The Nun's Wagner

[Leon]

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!

[Jacklitsch]

I tend to agree that it looks photoshopped. Slab appears a bit larger than normal.

Who's the bozo on tv?

[Shoele$$]

Thread of the year yet??......

Gotta agree though, those corners are like perfect points on that slab

Give him some points on creativity though....

the way hes holding it the holder it perfectly straight. There is no angle from the top sides of the slab or the verticle ones. Thats a perfect placement with a very steady hand

Gesh, i go to bed early one night and i miss all this.

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.

[ctownboy]

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?

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!

[novakjr]

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?

Edited to add: Damn, Peter. You beat me to it.. No pun intended.

[JollyElm]

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.

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.

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...

LOL!

Actually, you can see his hand in the mirror...........and he's not holding anything!

This is just precious.

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

Edited: Unnecessary.

[Clutch-Hitter]

I'm guessing heroin.

[ScottFandango]

gotta love how the SGC case is PERFECTLY squared to the camera...everything in that picture is disheveled except the card...
classic

Warning - do not meet this guy in person.

Seriously, if he is willing to meet you in person, and we already know that he does NOT have the card, nothing good can come from such a meeting. My best guess is that he's desperate for money (bad drug deal, gambling, who knows?) and this is a random shot he's taking. You knock on his door and there's no telling what's waiting for you.

[lsutigers1973]

Anyone know his eBay ID?
