aberration in more ways than one, living under its own rules,
and I don't think it should be taken as a bellweather for 1965 Topps.

Besides rumors about trimming et al were widespread long before the card sold
for $2+ million, and long before it sold for $1+ million. Likely the buyers
and sellers had heard them and taken them into consideration. I don't see
how putting the stories in to book form changes things much.
