You suddenly reminded me of Alan "Mr. Mint" Rosen buying Charlie Sheen's stolen T206 Wagner for $13k, and then telling the FBI that he didn't know it was hot! That's what this feels like here, and appears that David Hall, or even PSA is trying to reinvent themselves - or at the very least, trying to fool a new generation of collectors that - "There's nothing to see here folks, move along" Frank Drebin style!

What year was any Wagner last $13K? Not at any time when Sheen was buying!

No, you'd have to go back to 1985 for a 13k T206 Wagner. That's the price Rosen paid for Sheen's lifted Wagner at the All-Star Cafe. I forgot the date of that theft. Since Rosen is dead now, he cant threaten to sue me
