Default Will the owner re-slab the Wagner?

There have been a few guesses as to how the Mastro indictment will affect the Wagner. Barry's response to the main indictment post got me thinking that a poll might be interesting.

Personally, I don't think the card will be re-slabbed, or that the value will be affected. It might be many years before we get the answer to the 'value' question, but curious what people think about re-slabbing and PSA compensation.

It's very possible the current owner would refuse to do it, as is his prerogative. Or maybe he bought it because he wanted to own the best baseball card in existence, and now he will realize it isn't. So PSA or the seller or the previous owner has to compensate him big time, and then he can have it reholdered. It's still a gorgeous card and would sell for a whole lot of money. But not for millions, and not as a NR MT/MT.

If the hobby is to be purged of all this garbage, that card has to be a part of it.
