ft sweet caporal honus wagner authentic
 

here it is guys.
been in the family for a long time, my grandfather picked it up when he was a kid from someone in georgia. We had it authenticated in 2008, he almost auctioned it off in 2010, however he was not satisfied with the price. I dont really like honus wagner, with this in mind Im willing to trade this for some other cards. Other cards Im interested in include 52 topps mantle 51 bowman mantle, 54 dan dee mantle, goudey babe ruth, cracker jack ty cobb, hank aaron rookie and other high end cards. I dont really know what to value this card at since it is so beat up, with that in mind if my trade is way to high let me know.
Im also
thanks
andrew

Hahahaha

I've got a 1990 Score SAMMY SOSA Rookie Card if you want it...

Um.....

Also, are you a male nun?

Since you’re unaware of the value in this condition I can tell you these don’t go for very much, now if it was Heine Wagner in this shape we could talk trades.

I was thinking the same thing!

You and I need to chat on the phone, now. PM me a number to call you. If you don't you will not be allowed back on this site. thanks

Uhh.....I think he's gonna need to throw in more than just the Wagner to close that deal with you for that gem.

I emailed and PM'd this person Aclinton1107. Until he and I talk on the phone he won't be coming back. Right after I PM'd and emailed him he left the board (the little green dot is gone). I don't expect he will be back again. Thanks to those who alerted me. And if he and I talk, and he convinces me he is legit, free drinks for everyone (old enough) at the Net54 Dinner at the National. :)

For God's sake I hope he is legit :)
I kid, I kid ..... thanks for moving swiftly on this one Leon.

wagner
 

I was told 75000 would buy it. He needs the money to buy the rare cards he listed.

Leon, don't screw this up for me we are right in the middle of this deal. :( ;)

I thought he didn't know what to value the card at?? :confused:

Has anyone completed any transactions with him yet? I won a 1932 Sanella book from him in the BST Live Auctions section....

he stroked me on a handful of cards

A cj cobb may not be rare but i have Had a hell of a time finding one. :mad:

Did you receive this yet?

He contacted me about my 1956 Topps set, seemed quite interested and we negotiated a price, but never heard back.

I sold a couple T205's to him that I posted on the BST. He paid me via PayPal, then I sent the cards.

lol funny thread :)

I just spoke with him on the phone. I was reading the NY Times article to him as we were talking. He is sticking to his story. I told him as soon as he sends me a picture of him holding the card he can come back. If anyone is doing any deals with him I strongly advise not sending money or cards until this gets worked out. I really can't believe we spoke for at least 10 minutes, I told him of the nuns, how the card is a fingerprint and everything. He stuck to his story. But, I do have a real number for him now as I called and he picked up. NO one will get too scammed....sheesh...

I LOVE this forum

He tried lowballing me on some CJs a couple weeks ago. Resorted to name calling and some other juvenile behavior. Good luck on the book, I have his full name and email if needed (I guess Leons already got that?).

Steve Suckow

I figure this is front page material :) so I moved it from the BST....

Best part about his write up is he wants a $700 Dan Dee Mantle for his '06 Wagner. Seems legit.

It looks like he at least completed one solid transaction:

Why not, there has been a shortage of T206 related threads lately. :)

Way to out this Leon now everyone knows...thanks a lot. ;)

Well, I realize there is a lot of T206 talk but this is a trip. :eek:

I know John.....you had been saving your pennies and I spoiled it for you. Free drinks for you too at the Dinner....LL

I know, it was in jest.
This is Net206 isn't it?

Thread of the year......

I am waiting for the picture of the dude with the card :D

+1

I can't believe he thought he would get away with that over here.

Thanks, Leon, for moving it to the main board.

Wonka,

Any chance you have seen a picture of this guy holding the card? Would love to see the skills at work....


Best,

Andy

lol

and trust me Andy, even if he somehow came up with a picture, ...photoshop and all....I can't imagine not checking a bit deeper. I will bet a dime to a dollar (virtually only, of course) that someone on this board lives near him. In my best Col. Klink voice- "Ve have ways of making Zem talk"

No sense in having a completely useless thread :)
Would you PLEASE p.m. me if you have anything pre-1900 Tigers available?

Thanks Andy.

If andrew has it then the heritage story about the nun was fiction and the card didnt really sell-- for starters. I guess anything is possible.

I'll bet that photo will look very much like a news clipping.

I actually just won it Saturday night. So he wouldn't even be able to mail it until tomorrow. I already paid through PayPal though....

Quite possibly high as a kite:eek:

Having said that, I will reserve judgment while the OP has been given time to produce evidence that they actually have this card.

While I personally believe something is rotten in the state of Denmark here, I have been wrong before...

Steve,

Your PM box is full.....

Leon,

It must have been tough to keep from laughing when you talked to this clown.

Best,

Andy

Steve, start collecting the Cubs, Please!!!!;)

Joe

Sh*t .... my bad. I just cleaned it out. I await your message impatiently :)

Come on man ..... :)
maybe someday ...... maybe :)

It appears that I missed the thread or article about the nuns. Can someone point me in the right direction. :confused:

I am not sure how to find the Net54 thread; however, the image in this article seems pretty damning.

Best,

Does anyone know the doctor who bought it who can verify that he still has it that would put a decisive end tothis.

no need ... i can put an end to it right here:

the man died in Feb. 2010 .... WITH NO IMMEDIATE FAMILY.
not directing this towards you Peter .... i'm directing it towards the f*ucknugget that still hasnt provided us with a picture of himself with the card.

The Wagner in question:

http://sports.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleNo=7028&lotNo=80079

I almost bid on that Sanella book, but I figured I would be lucky to break even. I felt sorry for him because it seemed like he thought the book was worth quite a bit.

If andrew has it and his story is to be believed, there was one heckuva conspiracy involving heritage the nuns and dr depace. I suppose anything is possible except that both stories are true.

Steve,

I will admit, you do offer a compelling, well reasoned, and very reasonable stance. The thing I am most curious about is whether the card in question has changed hands since the auction. If not, then the OP is complete BS. If so, I will have some egg on my face, too. After all, I also threw a few barbs at him.

Best,
Eric

Leon,
Thanks for outing this apparent phony. I'm wondering if there is any card other than the Wagner that would invite this much (proper) scrutiny . . . .
Scot

Makes no difference if it changed hands later the two versions are still irreconcilable.

Soooo........any word on that picture of him and the card yet? :)

I don't know how much longer I can hold my breath.....

I am still waiting. And I am still in a bit of awe that he just played it off on the phone the way he did. I was waiting for him to start laughing and say it was a big joke but he never did. I told him over and over I was looking at the card in other places, from one of the Nun's public appearances to the NY Times, to Heritage etc... Oh well...

So here is the alternative. The real consignor is andrew's grandfather. That is boring so Heritage invents a story about nuns and gets an order of nuns to play along, or somehow feeds a phony story and phony quotes to the press who takes them at face value. The granfather or a proxy is the high bidder on a safety bid so the card does not sell and Heritage makes up a story about a nonpaying bidder. Then Heritage invents a private sale andgets amajor customer Dr. de Pace to play along. Meanwhle the card is really in Tennessee with Andrew. Ok.

Andrew, thank you. I needed a laugh today.

Seems plausible.....:cool:

So did he have a response to the evidence you shared with him? Or did he just keep telling you the same thing over and over?

Maybe Andrew hasn't responded yet because the Lord is angry with him and hath smote him down?

David

well, we asked.....

Woah!

:eek: ive got a nice 56' mantle to trade...and ill even throw in an early ruth!!!
