Nope, the Gretzky/McNall Wagner was on ebay for one of its sales. Ebay used to offer auctions linked to live auctions. A pretty good cross promotion, although I don't know how effective it was.

The Ebay offering of that one used a picture display that was singularly horrible. A tiny scan, with a zoom window that only allowed viewing of about 1/4 of the card at any given time. Similar to Ebays current zoom function, but without an option of viewing one large image.

My thought at the time was that it was incredibly lame. They had a $1Million minimum bid but couldn't be bothered to make a decent scan.
