Maybe I’m having a hard time understanding. You sent a photo to another member which the Wagner was graded Authentic and in an older psa holder. Then you are saying that the original owner removed it from the holder to remove the paint. This was listed for sale by you about 5 years ago from the scd link. So is it currently in a psa holder or was it removed from the holder? Because if this card was removed from the case then it is actually a raw card. And if it was done before you purchased it then you may have a fake card with a real label. Just trying to clarify because the story is a little unclear.

So the card we have now is original and it looks amazing. A PSA 2 Wagner sells for 900k+ now, and this card would be a PSA 2. Also, the reason we have had the card for so long is because we have not been trying to shop it. Again, we had a retail store gottahaveit! and the card was perfect for eye candy, we also went to a lot of shows. After 25 years, the retail store had to be closed so now we are trying to activity shop it. This is a great investment because Wagners are just getting more and more expensive.

I thought he was giving the history of the card prior to it grading Authentic.

I just spoke with the seller (Dylan) on the phone for a few/several minutes. I think he is selling what he says he is, maybe some of the things are on consignment. As I don't personally know him I can't vouch for him but he seems legit to me. If anyone buys the Wags please don't just send a money orde for 700k > DO your due diligence but he seems fine to me,. Good luck, Dylan.

It says “after he saw the altered rating he removed it”. The photo shown of the card in the holder has damage to the edges of the holder. I’m thinking this is a raw card.

He also says "Graded Authentic" and "it says altered." Pretty ambiguous. Maybe it was resubmitted?

That’s what I originally thought. After I closely read every word I am thinking otherwise. It’s an odd thing for a music store to have the greatest baseball card ever. I would have sold it immediately to buy some rare music memorabilia. It’s like me having Hendrix’ strat as a decoration. But being ungraded may explain why the item hasn’t been brought to an auction house. Maybe the op wants to chime in to clarify?

Ok. Now please clarify. Is the card sealed in a psa holder?

The card is under consignment yes, as we know a lot of people and for the right price we have some amazing items that the same guy would sell. The retail store closed down, so now we are actively trying to shop the card. Again, we have been in the business for 25+ years, we know a lot of people. There are two owners, one is sports focused, one is rock and roll focused, so thats why we have a card like this, which again is under consignment.
