A card store in Eatontown, NJ back around 1989-91, had a fake Wagner with a $50,000 price tag. If you picked it up, and flipped it over, he had another tag the said something like "$50,000 for near-mint, this card is vg, so $15"

Apparently someone saw the card, but never saw the back. They broke into his store one night and stole the card. Not 100% sure, but I believe all he lost was that card
