    A company (When It Was A Game) that allegedly played games with their customers by taking high-grade cards out of slabs and substituting lower quality cards and reselling them as genuine. Then, presumably, the high-grade cards were resubmitted and the process repeated. No one knows for sure how many cards or collectors were affected, but it is definitely a cause for concern as the extent of the problem can never fully be known nor totally resolved. If PSA were to make known the serial numbers of cards graded for WIWAG, that would be at least some help, but so far that hasn't happened, AFAIK. Of course, that wouldn't include any cards graded by other people that passed through their hands.

    Rare Grady Sizemore parallels, printing plates, autographs

    I am fairly confident that such a list exists (even if it is a partial list). However, that list has not been released to the public, as far as I know.
    I am actively buying MIKE SCHMIDT gem mint baseball cards. Also looking for any 19th century cabinets of Philadephia Nationals. Please PM with additional details.

    Is there anybody out there with any idea how many vintage hockey
    cards WIWAG sold ?

    I've heard of pghsportscards doing the same thing with some hockey cards.
    I saw that guy sell two (8) Orr rookies that looked like 7's or 6's.

    I'd be interested to hear how many hockey cards WIWAG did.
