Last Night's Legendary Auction

[calvindog]

John, you didn't answer my question. You've repeatedly suggested that you still own that Wagner. Maybe I'm a bit obtuse to have missed your answer in your last posting, but do you still possess the card?

NO Leon, the Legendary site was wrong.

Let’s think of it this way… I got the information from a site that was inaccurate. The information may have been wrong (turned out to be). I was regurgitating their wrong information. Even though the information I had was wrong, I reiterated the info correctly. I.E… I was right! I love being right…

John,

Mazel Tov (as I say around here) for winning the Wagner. I met a guy at the show on Friday that was going to the Live auction that night. He had a gorgious T-206 near complete set, but was missing the big cards in that set. I tried to convince him to bid on the Wagner that night at the live auction, but he insisted he didn't want the Wagner that "poor" and/or "restored". I wonder if he will go after the PSA 8 one some day.

Alan, I would guess the "restored," nothwithstanding the eye appeal, probably turns a lot of purists off.

Although I guess if it's just your spare Wagner it's OK. Although we didn't get an answer to Jeff's question, I don't think...

I'm not sure why it's anyone's business if he sold his first Wagner.

Relax, Dan, I was just asking a pretty innocent question of John. I thought it was made clear by him that he still owned it and I had heard the exact opposite. I was just curious about the inconsistent things I had heard and since John seems pretty open to discussing his two Wagners in an unsolicited manner I can't imagine he'd suddenly find it offensive for me to ask about one of them. Of course, if John finds my question too prying or personal all he has to do is tell me so.
