Johnny- back in 1986, I purchased the Wagner top row, fifth from the right, with the upper left corner missing for around $8500. Wish I kept it.

The corner missing might keep it below a million dollars today.

Tim-
We all come here to collect. IF there was NO negativity then it could be boring but I have to agree, less is better!!

Barry-

as everyone knows, owning a Wagner is my lifes goal(as crazy as it may sound)......I came close as a kid......I dream about it all day long.....hoping one day my dream will come true....

the card you had was gorgeous!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love them original....the corner missing gives it character to me!!! id take the 1/2 wagner or even the die cut one......

I actually can't imagine how you feel.....it's probably one of the biggest regrets of your life...I am so sorry......if it means anything, you probably had to do what you had to do at the time....I wish you could get another.....and then please remember me in your will......just having said you had owned one is amazing....you are a true living legend, a legendary card like wagner needs to be with you.....


email me if you ever want to chat, i'll give you my cell.....I will be your support on this one

Till you get a real one maybe try a cheap reprint or a nice Custom with a business card back. I done the second with one of my favorite error cards.

It's okay that I sold it. I doubled my money in a short period of time, and I needed that money then. If you think about it, anyone who sold any rare card years ago sold it way too soon compared to what it is worth today. We are all in the same boat.

A belated welcome to the board, Tim.

I haven't really seen much in the way of negativity outside of the norm - or any real par-for-the-course drama. Certainly, the fake auto thread is a kick in the crotch, especially for those with a lot of $$ invested, but that's just horrible news. But what would this place be without Ted and Pat doing their usual dance, or people ragging on the TPGs? Trust me, when the real negativity hits, you will definitely know it. Cheers!
