That one really has nothing going for it: creased, worn, writing on the back, common back. But it did have his full mustache.

Seems like a ridiculous amount for such a common card.

i figured the miscut would add to the "value"... strange. Thought it would get at least $150.

$50 less if nothing....I lose that much on cards every single day. Now if it sold for $5-$10, then that is thread worthy!

and I am surprised it didn't go for a little more given the stay line on back, near the bottom.

I just sold an Old Mill Titus that had basically no back for $100.. I think this was just cheap.

Do not underestimate the surge in demand when Bill G. switched his avatar.

I agree with Tim.. I don't understand the Titus hype like a lot of people, but if this was a regular common, it probably would have sold for $10-15....

I don't think it's slowing at all and have noticed a few others names that prices have been going up on seemingly common or near common players. All portraits. This Titus is just ridiculous though when a beater garners 100 anything is possible.

Ridiculous price for a beater common. This buyer seems to have an unlimited bankroll when it comes to Titus cards. I think he'll soon realize they're too common to monopolize the entire Titus market to artificially inflate prices.

Every time I see Titus mentioned I chuckle. It reminds me of the story that when he ran it was with a somewhat unusually choppy look that garnered him a special nickname for back in the day.

Tight ass.

I'll take titties for $100.

That's "Titus" Mr. Connery.

Not much for the ladies are you, Trebek...
