john/z28jd Id like to know who here said they might be on to something when they said race may play a factor? I think we all agree that the only factor on whether the card is real or not is the fact we all know its fake just by looking at it in scans.Its an obvious fake.
Someone is reading this board obviously so here it goes. Take the card in question and compare it to any real known t206. Comapre the borders,the printing on the card and realize it isnt the same.Go to the hall of fame, where there is a real Wagner on display(that no one has ever questioned the authenticity of ever) and compare theirs to it.Take it to any expert you want at a card show and ask them.If its real do you think a company such as Mastro would turn down the card for their auction when it would not only make them alot of money but draw a huge amount of attention towards their auction.Go to any legit auction run by card experts who actually sell cards and ask them if they want to have a card which could make them tens of thousands of dollars and get them a large amount of exposure and when they say yes,show them that card and look at their reaction. People dont see black when they sell cards for someone, they see green
If they think 100's of legit dealers are all conspiring to not make money eventho alot of them could use it,and numerous buyers with money to spare who would love to buy a Wagner, are all holding out for another one because the sellers are black, then they are crazy and dont want to hear the truth.The other problem with that thinking is that theyre saying theres no black dealers in the industry(which i know is obviously false just from going to shows) and theres no black buyers who can afford the card? which again is another false statement because we know there is,ask Dmitri Young for help and see what he says,he spends more on cards per year then most of us will in our lifetimes.
No one at our little board is trying to keep a new Wagner card out of the collecting community.If someone finds a new Wagner thats real we all want to know about it no matter who the new owner of the card is.
