What I like the best about the video is that they pull the card out of a brown paper grocery bag. If I thought I was carrying a $300k item I would not carry it in a grocery bag.

I watched the show last night, and agree that it was too long. They probably could've done the show in a half hour.

They showed a preview for next weeks episode, and it was the Wagner card.

Reminder for those interested. I'm sure this Wagner segment airs tonight at 9pm on CNBC.

That card's like a fine wine. I equate their card to be the equivalent of mad dog, and these clowns are the wino's of the collecting world. Of course they'd have it in a brown bag...

It looks like they might crack it. There is a photo on their Facebook page showing a pair of hands in white gloves holding the raw card. No way can they possibly find this to be legit. I can't wait to watch tonight!

Here is the picture from their Facebook page (that I referenced above).

yes...the card looks so real in that pic...easy to see what all of the controversy is about?!

Ray looks guilty even talking about that garbage card and sweet holder.

My faith in reality TV has been restored! If they had found it real I would never consider watching that show again. Back looks real but still wrong in some way, the front is not right at all for the set. Wish I had a real Wagner to compare it to (Honus not Heinie of course)!

Do you think he was surprised when the grading guy showed up to open it? I thought they were going for "guess we'll never know" by keeping it in the case but was hard to argue for not opening it at that point.

When they showed the card in the beginning you saw the edge and it looked glued together.
