Losses on the sale of stock or securities (or contract or option to acquire or sell such) are not deductible if, within a period beginning 30 days before the sale and ending 30 days after the date of the sale, the taxpayer acquires or has entered into a contract or option to acquire stock or securities that are substantially identical.

Stocks or securities of the same issuer are substantially identical if they are same in all important particulars.

The above info is from Reasearch Institute of America. I think you would have a wash sale under the circumstances you described.

LOL
