“The Nun’s Wagner” is an extreme example of a BST thread gone wild.

There are other, less bizarre cases. Point is, yes, it has happened before.

Classic thread.

His original post, which did not include the photo (that came later):

"here it is guys.
been in the family for a long time, my grandfather picked it up when he was a kid from someone in georgia. We had it authenticated in 2008, he almost auctioned it off in 2010, however he was not satisfied with the price. I dont really like honus wagner, with this in mind Im willing to trade this for some other cards. Other cards Im interested in include 52 topps mantle 51 bowman mantle, 54 dan dee mantle, goudey babe ruth, cracker jack ty cobb, hank aaron rookie and other high end cards. I dont really know what to value this card at since it is so beat up, with that in mind if my trade is way to high let me know."

This was by far the best thread ever on here. The guy wasn't even hiding his paper towels and lotion

Don't forget that BST thread from RB where he tried to sell a Red Cobb/ Lenox for an entire year.

Wow...that description alone is ridiculous but along with the picture...I can see why the meme has lived on.

Seems like a shit show waiting to happen and bad listings sitting at the top of the page due to constant bumps for correction or arguments.

I would rather have a rule that if comps are listed they must be the most recent 5 or 7 for the same card with same grade and sale date with grading service listed. If it’s not and selective comps are given the thread is locked.

Try using selective comps and not the newest most similar on a mortgage underwrite and you have a rejection from the investor. No pick and choose.

Why is it that sellers show 2 or 3 recent sales of similar item BUT when their item sells they delete or don’t list the “sold” price. That would be the most recent comp, right?

I didn't read every post in this thread so this may have been mentioned. There have been several times that I saw someone list a card for sale here that they just bought from one of the auction houses. So, if someone lists a card for $2000 here and I see that they bought it a few weeks ago for $1400 can I post that info?
