T206 Wagner Consigned to Goldin

It will be interesting to see where it lands.

Personally, I think $5 million is an optimistic estimate, but I guess we'll see eventually.

A PSA 2 offered for 1.5mm in a PSA group. The cert looks legit and the seller is requiring lawyers on both sides. I'm not in the group, but a buddy sent the screenshot. I will attempt to attach.

Obviously a very generous 2. Price seems too good to be true? Anybody know the seller? Is there any way this is legit?

On a side note, anybody know if Paypal would let me send 1.5MM?

Looks like you would have to break it up into a lot of smaller transactions:

Regarding the PSA 2 on Facebook, the last reported sale of this card was in 2019 for $1,353,625 by Mile High. Given the market since then, seems like $1.5M is a good deal if legit.

As for the Wagner consigned to Goldin, it hasn't been reported sold since 2010.

Did anyone from the facebook group buy this Wagner?

[Cory]

Someone posted "Sold" underneath it. So maybe? I think I'm getting info 3rd hand - so take it with a grain of salt.

If in fact it is Steve Hart he is completely legit.

[BillyCoxDodgers3B]

Seems ridiculous to offer that via Facebook. Just silly. Leaving lots of money on the table by not going through the auction house of your choice, letting them battle it out to give you the best deal. Either a really bad scam or a ridiculous joke. The very dark coloring, not to mention the name and date written on a piece of the quicker picker upper does make me feel that this could be legit, however.

I always take my Wagz into the bathroom, too.

How could it not be legit? Dude even wrote his name on a paper towel!

Confirmed to be fake. It was the guys first ever post in a group.

Thanks for the update - that's the problem with not being in the group - you can't look for those red flags. A closer inspection of the card relative to the actual PSA slabbed card also showed it wasn't the same card - fooled me with a cursory glance though.

Did the seller really think they would get away with something of this scale - especially when they are calling for lawyers to get involved. Just a joke/spam post?

First red flag is "why are you posting a pic of a T206 Wagner taken in a bathroom?"

Reminds me of the guy on here who was selling a Wagner and posted a pic of it photoshopped in his hands from his bedroom. Maybe another member can post that famous shot.
