The Nun's Wagner
1 Attachment(s)
So our poster who has the Wagner would like to come back on the board. I think he wants to explain himself. I didn't want the other thread being able to be edited, for the moment, so this thread. And I am going to reinstate Andrew and we can take it from there....Not sure how else to accomplish letting him back and protecting the other thread's posts.

Clearly Photoshopped. Look at the slab. The corners are square. Come on!

I tend to agree that it looks photoshopped. Slab appears a bit larger than normal.
|
Who's the bozo on tv?
|
Even if it is photoshopped, this is a trade you are obviously going to do in person. If he doesn't have the card, he won't get yours.
I would encourage him to post a 5-10 second video with the card. |
I'm pretty sure I know who manufactured that dresser.
|
1) If he owns the card then what is the story behind it?
2) Why he is willing to sell it for $75,000 when the last sale, to the Dr. in Philadelphia, was for $220,000? David |
That's pretty cool how the slab sticks to his fingers like that without his fingers really touching the sides. Is he Spider-Man? But, like, TINY Spider-Man, since the slab is almost as big as his entire face.
I don't know what Heritage was thinking; nuns consigning a card is nowhere NEAR as interesting as Tiny Spider-Man consigning it. -Al |
Thread of the year yet??......:)
Gotta agree though, those corners are like perfect points on that slab :rolleyes: Give him some points on creativity though.... |
I Dont know...the kids room is a mess! Clothes on the floor...lotion and paper towel near the tv...he doesnt look like the cool kid on the boat surrounded by hotties?!
I bet wags is sticky!:confused: |
Look at the reflection in the back mirror...see anything? If he was indeed holding the card it would show up in the mirror in the background...
|
Hmmm! 3 bottles of lotion, a roll of paper towels, what appears to be some sort of gay porn-star on the tv, and the complete and total look of shame on his face.. I wonder what's going on there?:eek::eek::eek:
Edited to add: Damn, Peter. You beat me to it.. No pun intended. |
Whenever you scan an SGC slab, there are certain glare marks around the edge of the holder from the scanner. If you blow up his pic and compare the Wagner he is holding to the Wagner in the original pics, the glare marks are identical.

t 206 honus wagner
leon let me back on the board. I didnt know this was worth as much as it is. with this in mind i am going to list the card if i do somewhere else. I didnt mean to stir up this amount of chaos as I do use this board alot and am always diligent in my transactions.
thanks andrew |

The card holder edges--top, bottom and side to side--are perfectly parallel to the top, bottom and sides of the picture he submitted.
PERFECTLY PARALLEL. A PERFECT RECTANGLE. I used the selection tool in photoshop (dotted line) to illustrate the point in this blow-up. So the Wagner is absolutely flat in reference to the photographer's vantage point. That occurring naturally is as close to impossible as you can get. I don't know the guy, so I lack a horse in this race, but he obviously held something (perhaps a graded card), took a picture and then superimposed a 'professional' scan of the Wagner in front of it. |
If you're gonna try to scam someone, do it up right. Let me help you out, bro...

Seems legit. It really is the little things in life that make me happy. I've got a two hour ride home right now and this thread should make it bearable.

Damn, he's got some sweet stuff!! :eek: :eek: :eek:
|
I was hoping someone would post a picture of the "Topps" kid (kid on the topps wax cases I believe). holding up the card in a "wow" fashion and then superimpose the Wagner.

LOL Chuck.

LOL! :D Actually, you can see his hand in the mirror...........and he's not holding anything! This is just precious. |
I wonder if he'll take a Cobb bat off Sweet Cap for the Mona Lisa......
|
Vampire card! I'm smelling a twilight sequel!
|
Guys, guys, guys, don't you get it? He owns a VAMPIRE T206 Wagner!!!! You can see it when you look at it but its reflection wont appear in a mirror......
David |
Check out the Tobacco BST section. He has decided to list it somewhere else.
|
Edited: Unnecessary.
|
If it ever makes it to auction, there had darn well better be full transparency, not any of that whack-ass semi-transparency that litters eBay.

I'm willing to bet the real owner of that card has it sitting in a safety deposit box somewhere, and not in a house with minimalistic furniture and dirty socks on the floor.
|
i didnt realize this card was worth that much, I did not photoshop... i will be putting this card up... and indeed if a deal was done we would do it in person.... im always diligent in my transactions in here.
thanks andrew |
I bet you the iceberg that sunk the Titanic is stashed in the freezer.
|
Seriously though Andrew, are you just bored or something?

Haven't you heard that TV adds 10 lbs? Andrew is clearly the very successful cardiologist with millions of dollars of memorabilia in a highly organized, and well-kept show room! The game worn Gehrig jersey is under the lotion.

He also has the "missing" white suit Ray Lewis was wearing the night of the Super Bowl murders if anyone is interested? |

And here are Ray Edwards and John Cobb to present you with the Scam of the year Award...
