Ebay Item number: 221211385477

Is this card actually worth 250 000$ or close to that?

It is obvious to me that he is charging per typed word. He sure is long-winded.

It was the C$ 0.97 that cancelled the deal.

Ha Ha, the seller found the " card " at a flea market for $5.00. Makes LOTS of assumptions about the Super Monster Rare Wagner that this is in fact, a Wagner. After you buy the card, you can do the " Scientific " leg work to ensure the " card " is legit, as mentioned in a VERY long and rambling " description ". To boot, the seller also has some stained glass for sale to help you feel comfortable about ponying up a quarter of a million dollars. This guy is clearly in the know when it comes to vintage cards. Three " people " have made offers? Just when you think you may have seen it all......
