But then, POW, that sucker took off to heights that I never expected; reminds me of the type 2 W600 Wagner that sold a few months ago (for $100k more than the more desirable and higher graded type 1 sold for on Thursday). I just think sometimes people get caught up in the rush (seems that’s what happened with the Cobb red Hindu also, among others). I have been guilty of that - more times than I care to admit.

But the series 150 is not THAT rare (not like the Wajo BL 460), and this sale will likely draw a few out. And I will be waiting....!!
If you want rare back top HOF T206’s you either have to pay up or be ok with looking at it in someone else’s collection. When the PSA 2 Wagner sells for over 1.2M in Mile High this fall, and it will, we’ll all be saying the same thing until it sells for 1.5 the next time. Unfortunate perhaps but reality.

I agree with Scott it is a very scarce card and if 2 or more collectors want a 150 subset they need this card and dont know when another is coming up. And that is the formula for a new record sale.

The cards I have done the best on are the ones I thought I totally overpaid for. Big boy cards cost big boy $$, no doubt.

Every card I buy now I think I overpay and just figure there will be someone as dumb as me to buy it down the road. Except the W600 Wagner on Thursday. After the previous sale I thought this one was reasonably priced.

I strongly echo Jeff’s sentiment - you got one SUPER DEAL on getting that Type 1 Wagner for &180K! It’s his TRUE ROOKIE, there are only 3 Type 1s known and the eye appeal is outstanding! Sincere congrats on a world-class pickup!

Major congrats! That’s a whale of a card. I also thought that compared to previous it was a reasonable price.
