The board decide my membership. Thats not really right. I could understand if i stole from someone or sold drugs. Then i could understand a vote on membership. Makes me laugh when people that openly profit off of the hobby want to act holier than thou.

Maybe we should see a picture with wife holding the card first.

[ullmandds]

andrew...since you seem to have advanced photoshopping/computer skills...why not post a "real" photo...with a newspaper in the background...or with your "wife"...depicting the card...not a photo shopped one...and maybe we'd believe u?!

Wagner's are like fingerprints...each one is different and easily identifiable...esp the one you've chosen to "sell"...and most on this board know more about them than our "spouses!"

If no real proof is provided...I say get rid of him...there are already too many liars/cheaters/thieves in the hobby!

[Matthew H]

I say get rid of him. He just tried to scam someone out of a ton of money.

Attempting to do so is a crime btw.

[Wymers Auction]

I contacted Heritage Auction about this I doubt they will respond, but we will see.

Here is a direct quote from Heritage
Thanks for the notification—we are aware. Thankfully this guy is teeing himself up for the police by documenting his fraud. Hardly a criminal mastermind.

Best,

This all depends upon what the meaning of the word 'is' is.

You can never trust a Clinton

Before anybody complains, not trying to be political, just funny.

Amen to that.

I'm sure the good Dr. would like to know that his card is mysteriously in Nashville as well.

To Andrew's credit, when he posted the card in the B/S/T, at least he didn't claim that it's undergraded.

[npa589]

So, I leave work early for a 30 minute ride home, and this is what I missed........

Goodness gracious dude...do you not realize that you literally may go to prison???

Understatement of all time.

This might be the best thing on the net in a while. His body language even says "Man I'm screwed".

For law enforcement and any of you merry pranksters.

Wow, I just saw where I had 2 missed calls from this number! I had no clue who it was until I saw this post from Steve...incredible!

Andrew,
You are becoming the "Pete Rose" of Net54. You need to admit you made a mistake, take responsibility for your actions and move on. Maybe this started out as a joke. I don't know. Maybe you joined here a few weeks ago to get your name known and planned this "scam" all along. As an attorney, I deal with real criminals on a daily basis. Most think that they are smarter than everyone else. They find out that they are not when it is too late. Every here knows that you do not own the card. No one is going to trust you with even a small transaction in the future until and unless you can rehabilitate your reputation here. Other people who post here regularly have made mistakes in their lives and even involving the hobby and have been forgiven. Give up the nonsensical story while you can.

[Piratedogcardshows]

Das Boot.

[Wymers Auction]

Andrew I have made mistakes in my auction career. I have even made a bad decision regarding a baseball auction several years ago. I had to personally apologize to everyone and I have never violated anybody's trust again in this hobby. The cards I sell I either own or have a legally binding consignment contract with the owner to sell them. I do not know that you could find forgiveness on a blunder as big as this one, but at least save some face and just come clean.

[T206DK]

My vote

[TNP777]

I find it quite interesting that Andrew is hanging around to defend his story, despite seemingly overwhelming evidence that disputes him. We know the story doesn't stack up and his photo is laughable, yet here he is.

If it's up to the membership whether he stays or goes, I vote he stays - the better to keep an eye on him. I really want to hear the full story of this card. His unwillingness to answer blunt questions is concerning, but if he's still here perhaps he will eventually answer them.

If he would have come clean when he was first busted, I would just chalk it up to being young and immature and say give him another chance. The fact that he continues to stick to his story makes my decision pretty easy.

Edited to add: LOL at Frank's comment
