according to my records, the last "Authentic" Wagner to sell at auction, was in November 2010. It was auctioned off by heritage. With the buyer's premium, the card sold for $262,900.00. In my opinion the Goodwin card was in better shape and presented better.
There was a lot more media stories about the Heritage card than this time.
Do the readers here feel the market may have peaked for lower-end Wagner cards and the price of "Authentics" and PSA-1 Wagners are coming down?
Or is it a reflection on bigger auction houses with more resources achieving better results than smaller auction houses?
I had a few high end items in an auction house recently and was very disappointed with their marketing, and PR-work. They seemed to do very little effort in getting the word out about my items and other items in their auction. I believe the prices realized reflected their failures and lack of effort.
Was the lack of coverage outside our hobby a factor in this Wagner selling for so much less?
No I think it was because the other ones proceeds were going to charity.
