Do you think this is a real T206 Honus Wagner?

Definitely fake but I don't buy this story. This guy is a new member who just signed up a couple of days ago and he's asking if a Wagner is good that someone is offering to him?? Strange....

A bit strange. If there were someone who wasn't seeking, but just stumbled across a Wagner while sifting through books, and came onto this site to ask, I could see that.....But to be "desperately trying to find" implies some knowledge of what you are looking for, but yet can't spot the most obvious of common reprints?? If I am desperate for anything I would do a little more homework.

The hunt continues....Jace, no offense and good luck, but you would be well served studying the endless volumes that have been written on the Wagner on this site, and soak up the knowledge of the forum before you step out into the Wild unarmed an unprepared.

I agree something doesn't add up. Why would someone looking for a card that sells for 400k minimum be trying to find one ungraded?

If you are willing to spend money on a Wagner, at least do a little homework. Spend ten bucks on a loupe and compare the Wagner to a $10 T206 common. Invest another $15 on a black light.

How many REAL Wags have been sold on ebay (graded or not)? How many times has someone purchased a raw Wags on ebay and had it come back as real from a reliable grader (SGC or PSA, for example)?

If I had one I don't think I would broadcast it either .
