It will be interesting to see where it lands.

Personally, I think $5 million is an optimistic estimate, but I guess we'll see eventually.

A PSA 2 offered for 1.5mm in a PSA group. The cert looks legit and the seller is requiring lawyers on both sides. I'm not in the group, but a buddy sent the screenshot. I will attempt to attach.

Obviously a very generous 2. Price seems too good to be true? Anybody know the seller? Is there any way this is legit?

On a side note, anybody know if Paypal would let me send 1.5MM?

Looks like you would have to break it up into a lot of smaller transactions:

Did anyone from the facebook group buy this Wagner?

How could it not be legit? Dude even wrote his name on a paper towel!

Confirmed to be fake. It was the guys first ever post in a group.

Thanks for the update - that's the problem with not being in the group - you can't look for those red flags. A closer inspection of the card relative to the actual PSA slabbed card also showed it wasn't the same card - fooled me with a cursory glance though.

Did the seller really think they would get away with something of this scale - especially when they are calling for lawyers to get involved. Just a joke/spam post?

Mile High’s restored T206 Wagner went for $1.98MM last night, which is only $12k above its last sale. With that in mind, how does the unaltered Wags do in Goldin?

So the consignor probably lost money, once you factor in selling costs, as my guess is that Mile High is taking more than 0.6% on the sale. For that matter, it was probably just one bid increment below an outright decline in the previous selling price.

From what I’ve heard around here, if it had gone for one bid increment less, this would have been the first time in history that a Wagner had re-traded for less than its previous selling price.

I am guessing not. Logic would dictate 0%, and likely a chunk of the BP to the seller as well. If I had to guess, the seller netted closer to $200K over what the card sold for the last time.

Not following your math, the $1.98m included the BP, so even with no seller fee and 15% of the BP back to seller was still below the last sale (purchase) price.

Sincerest apologies. Should have looked more into the details. Forgive me.

anyone see the signed Mantle (my old one) which went for 50% of the last sale?

I was watching that one, and very very close to putting in a bid. But alas, the eye appeal for me was just too much to overcome. But it’s a great card being signed and decently centered. Congrats to whomever got it and for that price is probably over the moon, I think it was an awesome buy.

Quite a drop. Over what time period?
