T206: What is this thing?

[drc]

That's the label term they've used for a long time on rejected cards. I agree it should be changed to be more clear.

i have been watching it. i wasent so sure what the deal with it was. Im glad i saw this. I just reported the listing, not sure if it will do any good. But it most of us do it might have impact

I should buy a bunch of "distressed" Wagner reprints for ~ $0.50/ea, poke a hole over his face, and submit to PSA for the nice label they're issuing for fakes.

Seems to boost the price of reprints handsomely, doesn't it? The fake Wagner is going for 10x the amount of a 206 common!

Technically the seller is being 100% transparent with this auction. He has worded it so that eBay has no justifiable reason to take it down. After all, ? AUTHTCT is PSA saying that it's a fake -- a $0.02 reprint.

Totally irrational for this fake to sell for $1,000 (at the pace its going).

anyone else notice it was removed? good thing it was, think was at around $500 last i saw it

I'm probably not the only one, but I reported it to eBay this morning. Obviously intentional deception by the seller.

I think it should've been allowed to sell.

Anyone dumb enough to think they're getting a real Wagner for $500 deserves to lose their $500.

Anyone making purchases inside the hobby for $500 that is so uneducated, that they'd be willing to buy that reprint, I think deserves to lose their money.

It's not as if the seller was lying, he was misleading maybe a little, but he wasn't calling it authentic.

While there is a "sucker born every minute," I will attempt to step in if I think deception is in play. I still had the page cached in my browser:

T206 PIEDMONT - HONUS WAGNER

PSA "? AUTHTCT"

This card is in poor shape. Missing pieces from the bottom left of the card and multiple creases along with a piece of the card torn off where Wagner's face would be. I believe the card to be authentic but I'll let you you be the judge!!

This card will not last long. Still in the original PSA holder they returned the card in. I will also include the original Packing Slip PSA sent back with the card back in mid-2009.

Please see pics. Any questions don't hesitate to ask.
